Fenghuang Ancient Town
Fenghuang (Phoenix) Ancient Town in western Hunan Province is one of China's most picturesque historic river towns, a Ming and Qing Dynasty-era settlement of wooden stilt houses perched above the Tuojiang River, connected by ancient stone-slab streets and festooned with lanterns. The town is home to the Miao ethnic minority whose embroidery, silver jewelry, and batik crafts fill its market lanes. Arriving by boat at dawn, when mist rises from the river and the stilted houses are reflected in the calm water, is one of China's most evocative travel experiences.
