Bǎozimen! I discovered a heavenly secret place in Enshi — Pengjiazhai!!

After twisting and turning along the mountain road, a scattered group of stilt houses suddenly appeared before my eyes. With their blue-tiled wooden walls, wisps of smoke, and the sounds of chickens and dogs, I instantly felt like I had traveled back a hundred years! The stilt house complex here is extremely well-preserved and is known as a "living fossil of Tujia architecture." Even the roof tiles are handmade by old craftsmen! 📸 3 must-see photo spots: Zhaizhai Viewing Platform: Take a panoramic view from top to bottom. The stilt house complex is faintly visible in the green mountains and rivers, creating a perfect ink painting! Wind and Rain Bridge: Stand on the bridge and take a reflection shot. Wear light-colored clothes, and let the wind blow your skirt. The atmosphere is instantly full! Second floor of the old wooden building: Open the carved wooden door, lean against the railing, and take a side view. Behind you are the simple eaves and distant mountains. It's amazing! 🎋 Addictive non-heritage experience! This wave is a great deal In the village, you can experience a lot of Tujia intangible cultural heritage with your own hands. The main point is that it's all free!! Making Ciba: Swing the wooden hammer with the old woman. The hot Ciba is covered with soybean flour. One bite is soft, glutinous, fragrant, and sweet, bursting with happiness! Xilankapu Brocade Weaving: Follow the embroiderer to learn how to weave ribbons. Although clumsy, the finished product is very fulfilling! Nuoxi Mask Painting: Color the mask with paint. After painting, you can take it home as a souvenir~ 🍲 The food in the village is amazing! An average of CNY 30 will fill you up Don't miss the farmhouse meals in the village! The ingredients are all grown by the old woman herself, and they are original! Stewed Pork with Preserved Meat and Potatoes: The smoked preserved meat is fat and lean, and the potatoes are full of gravy. It's so fragrant that you'll want to lick the plate! Shefan: Glutinous rice mixed with artemisia, diced preserved meat. One bite is full of fragrance, and you can eat two bowls in a row! Oil Tea Soup: The salty and fragrant tea soup is served with fried rice and peanuts, making the whole person feel warm. Avoidance Guide! Transportation: Don't drive by yourself! The mountain road is too winding! It is recommended to book a one-day tour group in Enshi, which is very worry-free with round-trip transportation! Consumption in the village: The Tujia cloth shoes and bamboo woven baskets sold by the old woman are very affordable, so feel free to buy them! Best time: The light is best before 9am or after 4pm, and you can also avoid the crowds~
