Nestled in Danba County, Sichuan Province, Jikayi Village has been named one of the 2025 Best Tourism Villages by UN Tourism. The village was celebrated for its authentic cultural heritage, sound ecological protection, and innovative path to sustainable development. It stood out among many global candidates to become the second village in Sichuan to receive this honor.

Home to well-preserved traditions such as the "Coming-of-Age Ceremony for Women," Han Dynasty stone coffin tombs, and Tibetan tower-building craftsmanship, Jikayi blends cultural preservation with modern vitality. Through community participation and creative tourism models like "homestay + culture + tourism," the village offers visitors a vivid experience of living heritage and rural revitalization.
