Zhoucheng Village, Xizhou It is the "largest natural village of the Bai nationality in the country" with a permanent population of more than 10,000 people, of which 99% are Bai nationality.

Compared with the bustling Xizhou, Zhoucheng is the place that truly belongs to the Bai people in Southern Dali :
1. Tie-dye workshops in every household;
2. Bai ethnic clothing stores can be found everywhere on the main street;
3. The true birthplace of Bai ethnic group's three-course tea ;
4. The largest village in Yunnan Province and the largest natural village of the Bai nationality in China;
5. Embroidery, Torch Festival, Longquan Temple, Rice Planting Fair, Du Chaoxuan, the Hero Who Killed the Mang, Ancient Tea Horse Road, Eight Great Bowls of Bai Nationality, so many keywords together draw a more complete picture of the life of Bai Nationality in Erhai Lake . Follow our footsteps and walk into Zhoucheng together. 👣

The estimated route of the Torch Festival under the big green tree at the entrance of Zhoucheng Village is:
Xiayixi-Yunzuo Silver Embroidery Workshop-Zhilan Tie-Dye-Baisuulu Bai Nationality Folk Customs Experience Hall-Jingdi Temple-Longquan Temple-Lanxu Tie-Dye-Bai Nationality Steamed Cake House-Daqingshu & Ancient Theater-Zhuriwan Street-Puzhen Tie-Dye Museum-Zhen Gu Caravan Museum

The above two pictures are from an article on the WeChat public account "Dali Culture and Tourism", titled “Go where there is wind and experience the most beautiful scenery.” The Bai costumes and embroidery in the play "Go Where the Wind Is" all come from her workshop.

On the side of the dye vat is a picture of the Bai ethnic group's "Dye Vat God" pulled by horses, with "Mei (Fu) and Ge (Hong) two immortals" on the picture. This photo was taken in Lanxu, Dali.
