People with a slight fear of heights went to Weiga. 🌚 I had no idea it was a mountain road before I went up. Well, there's a road built in a completely vertical place, which should have been terrifying (although people with a fear of heights should avoid these places). There's also a bridge between two high mountains, which was really scary. I walked part of it and then returned the same way. I didn't dare to open my eyes to see the last part of the cable car that goes directly to the top of the mountain. It was the cool breeze that made the car shake, and then I got scared. All in all, Route A is not very strenuous. If you don't complete the West Route, I recommend it to those who like mountains. There is also a glass plank road.
I see that most people choose line A and line B, and rarely line C, but I think line C is also very good, not very congested. However, line C is a short cable car. We also saw Zhang Shupeng's wing suit flying practice. The overall feeling was very good and very satisfactory. The scenery was super beautiful.

Fanjing Mountain is a real-life fairyland! Ride the cable car up through the clouds, and the golden summit looks like a stone peak split by a giant axe. The suspended sky bridge is breathtaking. The mushroom-shaped rocks have stood for eons, weathering wind and rain with unwavering stability. Clouds drift in from the mountains, and the golden temple roofs loom, reminiscent of the abode of the gods. On the way down, I encountered little squirrels, completely unafraid of people. The climb was worth it; this scenery is etched into my DNA!
Apart from the traffic jams and long queues, the other services at Fanjing Mountain are excellent and the tourism is more mature. It is really cold on the top of the mountain, so you must be well prepared beforehand and wear long sleeves and windproof clothes.

This B&B truly exceeded my expectations! Not only does it boast a unique design style, with surprises lurking in every corner, but the host's attention to detail is truly remarkable 🐷. From the free coffee to the thoughtful amenities, every detail truly reflects the host's thoughtfulness ❤️. Furthermore, the host's warm hospitality and professional advice made our trip even more enriching 🌟. Whether it's a family getaway or a gathering with friends, this is a perfect choice. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in the city! 💖
Xiaoqikong is so fun. It's tiring, but it's worth it. Enter from the west gate and exit from the east gate. The downhill road is very easy to walk. The most fun part is Cuigu Waterfall and Water Forest. The children had a lot of fun. Recommended.

Overall, it's certainly commercialized, but if it were still an ancient village, would anyone want to visit? Would anyone dare stay there? Entering the scenic area is a bit cumbersome, with multiple security checks, and the entrance fee is a bit expensive. However, there are plenty of shuttle buses from the parking lot to the entrance, and from the North Gate to the North Small Gate, which are quite convenient. We stayed in a guesthouse within the scenic area—our first time staying in a guesthouse—and it was quite clean. The owner even picked up our luggage. The overall feeling was like a combination of Hongyadong and Shanghai's City God Temple. If you haven't encountered ethnic minorities, it's worth a visit to experience it and discover more of the scenic area.

Visiting Elephant Mountain during a downpour is a unique experience. It's not without its crowds, but it's definitely better than on a sunny day. Free reservations are available. Enter through Gate 3, scan the QR code, and follow the trails to Love Island, then Elephant Mountain. We took a bamboo raft for 50 yuan per person, circling the mountain twice, and took photos with the ospreys (10 yuan for both). Finally, we exited through Gate 1 and strolled back to the hotel. Prices in tourist cities are quite impressive, I love it!
We first arrived in Guilin from Yangshuo. Xingping Town in Yangshuo (the 20 RMB place) was filthy and messy. The Elephant Trunk Hill scenic area was small, and prices were incredibly high. A bottle of mineral water cost 6 RMB...
There's a bus stop right outside Gate 2, which was quite convenient.

Guilin's Two Rivers and Four Lakes cruise is perfect for taking kids!
The evening boat ride is breathtaking, and the scenery under the setting sun is picturesque. The lights shine even brighter after dark. The Sun and Moon Pagodas are particularly stunning, and the kids couldn't blink.
The boat is very stable, and the guides tell interesting stories for the kids. The whole ride is relaxing and comfortable. The adults enjoy the scenery, and the kids have fun. It's a great value!
The intangible cultural heritage boat we took not only introduced the scenery of the two rivers and four waters, but also had the beautiful Liu Sanjie teach us to sing folk songs, and there was also an interactive singing session. Adults and children were very happy

The scenery is pretty good. There weren't many people when we went, and there was almost no queue for the elevator. I feel that when it's crowded, the queue would be very long. In general, the scenery of the Ground Crack is better than that of the Three Natural Bridges. It's just that we went to the Ground Crack later and were quite tired at the time, so we didn't have time to appreciate it carefully.
The place is worth visiting if you have more than 4 days in chongqing. It's beautiful hike and scenery. I just have comment about the company that handled the ticket. There was a misunderstanding with them since not all passengers with me on the trip had the same ticket and driver told us all we have to meet at a certain exit that i didn't have access to with my ticket. But it was resolved. I hope they communicate better with their drivers in terms of what each person's ticket info also a little consideration to non Chinese tourists would be great.

It was a fascinating trip. Wangcheng is a campus of Guangxi Normal University. The guide was a teacher from the university. He was incredibly knowledgeable and could readily recite historical allusions and ancient poetry. I was impressed! He gave us a vivid history and culture lesson!
The most impressive things were the Wangfu secret carvings, the Five Blessings, and the Tai Sui culture!
The Prince Jing's Mansion is beautiful, a tranquil retreat amidst the bustle of the city. The prince clearly knew how to choose a prime feng shui location. Formerly the site of Guangxi Normal University, it boasts both history and stunning scenery. The tour guide service was exceptional, offering free, professional explanations. Guide Mo, who is said to be a teacher, was very professional, patient, and thorough, even trying to explain as much as he could, knowing we were pressed for time. When we left to receive our blessing rubbings, Guide Wei patiently led us to the north gate. I'll definitely be back for a second visit during winter break.

It was the first time I saw such a large cave. It was very spectacular. The cave is 3.4 kilometers long with many steps. You can climb up and walk down. There are stalagmites, stone pillars, stone shields, stone curtains and other shapes that make people linger. Everyone walked through the entire cave in the form of a walk. It was very hot if you walked too much. If you walked slowly, it would be very cold at 14 degrees in the cave. It was a mixture of hot and cold. It is a scenic spot worth visiting.
Zhijin Cave is worthy of its 5A rating and is truly worth a visit. The cave is filled with bizarre peaks and jagged rocks. The entire walk takes less than an hour and a half, making it easily accessible to both the elderly and children. The Grand Canyon itself was average; the 60 yuan ticket only covers the sightseeing bus and elevator, and the boat ticket must be purchased separately. After visiting the area, I found that ticket prices for scenic spots in Guizhou are quite high, especially the sightseeing bus tickets. Furthermore, a single scenic area is often divided into two or three sections, requiring sightseeing buses and separate tickets to travel between them, making it quite complicated. Overall, the average price per person for the entire trip was around 200-300 yuan.

The Longji Rice Terraces were truly breathtaking. We visited both Ping'an and Jinkeng villages. The Ping'an rice terraces are winding and winding, while the Jinkeng rice terraces are majestic and magnificent. The journey was a bit long, though. From the Ping'an parking lot, we took a shuttle bus to Jiulong Wuhu, then walked to Qixing Banyue, and then back to the parking lot. The journey was quite long, but the scenery was breathtaking. We took the Jinkeng cable car and got off, but didn't go to the Thousand-Layered Ladder (we ran out of time). The view from the Golden Buddha Summit gave us a sense of commanding the entire mountain range.
The Longji Rice Terraces are a magnificent epic! Across the mountain ridges, a thousand-layered green belt winds and swirls like a giant dragon leaping, a scene of extraordinary grandeur. In spring, water reflects the sky, summer brings swaying wheat fields, autumn paints golden waves to the clouds, and winter hides in a blanket of silver, the four seasons transforming into a picturesque scene. The terraces, stacked like stairways ascending to heaven, embody the wisdom of the Zhuang ancestors and the ingenuity of coexisting with nature, a timeless masterpiece of humanity's interplay with the mountains and rivers. Walking among them feels like strolling through a gallery of heaven and earth, a breathtaking experience!
