Introduction Hot air ballooning in Guilin

Introduction
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Guilin is famous for its unique karst landforms and beautiful landscapes. Riding a hot air balloon is one of the best ways to appreciate the beauty of Guilin.

Karst Landscape: Taking a hot air balloon ride, the Li River winds across the earth like a green silk ribbon, and the clear river water reflects the green mountains on both sides. The poetic picture of "the river is like a green silk belt, and the mountains are like jade hairpins" is vividly presented before your eyes. Verdant fields and quaint villages are intertwined, curling smoke rises, clouds and mists linger in the distance, and mountains appear and disappear, forming a slowly unfolding ink painting. This kind of landscape wonder can bring a strong visual shock at every glance.

Pleasant climate helps flight: Guilin has a subtropical monsoon climate with four distinct seasons and mild weather. Most of the year, there is plenty of sunshine, evenly distributed rainfall, and mostly clear weather, which provides ideal lighting conditions for hot air balloon flights. In terms of wind power, Guilin's wind is gentle and pleasant, especially in the early morning and evening. The gentle breeze can not only push the hot air balloon to fly smoothly but also will not cause violent shaking, allowing passengers to leisurely enjoy the beautiful scenery below in a comfortable environment.

Professional service guarantee experience: Although Guilin's hot air balloon service started relatively late, it has developed rapidly. Operators actively introduce advanced equipment and strictly carry out maintenance and inspection in accordance with safety standards to ensure excellent equipment performance. All staff members have received professional training. They are not only familiar with the hot air balloon operation procedures, but also know the local climate and terrain very well. They can plan the best flight route based on actual conditions, do their best to ensure flight safety, and bring a high-quality experience to passengers.

Taking a hot air balloon in Guilin is a journey that perfectly combines natural beauty with a safe and comfortable experience, leaving you with an unforgettable and beautiful memory.

Picturesque Mount Laozhai in Xingping ❤️⛰️

Picturesque Mount Laozhai in Xingping ❤️⛰️

Amazing views ❤️❤️ from the peak of Mount Laozhai in Xingping, Guangxi province. 🚶🏃‍♂️Getting There - we stayed in a guesthouse on one of the the old street in the central part of Xingping. From here you can get to the foot of the mountain walking. The entrance to the pathway up the mountain is near This Old Place International Youth Hostel right by the pier of the Li River. ⛰️🏞️Attractions - the hike up the mountain took about 40 mins. It was quite steep but short enough so not too strenuous. The pathways are a little slippery so make sure you have adequate footwear, particularly when descending. There is no entrance fee. We attempted to do a sunrise hike but it was too misty at the top on the day we went. It did clear later so we managed to get some good photos. 🏅Overall it was definitely worth a visit if you are in Xingping. #naturalwonders#hiking

Cuiping Hills (Yangshuo)

Getting There - We took a driver from West Street to the Cuiping Mountains. 30minutes drive. Attractions - The stunning hills at sunset are something incredible. Best time to go in the summer is at 5:30pm. Hotels - Stayed in West Street. Food & Restaurants - Nothing out here it's in the countryside, break water. This place is a must to watch the sunset. We were lucky we got speaking to people in a bar the night before that told us about it. We also used the same driver on WeChat. 200RMB for the ride out and 50RMB enterance fee. Definitely worth it! #travelinspiration#couplestrip#hiking#bestislandtraveltowns#roadtrip#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Miao Zai Shan Ye Guesthouse: A Cozy Haven in Yangshuo

Miao Zai Shan Ye Guesthouse: A Cozy Haven in Yangshuo

With infinite longing and anticipation for Yangshuo, I happily arrived at Miao Zai Shan Ye Guesthouse 🚗. Its location is incredibly convenient, surrounded by the charming rural scenery of Yangshuo. The crops in the fields sway in the wind, as if nature itself is dancing 💃, performing a silent rural symphony 🎵. The guesthouse offers a variety of facilities, including a fully equipped gym for fitness enthusiasts to sweat and release energy, as if they have found their own stage 🎯; a crystal-clear swimming pool, like a giant mirror 🪞, embedded in the courtyard, sparkling under the sun. The breakfast is like a morning feast 🥐, with a variety of snacks and fruits, like stars filling the table, making you hungry at first sight. The rooms are elegantly decorated, with soft and warm lighting, like a quiet harbor, providing a place for weary travelers to rest 🛋️. In terms of safety, the fire protection facilities are complete, like silent and loyal guardians 👨‍✈️, always protecting everyone's safety. The prices are transparent and reasonable, with every expense clearly listed, allowing you to spend without worry. The guest reviews are full of praise, with everyone complimenting the thoughtful and meticulous service 👍. The unique cultural experiences in the special services and activities allow guests to travel through time and space, deeply understanding the traditional culture of Yangshuo, as if having an intimate encounter with history 🤝. A trip to Yangshuo is incomplete without visiting Xingping Ancient Town, where you can stroll through the ancient streets and alleys, feeling the sediment of time and the charm of history, with every stone road seemingly telling stories of the past 📜; then head to the Shiwai Taoyuan Scenic Area, where you will feel like you are in a paradise, enjoying the tranquility and peace, and your soul will be deeply cleansed 🧘‍♂️. The time spent at Miao Zai Shan Ye Guesthouse is like a soothing melody, gently humming in your heart, making you feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. It is my cozy haven in Yangshuo, giving me endless comfort and joy, like the warm sun in winter, warming my body and mind, forever staying in my heart, becoming an unforgettable beautiful memory 💕.

Sugarhouse Yangshuo - Sweet name, sweet spot!

Sugarhouse Yangshuo - Sweet name, sweet spot!

Yangshuo Sugarhouse is a boutique style hotel 15 minutes drive from the town of Yangshuo. Nestled in the valley with an insane backdrop and right on the riverfront, this place is incredible! The swimming pool with its roman feel architecture around it is the stand out feature but they have a really nice restaurant and bar too. You can go there without needing to purchase a room for the night (luckily because it’s definitely on the pricey side!). We went for an evening and had a blast! I’m confident you will too! Id recommend going in the warmer months to make the most of the pool. Yangshuo can get a little cold in winter! #newyearadventure

Has time been stolen in Yangshuo?

How time flies! It feels like the blink of an eye and it's time to check out. 😭 There are so many fun things to do here. Waking up, you can see the sky, fields, and mountains through the floor-to-ceiling windows.⛰️ The castle, swimming pool, and Instagram-worthy restaurant are great for taking photos.📷 You can get up close and personal with the alpacas, raccoons, snow squirrels, cats, dogs, hamsters, fancy rats, chinchillas, and other adorable animals in the petting zoo, and even feed them. The pets are all very well-behaved, and I especially love Xiaobai, the poodle. 🐶 It even fetches balls with you. The rape flowers are in full bloom along the Yulong River promenade next to the homestay, and they are particularly charming under the sunset.😍 The afternoon tea, goodnight desserts, and breakfast here, as well as the warm and hospitable hosts, are all wonderful. It's really time to say goodbye to all the good things. 👋 I'm reluctant to leave, but I look forward to seeing you again soon.😁

Water rafting in Xinping | Yangshuo

This is a highly recommend activity for all who visit Yangshuo. Xinping is located close to the Yangshuo railway station so it’s perfect to do this on arrival or before you leave Yangshuo. You need to book a spot for 150rmb and choose a time. There are a few time slots available throughout the day. You can take a didi to the location then a bus will transport you to the top where you claim your ticket and store your valuables in a locker. You will then proceed to another bus which drives you to the starting point. Each boat seats 2 people and the whole course is about 1 hour 30mins. it’s fun it’s safe and there are photos taken at different spots which you can claim at the end for 10rmb per photo or 80rmb for all of your photos. There are shops to buy shoes and T-shirts and anything else you may need if you are not dressed to get wet. Xinping has really cool hotels so I would recommend staying a couple days here! #passionpassport #naturalwonders #summervacation #urbanexplorer

Busy Shopping Street in Yangshou🇨🇳

#timetotravel This is West Street in Yangshou and the locals here named this as foreigner's street as most of the foreigners really come here for accommodation and hang about. It is indeed a busy street with a lot of restaurants, cafes and souviner shops. We came here just to feel the vibe of the area then we bought some gifts to be taken back home. When you are visiting Yangshou, it is impossible for you to come here. This is where everything happens. Such a cool place to visit. #mytripvlog #tripblazers #chinatravel #attraction #shopping

Stunningly Calm River in Yangshuo🇨🇳

#timetotravel Yulong River is of course a must see when you are in Yangshou. Seriously, it is one of the best views that we have ever seen in our travels around China. No wonder, a lot of tourists wants to see this place. The river is just so peacheful and calm that it bamboo rafting becomes its main activity. The scenery around it is just stunning. Photos really don't do it justice. This place is also less crowded than the Li River but both are great to visit whilst in Yangshou! I suggest that you rent a bike so you can just go and explore Yangshou and everything that it has to offer in your own pace. You can enjoy rafting and each raft costs around 250 and can take 2 people on it. Enjoy your day! #mytripvlog #tripblazers #river #chinatravel #attraction

Yangshuo | Flavors

😋 After many years in China I still discover new intriguing and tastebuds awaking flavors. 📍 Yangshuo in the Guangxi province (southern China 🇨🇳) was truly a culinary gem. ⏰ Breakfast: start your day with a hearty bowl of Guilin noodz with some pickles and egg 🕛 Lunch: pork with coriander sprinkled with some peanuts because why not?! Super refreshing on a hot day 🫖 Afternoon tea: there is not a tea more suitable to beat the southern heat than an osmanthus tea. Pair with some osmanthus wine if you’re adventurous. 🍽 Dinner: Apparently beer fish is a must try when in Yangshuo. I opted for shrimps and dep fried river fish instead and find an excuse to visit this beautiful place one more time! #yangshuo #china #foodie #foodieheaven
