    Rongjiang County (榕江县) is located in Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture (黔东南苗族侗族自治州) in Guizhou, southwestern China. It lies between two major regional capitals: approximately 250 km from Guilin and about 229 km from Guiyang, making it a central gateway between Guizhou and Guangxi.

    Positioned in the heart of Qiandongnan, Rongjiang is home to over 30 ethnic groups, including Miao, Dong, Shui, Yao, and Zhuang communities. This rich ethnic diversity makes it one of the most culturally significant regions in China for minority traditions.

    Often called the “Ancestral Source of Dong and Miao Culture”, Rongjiang preserves some of the most important cultural landmarks of these ethnic groups, including unique temples, drum towers, and traditional folk music heritage.


    Cultural Significance

    Rongjiang holds a special place in Chinese ethnic history:

    • It is regarded as the origin of Dong and Miao cultural traditions
    • Home to the only Temple of the Miao King (苗王庙) in the world
    • Features the tallest Dong drum tower, symbolizing community and heritage
    • Known as a birthplace of Grand Dong Songs (侗族大歌), a UNESCO-recognized intangible cultural heritage

    The region also includes villages of other minority groups such as Shui (水族), Yao (瑶族), and Zhuang (壮族), making it a living museum of ethnic diversity.
