The Underrated Firework Ancient Town of Guilin | Free Admission Travel Guide

❤️ Daxu Ancient Town, one of the four major market towns in Guangxi, is only a half-hour drive from Guilin city center. With a history of over 2000 years, it was once a hub of water and land transportation and a famous trading market. ⛩️Attraction📍Location: Daxu Ancient Town, Lingchuan County. 🎫Admission: Free, open all day 🚃Transportation🚌: Take bus 306 at Sanli Shop, the ticket is 2 yuan per person, about 45 minutes🕰️ (a walk is required after getting off) or take a Didi, which costs about 60 yuan. 🌟Highlights: An original and less popular ancient town with a light commercial atmosphere. There are not many visitors, and the town is full of life, worth exploring at every corner! Cobblestone paths, historical relics, time-worn buildings, old family houses~ make one can't help but slow down to listen to the voice of history... 👍Most recommended: ✅ Ancient Town: Daxu Ancient Town is divided into the ancient town area and Maozhou Island. The most valuable part of the town is the museum at the entrance, which has many interesting old plaques. ✅ Wanshou Bridge, not only sturdy in structure and beautiful in design but also surrounded by picturesque scenery. In the hearts of Daxu locals, Wanshou Bridge holds a status similar to that of Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin. ✅ Maozhou Island: There are many farm stays + farms on the island, and if you want to have lunch, it is recommended to eat on the island, which is cheap and plentiful. After eating, you can also pick fruits at a reasonable price. ✅ Stone slab old street, with ancient charm, is now basically well-preserved. Walking on the stone road in the old town, the old houses on both sides seem to be telling one ancient story after another. 🍜🍜Food recommendations: Li River clear water fish, Daxu oil tea, pig's trotters with loach soup, silverfish omelette, pine cake, and osmanthus cake are a must-try, fragrant and not greasy, crispy and delicious with one bite. Would be nice to pair with a cup of tea🍵 or coffee. ⛩️⛩️The ancient town has a total of 13 docks, 5 more than those in Guilin city. The dock that tourists often come into contact with is the one that goes to Maozhou Island.
