Xizhou

Introduction


Xizhou, aside from Dali, is another great place to observe typical Bai folk culture and architecture. A typical Bai courtyard home consists of rooms on three sides and a decorative screen wall on the south side. These homes have carved beams, turned up eaves, and look splendid in their green, gold, blue and white paint.

Numerous intriguing Bai festivals are held in Xizhou, almost one major festival each month. The one most worth mentioning is the "Three Spirits Festival" in April, when local young men and women gather together to choose their lovers and future spouses. During the festival, local people perform all manner of Bai folk dances wearing their very best clothing.

Xizhou is also home to embroidery and wax dying which can be used to make and decorate shoes, hats, clothing, tablecloths, tapestries and bed sheets.

Not far from Xizhou, Zhoucheng is yet another good place to see well-preserved Bai houses and architecture. The local Erhai fish is fantastic and a regular bazaar is held here regularly.
