There's a lot of people said that Xijiang is ruining by over-commercialization. How do u feel? And some of my friends suggest me to go to Zhaoxing old town in Guizhou, have u been there?

The people who lived here must have lived a long life

[@tsuvtom7668]

I don't understand why people use words like "minority ethnic" or "minority group" or "locals" to describe natives. Factually, Miao and most other ethnic people are natives of China. I don't mean to get all sensitive, but in the US, we don't call the Chumashs and Cherokees "minority ethnic." We call them native Americans.

[@胡紫鹏]

I think the reason is that Native American spend thousands of years longer than later immigrants, so they are quite “native”. While for China, different groups all have long history living on the Chinese territory thus no group is more native than another. Moreover, according to ancients tales, Miao Chinese initially lived in Central China. They fled to southern China because of the war of zhuolu （涿鹿之战). So they are not that native here. Miao Chinese have a lot of tales and heart-touching songs about their history of being refugees.

We should call the Hmong Native Chinese!

[@tsuvtom7668]

@@胡紫鹏 Ok, so are Han Chinese considered ethnic minorities in XinJiang? Are Japanese, Europeans, Americans, Russians and Koreans living in China considered ethnic minorities in China as well? I think not. I think the word "minority" needs more clarification. Sounds to me, it is only used to describe the impoverished.

[@Onionoil467]

There isn't one really. There's three main groups of languages the Xiangxi, Qiandong, and Chuanqiandian. The ones in this video speak one of the languages in the Qiandong cluster.

Those guys that you are with eating at the table , They are Chinese gangsters . They may look like normal people but they are gangsters .

[@harveythompson1756]

..sadly its now Miao Disneyland, every thing is laid on for the tourist, evena corny Han pop group.... and a carbon copy of the original charm of the place--all instigated by the Han Chinese government....another cultural tragedy.

[@MrTeoh6100]

Is lijiang not xinjiang

[@youngge8705]

Xijiang in Guizhou province. Lijiang is in Yunnan.

[@niamtxiv]

It's Xijiang, not Lijiang or Xinjiang. This is in Guizhou.

[@YoungP475]

They are not HMOOB, they han chinese

[@suxx0009]

Isn't "Miao" means Hmong in English? Would it be strange to introduce yourself as "May country" people?

[@D2E80]

That’s what I thought as well. Not sure why some people feel the work Miao is a slur.

[@YoungP475]

They are not HMOOB, they are han chinese
