Village draws urban visitors with Tujia culture

Yunshe draws tourists with its amicable weather, natural beauty and ethnic culture. Visitors can feast their eyes on the green scenery once they set foot in the village that sits in Jiangkou county, Guizhou province, at the foot of the Fanjing Mountain.

One can appreciate folk songs and dances of the local Tujia community, ancient papermaking techniques and a wetland park at close quarters, while taking in the "mysterious" Shenlongtan, to the east of Yunshe. The spring water at the scenic spot sometimes flows backward and the Tujia people use it to predict the weather.

Many travelers have been charmed by the primitive natural atmosphere of Yunshe, where women wash clothes by a creek, and men remove weeds on river banks with a sickle. Children chase one another.
