Afternoon: Qianxinan Museum Upon arrival in Xingyi, begin with an orientation at the regional museum. The focus here is on the ancient Bronze Drum artifacts and the historical timeline of local ethnic minorities, providing necessary context for the architecture and communities you will encounter later in the week.

Evening: Fenglin Bouyei Village Transfer to a traditional water village built in the Bouyei ethnic style. The evening allows for a relaxed walk to observe the layout of the stilt houses and stone architecture, followed by a local welcome dinner.
