Yesterday, we enjoyed the waterfall and ancient bridge with each other, while today, I’d like to invite all of you to the visit of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village with me.
昨天，我们共同欣赏了瀑布和古桥，而今天，我想邀请大家和我一起去西江千户苗寨参观。
Located in Nangui Village, Xijiang Town, Leshan County, Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province, the Miao Village consists of more than ten natural villages built on the mountains, surrounded by mountains on all sides, with terraced rice paddies that follow the mountains to the clouds, and the Baishui River running through the village.
西江千户苗寨位于贵州省黔东南苗族侗族自治州雷山县西江镇南贵村。它由十余个依山而建的自然村寨相连成片，四面环山，梯田依山顺势直连云天，还有白水河穿寨而过。
More than 1,000 households in the Xijang Qianhu Miao Village have built their own unique wooden hanging towers halfway up the mountain. Additionally, it is hailed as an open-air museum, exhibiting an epic poem of the development of the Miao people, becoming a grand stand for appreciating and studying the traditional culture of the Miao people.
西江千户苗寨里有千余户半山建造独具特色的木结构吊脚楼。西江千户苗寨被誉为是一座露天博物馆，展览着一部苗族发展史诗，成为观赏和研究苗族传统文化的大看台。
The first thing worth mentioning when you come to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is the Long Table Banquet, which is the highest form of Miao banquet and grand ritual. That has a history of several thousand years, which can be launched for the wedding, the village fellowship activity and so forth. During the banquet, the hosts and guests are seated opposite each other, toasting and singing to each other.
来到西江千户苗寨，首先值得一提的就是长桌宴了。长桌宴是苗族宴席的最高形式与隆重礼仪，已有几千年的历史。通常用于婚礼、村寨联谊宴饮活动等。长桌宴上主客相对，敬酒劝饮并对酒高歌。
Actually, the view from the top of the Miao Village is the most spectacular. Look! Thousands of sparkling lights are telling a myriad of stories to tourists.
事实上，从苗寨的山顶上观赏的景是最壮观的。你看! 千万灯火正在向游客讲述故事。
Up to now, the travel has come to an end. As the world of feasting and the sea of lights, Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village always looks forward to your arrival.
到现在为止，本次旅行已经结束了。西江千户苗寨，这盛宴的世界和灯光的海洋，期待着您的到来。
