What to see?
Baimian Yao Village covers a total area of about 35,000 square meters, and the building area is approximately 3,000 square meters. In front of the village gate stands a tablet which is inscribed with the village rules. Outside the gate there is a pillar, the totem of the Red Yao people.

Below the village, a huge rock resembling the dragon's tongue protrudes from the mountainside. Hence its name: the Dragon Tongue Rock. The rock has other names, such as the Red Army Rock or Kuangming Rock to commemorate the victory of the Long March.
Baimian Yao Village has a special custom in that the local men often marry into and live in their bride's family. This tradition has passed down from generation to generation. Another attractive feature of that place is that the young people sing folk songs to attract their sweethearts.
