What do you know about Guizhou through the video?
The Miao ethnic group is well-known for their music and dance, which has a long history, and the most famous dance is the lusheng dance.
Lusheng dance (also called "踩芦笙") is a traditional folk dance of ethnic minorities in southwest China, most prominently the Miao people. It has a history of over 2,000 years and was listed as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage of China in 2006.
The Miao ethnic group has a population of more than 9 million, most of whom live in the provinces of southwest China. Decorated with embroideries (刺绣) and silver accessories made by themselves, their clothes are very colorful and unique in various patterns.

Justin: Hey, Wu Yue, do you know what kind of instrument these Miao performers are playing?
Yes, it’s called a lusheng, my favourite musical instrument.
It sounds beautiful. Is it made of bamboo?
Yes. Can you guess when it was invented?
Um... five hundred years ago? I can’t tell I know China has a very long history.
That’s a good guess, but the lusheng actually has a history of over 3,000 years. It's even mentioned in the oldest collection of Chinese poetry.
Wow, such a long time ago. There must be many beautiful songs.

I’m taking you to Zhaoxing, a pretty Dong minority village. It’s considered one of China’s

Great. I can’t wait. There must be a lot to see.
There is. First, I’ll take you to see the beautiful drum towers, and then the wind and rain bridges. The Dong play the lusheng, too. Perhaps you’ll see them perform the Grand Song of the Dong People. Believe me, you’ll love it.
Wow, I’m really looking forward to it now.
