在贵州大大小小的侗寨中，肇兴侗寨被称为侗乡第一寨，因为建筑群规模较大而且保存完整，可以了解到侗族的文化习俗和生活的方方面面。在这里还能品尝到侗家特色美食，侗族烤鱼，糯米饭包烤肉，油茶，还有肇兴特色的红酸米粉，都是比较原生态的美味。
Among the large and small Dong villages in Guizhou, Zhaoxing Dong village is known as the first village in Dong Township. Because of the large scale and complete preservation of the buildings, you can learn about the cultural customs and life of the Dong people. Here, you can also taste the special delicacies of the Dong family, such as grilled fish of the Dong ethnic group, barbecued meat wrapped in glutinous rice, Youcha, and Zhaoxing's characteristic red and sour rice noodle, all of which are relatively original and delicious.
