Guilin Tourism Fashion Life - Precious Specialty Lingxiang Grass

The tourism of folklore of ethnic minorities has become a major feature of Guilin's folk tourism, allowing you to experience the colorful folk customs of Guilin while enjoying the most beautiful scenery in the world.

Stepping into the Dayao Mountain, the Yao compatriots will tell you that there are three treasures in Yaoshan: winter mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, and灵xiang grass.

Winter mushrooms and dried bamboo shoots are already familiar to people as local specialties, but fewer people know about灵xiang grass, which is probably closely related to its "preciousness".

灵xiang grass, also known as fragrant grass, yellow fragrant grass, and lavender, belongs to the Primulaceae family of perennial herbaceous plants. Every May or June, Yao girls go up the mountain and choose a damp shady slope as the place to plant灵xiang grass. The soil for planting灵xiang grass should be loose, moist, and relatively fertile. They cut down shrubs, remove weeds, cultivate a piece of land, and then insert the灵xiang grass stems. Afterwards, under their careful care,灵xiang grass sprouts, blooms, and grows into a lush green carpet.
