Miaovillage
1,400 wooden stilt houses stacked up the hillside, unchanged for 1,000 years.
We don't stay in the chain hotel at the village entrance. We stay inside the village, in a wooden stilt house guesthouse, so you can experience the village after the day-tripper buses leave.

At 8am, before the first tour buses roll in, the stone lanes are quiet, the shop shutters are still closed, and you can walk through the village without anyone trying to sell you a souvenir. Stay inside the village, not in the chain hotel at the entrance.
"After the day tripper buses left at 7pm, the whole village went quiet, just the lights on the hillside and crickets. I drank home-brewed rice wine with the guesthouse owner's grandma, and it was the most memorable night of my whole China trip."
