Deep in the misty mountains of Guizhou Province lies Jiaju Village—a living postcard of Miao culture. Known for its iconic diaojiaolou (wooden stilt houses) that seem to float above the earth, this centuries-old settlement is framed by the Jiabang Rice Terraces, a cascading masterpiece of agricultural artistry. 🌱
Perched 800 meters above sea level, locals call it the 'Pearl on the Terraces'—and it’s easy to see why. Farmers here work in sync with nature, maintaining terraces that mirror the curves of the landscape like liquid staircases. For travelers and culture buffs, it’s a harmony of heritage and ecology worth adding to your #BucketList. ✨
