Xiaohuang Dong village has long been known as the "hometown of Dong songs" and "music paradise" in the world. It's really interesting to travel there. The residents of Xiaohuang village are all of Dong nationality. In the past, we often used "hometown of poetry, ocean of songs" to describe the situation that minority areas are good at singing, and this description only used in Xiaohuang Dong Township may make people feel worthy of the name. Because everyone in Xiaohuang village can sing and loves singing, and there are more than 20 formal singing teams in the village, with more than 1000 members. Such a situation is obviously rare in other places.

Xiaohuang includes Xiaohuang, gaohuang and Xinqian, with more than 600 households and 3000 people. Xiao Huang's Dong song is very famous in Dong Township, which is called "Ga Xiao Huang" in Dong language, namely "Xiao Huang's song".

"The hometown of Dong songs", "the hometown of Chinese folk art" and "Qingquan shimmering", no matter how beautiful these names are, they are not as pleasant as Xiao Huang's songs. Deep in the mountains, Xiao Huang's communication with the outside world is very limited. The whole village has maintained a relatively primitive style, and many ancient customs have been well preserved. Singing big songs is one of them.

Xiao Huang's Dong girls are not only very good at singing, but also very enthusiastic. For the request of distant guests to listen to songs, their answer is to let you sit on their knees and listen to them sing. This simple custom often makes tourists at a loss. In fact, it's better to do as the Romans do. In Xiaohuang, returning to nature is the best choice.

Tourism information

Xiaohuang Dong village is known as "the hometown of poetry and the ocean of songs". It is a Dong village surrounded by mountains and flowing by a small river. Hundreds of wooden buildings are built according to the water. Inside and outside the village, there are songs everywhere. Songs are their language and songs are their history.

In the early 1980s, a French musician named Louis dangdeler came to the Dong village to pick up the wind. After listening to the singing of Dong's big songs in a village in Southeast Guizhou, he was full of praise and thought it was immortal music. So in October 1986, at the Paris golden autumn festival, he invited nine Dong girls to Paris to sing Dong's big songs. It is said that the nine girls sang for an hour, After listening to the Dong People's song, even the executive chairman of the festival said excitedly: "in the east of Asia, a minority with only a few hundred thousand people can create and preserve such an ancient, pure and shining folk chorus art, which is rare in the world."

This village is Xiao Huang. Since then, Xiao Huang's Dong songs have appeared frequently in CCTV Spring Festival Gala, Universiade Gala, Beijing Concert Hall and other major performances at home and abroad, and won the praise of hundreds of millions of audiences.
