A leisurely one-day oxygen trip in Guilin, not in a hurry

Guilin city is not big, the tourism infrastructure is mature, and the attractions are very convenient. The tourist circle centered on Elephant Trunk Hill🐘 covers the old attractions of Guilin, which can be reached by bus🚌 and walking🚶‍♀️. First stop: Elephant Trunk Hill (about 90 minutes) Elephant Trunk Hill Scenic Area, 🎫tickets are free, 🉑can be booked on Ctrip, scan ID card🪪 at the entrance, the park has 2 entrances and exits. Please note⚠️ there is a river channel after entering the park. If you want to climb the mountain, you need to walk along the river bank inside. If you want to take pictures of Elephant Trunk Hill🐘, you need to walk along the river channel outside, where you can take a panoramic view of people and mountains. Second stop: Sun and Moon Twin Towers (about 30 minutes) Sun and Moon Twin Towers, tickets🎫 35, Ctrip 28. But I think you can not buy tickets, in the Sun and Moon Twin Towers Cultural Park, you can take pictures of the shadowy twin towers during the day, and it's great to take pictures📷 under the tower at night, free. If you want to climb the tower, buy a ticket. 🍜Search for a well-reviewed rice noodle shop nearby for lunch, when in Rome, do as the Romans do~ Third stop: Jingjiang Prince's Mansion (about 90 minutes) Duxiu Peak Wangcheng Scenic Area, tickets🎫 100, is the most expensive attraction in the city. I didn't go in, it's the mansion of Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, built 34 years earlier than the Forbidden City, said to be the dragon vein and cultural vein of Guilin, 🉑see the whole Guilin city. We can't climb, and the Forbidden City is only 40, so we just checked in at the door. Fourth stop: East-West Alley (about 90 minutes) East-West Alley, is a commercial street, and Zhengyang Pedestrian Street is in a T-shape. So you can shop here until night, go to the pedestrian street, a bit like Chengdu's Kuanzhai Alley, antique architectural block, there are various small shops inside, and many places to take ethnic portraits. Fifth stop: Zhengyang Pedestrian Street (40 minutes for shopping, meals not included) Zhengyang Pedestrian Street, is a food street around the scenic area. There are many shops selling souvenirs, but many shops are not open before 4:00 pm. The restaurants are average, maybe I'm not used to it, but it's not expensive, search online are all tourist set meals. 🥗Have dinner and wait for the sunset~ Six stop: Night view of Sun and Moon Twin Towers Sun and Moon Twin Towers, look at the Sun and Moon Twin Towers at night, it's like visiting a small park, the opposite Li River is also a different quiet from the daytime. There are many fruit🥭 stalls on the roadside, if you like to experience, you can buy some, don't care about the price. Such a day will not be tired, and the tour is very comfortable, suitable for families with elderly and children👪 to travel. If you are fast, you can go back to the hotel for a nap.
