Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village (2024)

Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, located in Qiandongnan Miao and Dong autonomous prefecture, Guizhou province, is the largest Miao ethnic village in China. The village has over a thousand special wooden houses, namely diaojiaolou, rising and falling with the terrain. Over six thousand people live in the village, preserving many traditional Miao customs such as dances, songs, festivals, cuisine, ethnic clothing, and Miao farming practices, reflecting the development of the Miao ethnicity. The village is a living museum where visitors can experience the customs and folk traditions of the Chinese ethnic minority. Currently, Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village has introduced Mixed Reality technology for tourism. In this way, visitors can tour the village while engaging in corresponding environmental games such as treasure hunting, immersing themselves in Miao folk customs and unique culture. This can contribute to target 4.7 of SDG 4 (Quality Education), allowing visitors to appreciate the unique culture of Chinese ethnic minorities. It can also promote sustainable tourism, as the digital application may create more local job opportunities and attract more visitors to the village. This is beneficial for achieving target 8.9 of SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth).
