Day 2: Guiyang-Kaili
After breakfast, we drive to Kaili, the capital city of the Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Southeast Guizhou. Today’s first stop is Shiqiao Miao Village, which is famous for its ancient craft of paper-making. The ancient traditional production methods can be traced back to the Tang dynasty (618–907). Learn how to make paper together with a local family.

After a lunch break, we continue on to Matang Gejia Village to visit the small ethnic group known as the Gejia people. The Gejia people of Matang adore the bow and arrow.
