Chengbu Miao Autonomous County
Home to Nanshan National Park, combining highland grasslands with Miao culture, a summer pasture in southwestern Hunan.
Chengbu Miao Autonomous County lies in southwestern Hunan, in the south of Shaoyang, bordering Guangxi, with the Miao as one of its main ethnic groups. Nanshan Pasture sits high and open, with rolling grassland dotted with wind turbines; cool in summer, it is a fine place to escape the heat and enjoy the views. Baiyun Lake, Chang'anying and other places combine lake and mountain scenery with ethnic minority villages. Summer and autumn are the best times to visit, and snow may settle on the mountains in winter. You can travel by road from Shaoyang or from Guilin in Guangxi.
