Features: The Xichuhe in Longshan, Hunan is the homeland of the Tujia people. It is a living folk and ecological museum, home to mysterious shamans, the living fossil of the Maogusi drama, the ancient Beishou dance, the flower of weaving art - Xianlankapu, exquisite and rustic furniture, and simple and primitive customs. The ancient town by the river has clean and shiny cobblestone streets, with each (jiǎojiǎo lóu - is a type of traditional building) reflecting in the clear river water. It was once prosperous but now lies in silence.
