Guizhou is part of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in China’s South. The mountainous province has little arable land, even though the climate is mild and the rainfall adequate. That doesn’t mean that the landscape is less breathtaking than its neighbor provinces’ Yunnan, Sichuan and Guangxi. It shows you green valleys, impressing waterfalls and beautiful limestone peaks and is home to China’s biggest waterfall and underground cave.
Guizhou contains more than 15 minority groups that – due to the very slow modernization of this province – especially in the rural areas still live in a very traditional way. Their colorful costumes, unique houses and strong customs let one forget the modern urban China quickly. Especially during one of their numerous festivals, like the Sister’s meal festival.
One of the most famous minorities are the Miao with their special costumes, hairstyles and traditions. |

Ethnicity: Tujia
Hometown: Guiyang, Guizhou, China
Dennis graduated from Guizhou Ethnic University and has worked as a tour guide for European and North American travelers for 8 years. A remote and underdeveloped region of China, Guizhou is still unknown to most tourists. Dennis says that Guizhou people, like him, are all relatively short while very warm and hospitable. He hopes more people could visit here and is very pleased with guiding CCC's guests, who he feels are well-educated and cultural people. |
