Southern villages fuel tourism through folk customs

Shuangletun has relied on its multiple ethnicities to develop into a popular getaway.

Sitting in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region's Huanjiang Maonan autonomous county, the village is home to ethnic Maonan, Miao and Yao people, which makes for an ideal environment to experience distinctive Chinese folk customs.

"The number of tourists usually peaks on weekends, and villagers will perform traditional guest-welcoming shows," says Wei Yulong, the village head.
