The Last Primitive Tribe in China-Yunnan Wengding Ancient Village! What do you know about this place?

It is reported that Wengding Laozhai is located on the banks of the Lancang River, and it is surrounded by clouds all year round. Weng Ding, in the Wa language, there is also the meaning of clouds and lakes in the mountains. Wengding Laozhai is the most intact Wa village in China, and it is also the last life of Chinese tribal culture. It retains the architectural style and primitive customs of the original Wa folk houses. Zhaimen, Zhaizhang, Dage, Wooden Drum House and Niutou Pile all exude a strong primitive tribal atmosphere and retain a unique way of getting close to nature.

Like Weng Ding's old house, in Kyushu, China, there are some like this? Primitive tribes, some even less than a thousand people, have unique languages, costumes and lifestyles. After several migrations, they passed on the cultural customs of their ancestors from generation to generation in a relatively fixed area. In recent years, Weng Ding Cun has been listed in two national intangible cultural heritage protection lists, namely, Wa Wood Drum Dance and Legend of Sigangli, and won the provincial protection lists of Weng Ding Cun Wa Traditional Cultural Protection Zone and Wa Woodcarving Craft, which was praised by chinese national geography magazine. The last primitive tribe? As one of the top ten beautiful countryside in Lincang. On March 3, 2020, Kloc-0, Wengding Primitive Tribal Cultural Tourism Zone was rated as a national 4A-level tourist attraction by the Yunnan Provincial Tourist Attractions Quality Rating Committee, and it was also called an ancient village with a famous historical and cultural village in Yunnan Province and one of the top ten beautiful countryside in Lincang. These honors are recognition of this feeling of Weng Ding Lao Zhai, and this unique lifestyle is the best form of peaceful coexistence between man and nature.

Recently, The Paper learned from the press office of the People's Government of Cangyuan Wa Autonomous County that a serious fire broke out in Weng Ding Cun Laozhai, Meng Jiao Ethnic Township, Cangyuan Wa Autonomous County, with no casualties.
