Danzhai Wanda Village is a tourism town in China. It was built as part of Wanda Group's poverty alleviation program in Danzhai County, Guizhou Province.
Danzhai is located in the province of Guizhou in Southwestern China. With a population of approximately 172,000, it is one of China's most ethnically diverse regions. Danzhai sits administratively under the Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture. The region is known for its geographic, cultural and ethnic diversity, including the rice terraces, and Miao ethnic crafts and traditions. [1]
Most people in the village used to migrate to bigger cities for jobs, due to the village not having good enough terrain. For this reason, the village was completely unpopulated and remote. In 2014, the Wanda Group designated it as the site for its ‘Enterprise Sponsored County-wide Comprehensive Poverty Alleviation’ program. [2] The Wanda Group has committed to invest 300 million yuan to a Danzhai vocational school, 500 million yuan for a Danzhai poverty alleviation fund, and 700 million yuan for a Danzhai Wanda Village, which includes a hotel and a town district built in the Miao architectural tradition.

In July 2017, the village celebrated its grand opening. Wanda is planning to build more tourism villages for poverty alleviation. [4]
The village has had a series of "rotating mayors" who help to promote it. One was Matt William Knowles.
The village features in the short story "Monster" by Naomi Kritzer, a finalist for a 2021 Hugo Award.

However, New Xiang is still very difficult for Mandarin speakers to understand, particularly the old style of New Xiang.
The Miao rebellion of 1854–1873, also known as the Qian rebellion was an uprising of ethnic Miao and other groups in Guizhou province during the reign of the Qing dynasty. Despite its name, Robert Jenks estimates that ethnic Miao made up less than half of the uprising's participants. The uprising was preceded by Miao rebellions in 1735–36 and 1795–1806, and was one of many ethnic uprisings sweeping China in the 19th century. The rebellion spanned the Xianfeng and Tongzhi periods of the Qing dynasty, and was eventually suppressed with military force. Estimates place the number of casualties as high as 4.9 million out of a total population of 7 million, though these figures are likely overstated.
