Color of Guizhou 7D

Guizhou, one of China’s lesser known provinces and best kept secrets, Opened to tourists in the late 1980s. This is one of the most beautiful provinces, offering dramatic karst limestone scenery, a spectacular plateau landscape cut by great gorges and canyons, terraced hillsides and enchanting vistas. The many attractions include waterfalls, untouched forests alive with rare species of plants and animals, underground cave complexes and caverns with superb displays of Stalactites and stalagmites resembling great fluted cascading curtains.
Here are some of the most superb examples in Asia, offering tremendous potential for hikers, potholers and nature lovers.
Guizhou is a multicultural province with third largest ethnic population in China. Forty-eight distinct ethnic groups live alongside Han Chinese who have migrated there from all regions of the country. The variety of ethnic groups living in Guizhou makes up 36 per cent of the total population of 40 million. A major charm of the province for travelers is the number of festivals, resplendent with color and suffused with music, that take place throughout the year and that remain an important part of continuing traditional lifestyles and customs.
