Donglan County, belonging to Hechi City of Guangxi, is located in the hinterland of northwest Guangxi, with the Hongshui River running through it, and is famous as the "hometown of generals" and the old revolutionary area. The peasant movement led by Wei Baiqun has been flourishing here, and Deng Xiaoping, Zhang Yunyi and other revolutionaries of the old generation have fought here, so the red culture is profound. The karst landforms in the area are very beautiful, known as "Natural Oxygen Bar", and the stalactites in the caves such as Xian/Dong/Yan/Ram are of various shapes and sizes, and the scenery along the Hongshui River is exquisite. The Zhuang culture is rich, with the art of copper drums and the custom of singing pike inherited for thousands of years, and specialties such as Donglan ink rice wine and chestnut aroma are unique. Nowadays, Donglan relies on red resources and ecological advantages to develop red tourism and eco-agriculture, which is a charming place to feel the humanities and nature of northwest Gui.
