Bird cages in Kara village, Danzhai

In the park, the most common ones are grandfathers who play Tai Chi in the morning and grandfathers who get up early to walk the birds. But do you know who else might have bought your grandfather's birdcage besides the supermarket? What I want to introduce today is that in Guizhou, there is a village with 1 19 households, and 89 households are making birdcages-Kala Village.

The birdcage compiled by the masses in Kara village is mainly made of bamboo, golden bamboo and thunder bamboo, which is durable and does not deform. Bird cages are not only sold well in and out of the province, but also exported to Hongkong, Taiwan Province, Singapore, Japan, Europe and America. There are many kinds, specifications and shapes of birdcages. In addition to ordinary birdcages, there are birdcages that integrate weaving, carving, batik, embroidery and calligraphy. Known as "the hometown of birdcage culture and art" in China.

Kara Village established the "Danzhai County National Craft Bird Cage Factory" in the form of "company+farmer" by using the unique traditional folk crafts.

Kalamiao Village, with its neat village, good living environment and colorful national culture, has left a deep impression on people. At the entrance of the village, girls dressed in Miao costumes smiled and invited people to drink rice wine, and men, women and children spontaneously danced cheerful Miao Lusheng dance. In the stockade, the Miao Diaojiao Building is hidden among the trees, full of poetry and painting. The lobby and yard on the first floor are full of birdcages, showing that everyone is an artist with a birdcage at home.
