Today you will be driven to Gongcheng, a county belongs to Guilin city, to visit the ancient villages there.

Firstly you will visit the “Red Slogan No.1 Village” –Dongzhai Village in Lianhua Town. Dongzhai Village is a Yao village with a hundred-year history. The houses in the whole village are all made of mud bricks and blue tiles, and the planning is orderly. In the village, slogans dot almost every corner of the houses. The content of the slogans mainly consists of slogans and quotations from Chairman MAO. Despite more than half a century, the slogans in Dongzhai Village are still clear.

Then you will visit the Mendeng Village in the town. The village retains a large number of "Jiujia" dwellings built in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China with strong Lingnan style: herringbone roof, fan-shaped eaves, round window top, white lines on red walls.
