Miwo Village, a village in China, located on the Thai-Myanmar border in Southeast Asia of Caicai.
Miwo village is located on the Thai-Myanmar border. Before entering the village, you have to go through a total length of 250 kilometers and bypass 1864 curved mountain road. This is a story of China village in Thailand.

Banrakthai is a mountain village in China on the Thai-Myanmar border. The road from Chiang Mai to Miwo Village 1095 is a long and tortuous road. Choosing go on road trip is a self-challenge and the best way to avoid carsickness. It takes at least 5 hours and 30 minutes to travel 250 kilometers, and you have to bypass the winding mountain road of 1864 to enter this China village hidden in the lush mountains.

There are many pie cafes in the middle, which is a slow-moving town favored by backpackers, suitable for reading, writing letters and staring blankly. I stayed with my partner for two days for the delicious food in Baixian Night Market. Although the scenery along the way is very beautiful, driving on the mountain road like a hairpin bend can also experience the thrill of racing on the mountain road in "Initial D", but we spent a long time concentrating and finally arrived at Miwo Village, which was relieved.

China culture in Miwo Village was already displayed through the arch before entering the village. Alpine tea is abundant here. As soon as you enter the village, there are tea gardens and wineries. Tulou homestay between tea gardens is the best place to watch the sunrise in the whole village. Red lanterns are hung high on both sides of the street, and the words inn, teahouse and so on are written. Most shops still write horizontal reviews and couplets at the door. On the right is the reservoir, and the mountain behind the village is reflected on the water. When there is no wind, the calm lake perfectly presents an upside-down world, which is fascinating. Walking has always been my favorite way to travel and the best way to explore this village.

There are about 200 families living in Miwo village. The villagers here used to belong to China Kuomintang. 1949, the Kuomintang was defeated by the army of the * * * Party led by Mao Zedong, and most of party member fled to Taiwan Province Province, while the 93rd Division of the Kuomintang retreated westward from Yunnan Province in southwest China to Myanmar. In 1960s and 1970s, this area was once a part of the notorious Golden Triangle. party member, the Kuomintang trapped here, naturally became an important role in the whole "special goods" transaction. Later, the Thai government wanted to contain other independent armed forces in the border areas through Kuomintang soldiers, and the two sides reached an agreement. The Thai government allowed them to stay on the northern border. In exchange, they helped fight the Thai armed forces. 1In the mid-1980s, when Thailand settled down, Kuomintang soldiers put down their guns and put on hoes to start farming.

In the suburbs of Thailand, the dilemma of language barrier is staged from time to time, but in Miwo Village, a sentence "Can you speak Chinese?" You can easily break the deadlock. This is a historical story of our harvest after we accidentally walked into a small shop made of loess and straw. The old gentleman in the shop pointed to the photos and old cultural relics on the wall and took pains to share them with us. The tone with a strong Yunnan accent is always kind.

Miwo Village, built around the lake with the reservoir as the center, will soon be completed in one week. One kilometer further north of the village is the control station on the Thai-Myanmar border. There are only two pavilions and a red and white bar in the control station. From time to time, people ride motorcycles or cross the border. It is not clear whether it is Thai or Burmese. The garrison soldiers refused our request to cross the border, but pointed us to an unplanned scenic spot, saying that we could overlook Myanmar as long as we climbed the commanding heights of the pass. The small hillside is full of sandbags and tunnels, and there is a semi-open kitchen built by Israeli green canvas, which is an unexpected surprise. Reaching the top of the slope, a dirt road leads directly to the Shan village in Myanmar. Ah, I'm standing in Thailand overlooking Myanmar! More subtly, the sound of children reading and playing in Myanmar passed through the valley and was carried to my ears by the wind, and the sound echoed. In such a comfortable atmosphere, it is really hard to imagine that there was an arms war here.

In the evening, I returned to the main street of Miwo Village, and a simple plaque of "Miwo School" was hung on a single-story bungalow without windows at the intersection. At this time, there are about 20 children who look at different ages learning Chinese. Seeing us looking around, the teacher came over to say hello. A Chinese conversation, teacher Lu's words box will open. Miwo School didn't officially start classes until 20 16. He and his wife are the only two teachers in Miwo School. Even if all the children in the village receive formal education in Thai schools run by the government, they insist on letting their children learn Chinese and never forget the tradition. In the past, they taught students to learn traditional Chinese characters. Later, the younger generation reflected that they could not read simplified Chinese characters as tour guides. Embarrassed, Teacher Lu realized that simplified Chinese characters were more common and changed the teaching of simplified Chinese characters.

The air in Miwo Village continued to cool down at night, and there were fewer children and tourists playing during the day, and everything was quiet again. After the manager and Mr. Lu, we also met several old people who have gone through many years and are full of historical stories. When we see our ancestors who originated in China, our eyes inadvertently shine with joy. It can be seen that even with the gradual assimilation of living customs, the older generation in Miwo Village still remembers history and ancestors and has deep-rooted feelings for their distant hometown.

We learn from local tourists in Thailand and camp by the lake in this quaint natural village. In the winter of June 5438+February in northern Thailand, you can still feel the cold air outside the canvas through a double-decker tent and a quilt. Looking at the thermometer the next morning, it was as low as 8 degrees Celsius. I said that this place, whether it is culture, architecture, climate or food, has subverted the traditional impression of ordinary people on Thailand.

On the morning of departure, the sun was slightly warm, and the steam floating on the lake enveloped the village in a hazy beauty. This once difficult place is a little shy now.

Despite the blessing of tourism, the village is still unpretentious, but compared with the brutality of the veterans when they first arrived, this group of lonely veterans and their descendants who stayed in northern Thailand can finally settle down in this place that can be called home. Before I left, I looked back again. The villagers who got up early had begun to work hard for their lives and remained indifferent.

When the years were quiet and calm, I stepped into the car and prepared to set foot on the road again.
