Zhaoxing Halal Travel Guide

Zhaoxing (肇兴) is a pretty Dong minority town nestling in a valley a long way away from anywhere. It's full of old wooden buildings, wind and rain bridges, and drum towers, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. It's had a bit of the government sponsored "Chinese Minority Village" makeover, but is nowhere near as reconstructed as the other towns in the vicinity.

The local people will refer to this place as Shaoxing and having the name written down will be useful.

The new motorway is now finished and open to traffic. The nearest exit is Congjiang East which is just outside a town called Luoxiang (洛香) which itself is less than 10km from Zhaoxing, although the road between the two is currently in a terrible condition (probably due to the high volume of construction vehicles passing through the area).

Travel as a Muslim to Zhaoxing

Zhaoxing7 - |Zhaoxing Village All access to the village is by bus. The Guiyang to Guangzhou high speed rail can get you to Congjiang or Rongjiang very quickly and is an excellent option if travelling onwards from Yangshuo, Guilin or Chengyang. From the Congjiang high-speed train station, shuttle vanes (¥20) make the 7km journey to Zhaoxing in about 15 minutes, with a short stop at the village's ticket booth where you have to pay admission (July 2018 100RMB, or 50RMB for Shanghai residents)

From Kaili. Take the bus from Congjiang (and consider stopping off either there or at the nearby Langde on the way) costs 55Y and takes about 7 hours.

From Congjiang (town, not station) and there are direct buses which take around 2 1/2 hours and cost ¥25.

From Sanjiang. Take the bus at HeXi bus station (河西汽车站), it takes around 3 1/2 hours and costs ¥72.

It is feasible to fly into Liping (via Guiyang, also infrequent Flights from Shanghai) and take a bus to Zhaoxing, via Liping town. The total ride is about 2 hours. First take the airport shuttle bus to liping (10RMB), which stops at a bus depot in Liping, and from there you can buy a ticket to Zhaoxing (around 20RMB and a journey of about 1 hour).

Buses cannot go inside the main tourist area, so when you get off the bus you will need to walk or take a tourist golf buggy to get to your hotel.

How to get around in Zhaoxing

It's a small town - walk! For those who are less mobile, regular free golf buggy-style buses run the length of the main street with frequent stops.

What to see in Zhaoxing

Zhaoxing5 - |Zhaoxing from a walking trail above

There are five old wooden drum towers and a few old wind and rain bridges scattered throughout town. They're best discovered by wandering through the back streets.

You can hike through the Rice paddies above the town. Guest-houses will be able to help with directions. The walk up the valley is particularly picturesque.

There's a lovely 3km walk from Zhaoxing up to the nearby village of Jitang (紀堂). And it is consistently uphill. They've a drum tower, nice old houses and a lot of peace and quiet and the villagers are lovely. There is at least one home-stay open there too - ask at the shops near the drum tower square for directions. The route from Zhaoxing is reasonably well signposted. Exit the village at the south east gate then follow the signs.

The village of Tang'an is a pretty village about 20 minutes drive from Zhaoxing, with buses leaving every hour from the East edge of the village. The cost is 20RMB and includes a return bus. From the bus stop it is a 10 minutes walk up to the village. The village is a better example of the local way of life than Zhaoxing since it is less developed for tourists, although there are a few restaurants and small shops there. Views from the village over the Rice fields are beautiful.

What to do in Zhaoxing

There is a surprisingly enjoyable nightly performance by the villagers of local songs and plays. Entry is included with your ticket to the village.

The town has a large museum of Dong culture, entry to which is free. Exhibits have good English translations.

From Zhaoxing to Sanjiang. There's no direct bus any more. Take the bus which passes through the village towards Sanjiang at around 8AM. It costs 16Y and takes you as far as a weak bridge. Change here to a Sanjiang bound bus. The road on the Zhaoxing side of the bridge is OK, but due to the construction traffic for the new motorway and express train tracks it's clogged with lorries. On the Guangxi side it's being resurfaced sporadically as of September 2009 - by the look of it, it will be complete by Christmas. It takes around 4 hours from Zhaoxing to Sanjiang in total.

From Zhaoxing to Guilin. Take the 8AM bus as above. Once at the bridge change to the Guilin bus. You'll have to be quick as they fill up fast. If you miss the direct Guilin bus take the Sanjiang bound bus and let the bus driver know you want to go to Guilin, and another bus will magically be waiting for you outside Sanjiang.

From "Zhaoxing to Congjiang" meets at 0730 near the drum tower. Look for 从江(Congjiang) on the bus. From Congjiang, one may travel to most destinations in the region.
