Forums > Travel Yunnan > Lead you to spend a traditional festival with Yi people

Hello,Everyone who is interested in minority culture in Yunnan
I am Ann,a local guide who have been to more than 100 minority villages and got good contact with people there in remote areas of Chuxiong,Puer,Xishuanbanna,Dali,Yuxi,and Honghe prefectures in Yunnan in last 2 years.

There will be a traditional Spring festival of Yi people on Dec.18th in a village with beautiful nature secnery in Honghe area,Yunnan.I want to group 1 to 6 people(different price to pay according to numble of people) to travel and spend festival there.You will experience original daily life of Yi people who still wear their traditional costume,you will listen to their beautiful folk songs and join in their traditional Yi dancing,you also will hike 8km to reach the village.This is not a touristic place but definitely worth to explore the original feelings.This will be a two days trip,unless you also hope to see rice terrece in another Hani village.We will take bus to our destination unless we decide to rent a car!
Call me if you are eager to touch something authentic which you've never seen in any media.
