Ancient Fortress Folk Custom Tourism Area

　　The Ancient Fortress Folk Custom Tourism Area, a national AAA-level tourist attraction, is situated in the Gucha Mulao Ethnic Township of Liucheng County, in the northwest of Liucheng County. It is approximately 70 kilometers from Liuzhou City and 24 kilometers from the county seat, offering convenient transportation.

　　The Gucha Mulao Ethnic Township is the only Mulao ethnic township in China. It boasts a long-standing and profound traditional ethnic culture and a glorious revolutionary heritage. Attractions include the Haishan Ruins, the best-preserved ancient residences discovered in Liuzhou to date — the ancient houses of Tantouwei Village, the largest and most beautiful maple forest in South China, the Qian Village Stone Arch Bridge, the Xinwei Ecological Forest, Jiaren Mountain, and Liangsan Mountain, among other beautiful natural landscapes. The area also features rich Mulao ethnic festivals such as the Pond-Opening Festival, Clothing and Food Festival, and She Festival, as well as distinctive local cuisine. It is a centuries-old town filled with historical and ethnic charm.

　　 The scenic area is natural, simple, and mysterious, sparking endless imagination... Here, you can visit the ancient houses of Tantouwei Village, built during the Ming and Qing dynasties, sit on the blue stone slabs at the doorway and sing folk songs with Mulao sisters, get close to the clear stream in front of the village, and watch the herds of cattle returning home while cowherds tap their bamboo sticks “dada” in the afterglow of the setting sun. You can also admire the vast fields of rice and rapeseed flowers in front of the village. In autumn, take a stroll through the maple forest — it’s romantic and delightful.
