The last gunman tribe in China

In Basha, the Miao language calls the Lusheng Festival 'Nugaka'. During the Lusheng Festival, the people of Basha celebrate the harvest days, and it is also a romantic time for young people to express their feelings, exchange emotions, and communicate with each other. On this day, everyone plays the lusheng to worship the eastern slope, praying for the blessing of the ancestors~ The sound of the lusheng echoes through the mountains, and once again, we are moved by the faith and traditional culture of the Miao people! If you come to Guizhou, Basha is a Miao village that is very worth visiting! Located in the lofty mountains of Congjiang County in Qiandongnan Prefecture, it is primitive, mysterious, simple, and natural. The rite of passage for boys here starts with a sickle and an axe, where experienced elders shave the boys' heads with a curved sickle in just a few strokes, marking the distinctive Basha Miao male hairstyle, an ancient and unique custom. The Miao people of Basha dress in bright cloth as the base, with colorful embroidered decorations and silver ornaments throughout, both gorgeous and sacred~ Don't miss this interesting and ancient village when you come to Guizhou! Congjiang Lusheng Festival time: Every year in the eleventh lunar month (The time varies for each village, arranged according to the situation of the village each year) 📍Basha Miao Village, Congjiang County, Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province
