Dehang is referred to as a "beautiful canyon" in Miao language, and Dehang Miao Village is known in the tourism industry as the "hometown of great virtue and Miao drum". Dehang Miao Village in Jishou City, Xiangxi is the most well preserved Miao village in China, with the strongest Miao customs. It is an ethnic tourism scenic spot that integrates the original Miao culture and the natural scenery of Miao villages.

The Miao people, who have lived in the towering mountains for generations, use songs as a medium to express themselves freely, waiting for life and death. They sing and dance with great intensity, living in their unique way of survival. Therefore, Dehang Miao Village has formed an ancient, beautiful, and mysterious world

When it comes to Dehang, most people think of three words: "Miao Village, Tianwen Terrace, and Liusha Waterfall". However, today, we only talk about "Jiulong Creek". Most people who go to Dehang go back after visiting the Miao village, at most they go to Tianwen Tai or Liusha Waterfall. It is estimated that less than 10% of people will discover the 'Jiulong Waterfall', but less than 1% will trace back to the source of Jiulong Waterfall. This is the source of Jiulong Creek, the First Class Silk Waterfall

On the way to Liusha Waterfall, there is a family, and the "Jiulong Creek Waterfall Group" is located in the mountains and forests behind this family. The beautiful scenery is in the deep mountains, where the forests hide their beauty. When approaching Jiulong Waterfall, the four big characters "Jiulong Waterfall" are at your feet. The waterfall is beautiful and enchanting. The zigzag shaped stone road by the stream, walked step by step without careful consideration, easily slipped and fell, as if it hadn't been a long time since I walked so cautiously.

Along the way, accompanied by streams and strange shapes of rocks, each with its own unique features. One stone, one pond, one water, step by step is the scenery, pitch high and low, everywhere creates scenery. Every ten meters, there are waterfalls and small pools, each with its own unique features. I heard birds chirping all the way, but I couldn't see their tracks. Be cautious and reach a broken bridge where only a withered tree is used as a bridge. It takes a lot of effort to step over here.

Turtle Essence Pool, Jade Maiden Pool and other pools have clear and green water, just like what was written in the "Little Stone Pool". The water I see is incredibly clear, making me obsessed and linger. Wash your face by the water, be careful. The water in the pond is clear and secluded, and it is truly bottomless. I dare not be careless.

Climbing up, there are waterfalls dancing like silver and silk, like flowing gauze, cascading down, very moving. When passing through the waterfall underwater, the water is like a silk curtain, misty with rain, and the water vapor spreads and flies, like a hidden fairyland in the mountains.

When sunny days come, a rainbow accompanies the waterfall. The stream falls down like rain or mist, with a hint of refreshing water that seeps into the heart and spleen. In the season of abundant water, rolling water falls from the cliffs, like the rolling waves of nine dragons, shaking the valley with a majestic and spectacular momentum; During the dry season, the flowing water floats down the mountains, like a light veil brushing my face, like a pearl curtain hanging, graceful and charming, full of tenderness.

There were originally wooden ladders next to the waterfall, but now there are iron ladders available for climbing up (extremely dangerous, afraid of heights, not physically strong and cautious). Steel nails are chiseled into the stone walls, and you grab the nails and climb up. Occasionally, water droplets hit your face, making climbing even more cautious. This should be the end of this journey, but there is still a slow road ahead.

There is also a dangerous scenery in Dehang Miao Village called Pangu Peak, which is six to seven hundred meters high and surrounded by cliffs. Standing at the top of the peak, one can see the surrounding scenery in full view. Looking up at the foot of the mountain, Pangu Peak is full of ups and downs, with towering cliffs. However, with no physical strength left, I dare not climb it rashly. Returning to the Miao village, on the small path in the village, the tense emotions gradually relaxed.

Dehang Miao Village is truly a paradise in western Hunan
