Now, under the impact of the strong cultural impact of the modernization process and the influence of the contemporary global economic integration trend, especially the surge of migrant workers, many Miao people working outside wear Han clothes, speak Han language, and learn Han customs to adapt to the life in big cities. Their ethnic characteristics are gradually disappearing, and there is no successor to the traditional ethnic culture. In addition, the Miao people in the Dongfeng Lake flooded area immigrated to Gaojin Village, Linquan Town, and many customs have undergone fundamental changes. The ecological environment of Huawu culture has undergone great changes. (No pictures yet, welcome to provide.) (No pictures yet, welcome to provide.)
