as an international co-production documentary, under the guidance of the publicity department of the cpc guizhou provincial committee, the project formed a creative team from five countries. it took several months to carry out preliminary site investigation, safety survey, route planning, on-site shooting and other work around guizhou. national geographic explorers and local explorers in guizhou went to various destinations in guizhou that are the best in the world, and experienced the libo xiaoqikong, known as the "emerald on earth", the "wildest" libo maolan karst cave, the "no. 1 waterfall in china", the anshun huangguoshu waterfall, the anshun baling river bridge with a height of 370 meters certified by the guinness world records as the world's highest commercial bungee jumping, and the anshun tianlong tunbao, the "living fossil of ming dynasty history"... all kinds of tourist destinations worth visiting in guizhou were gathered at one time, aiming to let global audiences understand the beautiful mountains and rivers, pleasant climate, and diverse ethnic cultures of guizhou's "mountain kingdom", and lead the audience on the "heart-yearning" cultural and tourism journey prepared by guizhou for global audiences.
"i really want to take a nap in between shoots, but in guizhou, if you blink, you will miss too many wonderful views." this is the self-description of national geographic explorer and photographer ben horton after completing the above guizhou trip experience.

guizhou has a long history of connection with national geographic. guizhou has won the "best of the world" award twice. during the selection, the national geographic recommendation read: "guizhou was once one of the most remote and unknown provinces in chinese history, but now it is attracting global attention as a center for cloud computing and big data. the abundant water resources and cool climate in the mountainous area have attracted apple, huawei and other technology companies. guizhou province also has traditional villages of ethnic minorities including the buyi, dong and miao. especially in eastern guizhou, the pace of life is very slow, and people continue the farming and textile traditions that began in the sixth century, such as spinning, embroidery and batik." it is not difficult to see from the recommendation that guizhou's unique mountain natural resources and mysterious ethnic minority culture have become more and more attractive to the world, and are also two major advantages for attracting foreign tourists.

building a world-class tourist destination is a strategic choice and inevitable requirement for guizhou to fully implement the spirit of general secretary xi jinping's important speech during his inspection of guizhou and his important instructions and instructions on guizhou's work, implement the decisions and arrangements of the party central committee and the state council, promote new breakthroughs in the industrialization of tourism, and accelerate the construction of a colorful guizhou tourism power province. in this international communication, the chinese and foreign co-production creative teams worked together to spread guizhou from an international perspective and explore guizhou in person. through the magazines, channels, social media and other platforms of national geographic with global influence, they expressed in a creative language that international audiences love to hear and see, presenting the connection between guizhou and the world, and between china and the world in the span of time and space, and showing the ecological concept and tourism development wisdom contained in colorful guizhou.
