The Dai people like to live by the water, love cleanliness, and often bathe, so they are called the 'water people'. The Manfeilong Pagoda in the scenic area is the most dazzling. It is a long-standing and large-scale religious building, composed of the main pagoda and eight small pagodas. Because it is white as snow, it is also called the 'White Pagoda'. The Dong people are mainly distributed in the Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou Province. The Drum Tower is a unique building in the scenic area. The Drum Tower is all made of anti-corrosive wood structure, without a nail or a mortise. Standing there, standing tall, majestic, like a pagoda. In terms of the momentum of the ancient Qing Dynasty, the architecture of the Manchu area can be described as magnificent, like a miniature of the Forbidden City. The area is not large, but every craft can reflect the majesty and spirit of the Manchu in its heyday. Let the spirit and culture of the Chinese dragon be fully demonstrated. There are many ethnic groups in the park that are full of characteristics, and each ethnic group has its own story and background, which is worth our little discovery and excavation of its charm.
