跨越山海向未来｜“西”江千户苗寨：世界最大苗族聚居村落 Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village: The World's Largest Miao Settlement

“黄小西吃晚饭”——“西”指的是西江千户苗寨。

The phrase "Huang Xiao Xi Chi Wan Fan" (黄小西吃晚饭) is a clever Chinese homophonic reference to six of Guizhou's most iconic attractions. The word “西”(pronouncing "Xi", meaning “west”) is for the “西(Xi)”in “西江千户苗寨(Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village）”.

位于贵州省黔东南苗族侗族自治州雷山县，西江千户苗寨是中国现存规模最大、保存最完整的苗族聚居村落，素有“露天博物馆”“中国苗都”和“中国最美的苗寨”的美誉。

Nestled in Leishan County, Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou Province, the Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village stands as China's largest and most intact surviving Miao ethnic settlement. Renowned as an "open-air museum," "China's Miao capital," and "the most beautiful Miao village in China," it epitomizes cultural preservation.

全寨现有1468户、6000余人，99.5%为苗族村民。千余座吊脚楼依山而建，气势恢宏；白水河穿寨而过，将西江苗寨一分为二，形成“山水楼田共生”的壮丽景观。

The village comprises 1,468 households with over 6,000 residents, 99.5% of whom are indigenous Miao people. Thousands of stilted houses cascade down the mountainsides, encircled by undulating peaks. The Baishui Riverbisects the village, forging a majestic landscape where mountains, waters, architecture, and terraced fields coexist in harmony.

作为世界最大的苗族聚居地，西江千户苗寨拥有深厚的苗族文化底蕴。这里汇聚了苗年、苗绣、银饰锻造等13项国家级非物质文化遗产。苗年以“长桌宴”为盛，数百米宴席延展村寨；苗绣以色彩浓烈、纹样古朴著称，银饰工艺精湛，“银匠村”远近闻名。

As the world's largest Miao community, Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village safeguards profound cultural legacies. It preserves 13 national-level intangible cultural heritage elements, including the Miao New Year, Miao embroidery, and silverware craftsmanship. The Miao New Year culminates in the iconic "Long Table Feast," where banquet tables stretch hundreds of meters through the village. Miao embroidery dazzles with vibrant hues and archaic motifs, while the village'ssilver artisans—honed through generations—have earned its reputation as the Silver Artisans' Village.

当暮色浸染群山，吊脚楼的轮廓被万盏灯火勾勒，层层叠叠的星光坠入河谷，与横跨河面的风雨桥交相辉映。这般奇幻景象，恰似走进了宫崎骏笔下《千与千寻》的世界。

At dusk, as twilight bathes the mountains, thousands of lanterns outline the stilted houses. Cascading starlight reflects in the river valley, intertwining with the illuminated wind-and-rain bridges arching over the water. This ethereal scene evokes the mystical realm of Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away.
