Guiyang – The City

Guiyang is the capital of Guizhou Province, located in the southwest of China, on the eastern side of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Guiyang is famous for its colorful culture represented by diverse ethnic groups. Mountains and plateaus make up about 65% of Guizhou’s topography. The terrain is surrounded with underground rivers, jagged peaks, dramatic valleys, and beautiful terraced rice fields. Guizhou has spectacular waterfalls, national forests, and breath-taking scenery. The city’s primary tourist attractions are Qianlinghsna Mountain, Lake Qianling, the Huaxi scenic area, the Huangguoshu falls, and the Dragon Palace.

After 6:30pm every night, the street stands will begin filling the streets with amazing aroma and mouthwatering snacks. Guiyang people prefer spicy food, so hot pepper is indispensable to Guiyang dishes. The Vinegar Bar is one of Guiyang’s special nightlife destinations. As the name suggests, the Vinegar Bar offers vinegar drinks, usually with a fruity flavor or with special material like the sticky rice and pearl powder.
