From soaring mountains to China's highest waterfall to unexplored jungles to unique culture, Guizhou offers visitors with a variety of things to explore. Its capital, Guiyang, is known as the "world's summer resort" due to its moderate temperature.

Guiyang is one of those places where even a one-week stay is far from enough. Some of the major attractions near the city include Qianling Mountain Park, the ancient town of Qingyan and Hongfeng Lake where the leaves on maple trees turn red during fall.

Local people can find a sense of belonging here due to the pleasant climate all year round and peaceful everyday living.

Local people often start the day with eating Changwang Noodles, one of the most popular snacks in the city. Chang and Wang refers to the slices of pig intestines and blood, and also implies auspiciousness in Chinese. [Photo/gzdsw.com]

Enjoying the many varieties of local teas and appreciating the opera performance at a tea house make for an important part of local people's leisurely life.
