You Qiandongnan in December alone, northern Guangxi, which lasted 20 days, time control is relatively loose, and the economically more savings, by Guiyang - Anshun (Huangguoshu) - Carey - Ray Hill - Rongjiang - Congjiang - Sanjiang - Longsheng (terrace) - Guilin - Yangshuo - Guilin. Does not include air tickets, shared 1760 yuan, but that there are 400 yuan is used to buy batik, and embroidery.
Because the weather is cold and inappropriate activities such as rafting, so give Xiaoqi Kong, water, spring River Landscapes, mainly went to some ethnic villages, although not catch up with any holiday, it is very simple kind-hearted locals, so I had a thoroughly enjoyed. Qiandongnan Although road conditions are not ideal, but for self-help single tourists, as long as you do not halo car, the basic convenience of transportation. However, rainy days and at night in Guizhou recommended not to travel as far as possible, because mountain quite a lot of very bad road conditions and sometimes feel less secure.
Because it is off-season, I Qiandongnan of 10 days, a self-help tourists did not come across, to Guangxi after, although the weather is poor, people have a lot more. If there is sufficient time to something in the warm season to follow this line should be better, there are mountains of water, another national conditions and customs, the voyage took a few days after the cultivation of Yangshuo, and then go home. Or the Spring Festival is also good, you can see Bull and other festive events. If it is not receiving the usual tours, ethnic minorities in order to Ganhuo convenience, often wear Han clothing.
In my personal experience, non-holiday season to the southeast of Guizhou, instead of taking a lot of ethnic minority villages, it is better over long he will stay in a village. Although the tourist information on to say that each village has its own characteristics, but if not a professional or a folklore researcher, in fact, do not see any difference. And usually a lot of villages in a hurry at a glance, in addition to Mulou, and Han villages is almost the same. However, if we can have the time and further contact with the locals, you will find a lot of people even in those who have been referred to as "has been commercialized" of the village, people are still maintained a lot of tradition, but also have a strong national consciousness, even if they would be speak Mandarin, wearing a Han Chinese clothing.
Gossip the less, here is my run-length and consumption, only for your reference.

Who are interested they can also be rented at the hotel near the house go dig, but they saw dazzling MM FIXED MACHINE, remember to control the desire to buy things to avoid overdraft wallet. I was almost become a negative typical, almost all the money on the outside to give them a dig. If you are particularly business-minded, you can also buy a number of back to Shanghai reselling, and said to be able to travel toll earned back.
By Public Pakistan (1 million) to Huambo, visited the national museums, 10 yuan worth. Because on the first floor is a furniture town, Tibetan antelope that can be directly entered, but now on the second floor was guarded, and no one to visit when the museum was locked, so not a fare-beating.
I do not eat tomatoes, so there is no taste Carey Suantang Yu, dinner on the road to eat goose Beijing powder, 3 yuan, 1 yuan Canadian goose, the taste is very fresh.
December 12 river boat ride public transportation Carey matang Pakistan (1 million), and asked the conductor where to take the car to go matang, in a food market next to the train station. (Sorry, did not know that the name of the station) Take the car to the Yudong to matang, 3 yuan, and get off at the junction, take the 20 minutes into the leather at home stockade. Some people say that home is the Miao a leather, but they consider themselves an independent nation, the 56 ethnic groups other than the nation. If you happen to encounter tours can be seen singing and dancing performances. Walled hung tourist reception points within the brand of people can stay, eat rice farmers (usually 15 yuan tour, I have to pay 5 yuan for yourself), drink rice wine, see the leather-like weapons at home to 18 ethnic characteristics of clothing. They will sell their own batik, embroidery and silver, belts, if the buy, to bargain.
Backtrack Kerry, at the same station, river boat ride to the Green Man of the car, boat river and get off at 2 yuan. There is a big river boat Lusheng field, hit festivals will be very busy, but usually it seems apart from the Miao Mulou do not see any ethnic characteristics.

Junction with the Lang De tourism map, the river walk for 20 minutes, passing under the stockade Langde the way beautiful scenery. Live Langde Miao Village Guest House, more human, 6 yuan / bed and, of course, and a few days ago, as is in fact a single. Guest House on the floor in front of the drum is a converted warehouse, followed by phone with IC. Can not be a bath, guest houses in the tube's home for dinner, I eat four tons, he wanted 15 yuan.
Villagers can inquire about tours to the time, because to the previous Langde are many tours, I one day when they received three Quanzhai of all ages dressed, from the highway to the wine song and dance performances, I have seen sick. There are three on the Langde Zhai Men, the hillside across the river can shoot panoramic views of the village. Children often play in the bridge, and sometimes you take pictures, they will ask for money, but only talk about, give sugar will make them happy.
If you touch the visitors have arrived to what festival, first ask Can watch to participate in, what are taboo. Some of these activities is to keep outsiders Hmong ghost teachers to read. If you see the grass on the way into the Walled knot, it's a stockade at this time does not welcome guests.
December 15 Ray Hill - Rongjiang back roads, stopped the car to Ray Hill, 3 yuan. I had thought of Ray Hill one night to a nearby row of Ray Hill card (Lusheng Village), water and electricity (with water tankers) and the Xijiang River (the largest Hmong neighborhood) look. To find the county government guest houses, it was found is privately owned, and the cheapest room was also canceled. I then thought that these places will be the same as the river boat, then walked hurriedly do not see something special, so be hailed in the Grand Cross of the directly to the Rongjiang, 25.
Ray Hill to Rongjiang the road is my journey the most difficult way to go, all dirt road, every five meters Shui Po, a bend, but there is fog on the road. If the event of rain, more difficult to go. Apart from traffic aside, along the scenery is not bad. Later I heard that in the Rongjiang, because this route is not a national highway, they had no money to repair, but from the way Duyun to Rongjiang trying to fix, fix later, from Kerry to Rongjiang will be a lot easier. Motors more than five hours before reaching the Rongjiang.
Live near the Blue Sky Hotel bus station, 40 yuan, standard room, no air conditioning.
December 16 Rongjiang - Congjiang walk over the bridge to the car Rongjiang Jiang Dong Zhai. Car Dong Jiang Dong Zhai is the largest neighborhood, known as the "1000 Dong", now divided into 10 villages. Because the Drum Tower is wooden, the Dong people have a habit of light a fire inside the Drum Tower, the Drum Tower is why many Dongzhai post-modern renovation of a fire, car Jiang Drum Dynasty. Is relatively old. Village were being repaired Drum Tower, but because of lack of money, only to repair the top.
Take a small 3 1 yuan, the driver will you put a "best in the world Dongzhai" in front of the Village, if you entered but also income from this Zhaimen 5 yuan tickets. There is another one inside the Drum Tower and the statue of Qin Niang America. In fact, this Zhai Men, and the Drum Tower was revised last year, and that any one path from the village can be worn inside look at the Drum Tower, do not have to pay the ticket. River there are many of the old banyan tree, the river road is cobbled, known as "Flower Street", will be submerged during the rainy season. Flower Street side of the Dong people opened a souvenir shop, in fact, selling is their daily necessities, do not buy can be a good look, guess a lot of things not seen what useful. Heard in the government reform plan, the Flower Street to expand into a tourist street, their house must be moved backward. But because it is made of wood, as long as breaking up and re-assembled on the list. Dong's home there used to weave cloth weaving machines, you can see the old lady weaving and spinning.
Rongjiang to Congjiang, 15 yuan. Dragon House Hotel near the bus station to live, 40 yuan, standard rooms, no air-conditioning, shower. Must not live in the street the room, not only noisy car on the road, but the other hotels are across the Kara OK.
December 17 Congjiang Basha high by up early, according to Tibetan antelope said to give a lift truck to the bus station to find Basha, was rushed to empty. Tibetan antelope Congjiang to say that all the cars passing Rongjiang Basha, but now has been revised down a new road, all the cars do not go the road of Basha. I started also did not give up, ask someone else Basha into what the county by car, and the answers: They walk, never ride, because not used will be motion sickness. So dingy collected from the River Bridge, the pack of a small business in the bridge and other CMB, 30 yuan, round-trip. If you do not wish to chartered, you can also Congjiang Rongjiang to discuss the vehicle and the driver, so that the way he Basha Shui Po 1. Have to see if he can come back to the crossing stopped car.
Basha is a Miao Village in order to strange men's hairstyle is known from the county there are only 20 minutes by car. There were the Japanese that the Basha of their ancestors, because the Japanese samurai hairstyle and very much like a man in Basha. Now stockade had already been some kind of tradition is no longer comb hair, and the local tourism sector in the stockade where repair of the stone roads and signs, but Basha primitive people still living a very difficult life, with the manpower to fight millet, winter kids but barefoot, Mulou is what I see the most dilapidated in Guizhou. Village, towering trees, picturesque. There are hemp rope swing to do It's terrific.
May be met face to face camera for money, although in small quantities (sometimes only 5 angle). I did not give, if the other side to prevent shoot, not shot. Sometimes miss some "good shot", but each has his own criteria, their grasp bar.
Back to Congjiang, take a small 3 to the crossing, 1 yuan, ferry, 3 angle, ride motorcycles or small, 3, 3 yuan, to a high increase Dongzhai. Increases and the Drum Tower and the Boasting high. Walled entrance with hotels and restaurants, 5 yuan / day, public bathrooms, not a bath. But high by not far from the town, can not live. There are two not far from the high-Zeng Dong Zhai, walking may be from, but also the Drum Tower, one of which is also used in bullfighting Pan raises the New Year.
December 18 -21 days Yinliang next few days I have been living the high-liang of silver by the following villages, first, because the rain has been bad way to go, and second, because the master is too warm. Although only meet by chance, but it makes Shengqingnanque. So wear clothes in the stockade where Luanhuang Dong, followed by young people to take the girl, listen to them a lot to talk with the Dong-a hot, but one did not understand. With great difficulty until the storm is over, because in Dong stockade stayed too long, but also tired of, or Xiao Huang Liping has.
This is the accident, the normal travel plans should go to Xiao Huang and Chao-hsing.
December 22 Sanjiang - Dragon's Back Congjiang to Sanjiang, 15 yuan. 7 o'clock in the morning by climbing, was later 8:00 Congjiang to Guilin to catch up with the car. In fact, the cars stopped to Guilin Sanjiang, but also air-conditioning (very cold morning and the mountains).

Dragon's Back tickets 30 yuan, like free riders can ride to peace, from the Dragon's Back climb the route of the ancient Zhuang Jin-Ping Zhai Zhai, but is said to be two or three hours, scenery should be good.
Ping village, almost every family who runs a hotel, conditions, price or less. Because I have the car, met Ammon, so went to her home, hot shower, feeling pretty good. Her family bought the computer, Internet connection. However, encountered good weather, living in hotels a higher vision should be better. I live in room 10 / day, followed by the owner to eat for two days paid 40 yuan. If you want to eat bamboo-tube rice (15 million), bacon, voles will be more expensive meat course. Ping Village is Zhuang, relatively modern, telephone, TV, water heaters, washing machines, gas is no shortage of everything, and Guizhou, the strong contrast between some of the village. The village drinking water is water from the hills with bamboo, the next spring.
When I was bad weather on the 1st spots on the spots and fog on the 2nd large, surrounded by a vast expanse of whiteness, so it did not go to Dazhai. Frequently encountered in spots on the Red Yao women selling things, lead the way to see if hair may need to pay. However, is not absolute, and I saw the hair for free.
December 24 Dragon's Back - Guilin - Yangshuo waited a day, fog, or large, had to come down. Take the shuttle bus to the intersection of peace, 5 yuan, stopped the car to Guilin, 11 yuan. There Longsheng Hot Spring, if you plan, the best first go there, because the Dragon's Back in Longsheng and Guilin between to avoid turning back.

To send packets at the train station, 2 yuan, in Guilin in turn a bit, eat a snack in Guilin.
Guilin to Yangshuo, 7.5 yuan. Usually you pull the car to be confronted with hotel guests, but fortunately Yangshuo hotels are generally well equipped at reasonable prices. You can follow to see, are not satisfied and then hire their own. Season when the first book better. I live in the Golden Harbor ,0773-8820802, not West, the standard rooms, showers, 30 yuan / day. Single visitors can eat with the boss at home. Guides, too, if you do not want to go trail riding, as long as to buy a map on the list.

December 25-26 Yangshuo Yangshuo StrategiesChinaInc on too much, and I played with the relationship between the weather was not thoroughly enjoyed themselves, so just want to say a few words. Something expensive on the West not tasty, if many people still go to stand next to eat, if few people want to save money, they eat noodle, 1.5 yuan a bowl, cheaper than Guizhou, but also with the their own preferences plus sauerkraut, peppers and other spices. Yulong River rafting has official control, and a price of 240 yuan / raft, a raft two.
