Guizhou

Guizhou is a land locked province in southwest of China. It neighbors Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality in the north; Hunan Province to its east; Guangxi and Yunnan to its south. Much of its 170,000km2 terrain sits on Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. 92% of its land surface are either mountains or hills. The hilly terrain naturally separated many tribes and this separation, over long time, caused the development of various ethnic groups as we see today in Guizhou. This province is home to 39 million people, 40% of its total population are ethnic minorities. 18 different ethnic groups live side by side for centuries. Much of Guizhou is in warm and wet subtropical climate with distinctive four seasons. Karst land form is well developed in Guizhou province covering 40% of its total areas. Many of Guizhou’s tourism attractions are related to Karst landscape, such as Huangguoshu waterfall, Longgong (dragon’s cave) and Xiaoqikong.
