The SHUI MIAO are a sub group of the Miaos of GUIZHOU, based in Shidong area outside of Kali in Guizhou.
In Dali, Yunnan we met a group of middle aged SHUI MIAO ladies who come from Guizhou to sell their traditional clothes to tourists in the streets of Dali old town, we recorded them in the mountain and indoor at our home, here you can listen to mountain song intended to be very loud and more intimate tunes .
