Dajun Village (Window of She Ethnic Region)
大均·中国畲乡之窗
A 4A-rated scenic area: a centuries-old village beside a stream, where a Tang-era camphor tree, ancient covered bridges and She ethnic song and dance performances coexist, and you can also ride a bamboo raft.
Dajun Village lies in Dajun Township of Jingning She Autonomous County, built beside a stream that is a tributary of the Ou River. In 2009, it was rated a national 4A scenic area under the name 'Window of She Ethnic Region, China.'
The ancient village retains its old streets, ancestral halls and a thousand-year-old Tang camphor tree. Covered bridges, such as the Dachikeng Bridge at the village entrance, span the stream.
Every day, the scenic area hosts She folk performances, including traditional weddings and ribbon weaving. In summer, you can ride a bamboo raft down the stream, dubbed 'the No. 1 raft ride in Jiangnan.'
Admission, performance schedules and rafting times follow the scenic area's announcements. The village is about 10 kilometres from the county seat, roughly a 15-minute drive by taxi or car.
