Come and experience the picturesque scenery of Guilin.

🔴Tips for avoiding pitfalls during spring outings in March and April 1️⃣1. Be sure to visit the Ten Mile Gallery from March to April. The rapeseed flowers on both sides of the road are incredibly beautiful and perfect for taking photos~ 2️⃣2. The Longji Rice Terraces can also be viewed from March to April. The limited-time mirror-like and star-lit terraces are truly stunning. If you have enough time, you can stay overnight in Longji and enjoy the limited scenery of the misty terraces the next morning. The stilt house accommodations in Ping'an Village offer a wonderful experience🥰 3️⃣3. The scenery of Xiangong Mountain after a rain shower is also beautiful. The peaks are surrounded by clouds and mist, creating a magnificent "I can see all the mountains small" atmosphere. 4️⃣4. From March to April, you can choose to tour the Li River by boat or bamboo raft, both of which are great for taking photos! 5️⃣5. Near Xingping Ancient Town, you can experience "fireside tea brewing," which creates a wonderful atmosphere. The aroma of tea blends with the scenery to create a unique spark.

The water flows, but the moon stays; the moon departs, but the water still flows." Step into Elephant Trunk Hill Park, featured on the cover of elementary school textbooks, named for its resemblance to a giant elephant drinking from the Li River. It is considered a symbol of Guilin's landscape. 📍Li River ⏰9:00–14:00 🎫245 ⭐️Direct route from Guilin to Yangshuo, enjoy the beautiful scenery for 4 hours One of the most beautiful rivers in China, with a total length of approx. 437 km, the scenery along the way is picturesque and known as the "Hundred Mile Gallery." It's also the location depicted on the back of the 20 RMB banknote! 📍Yulong River ⏰9:00–17:30 🎫100+ ⭐️Manually operated bamboo rafts for drifting The banks of the Yulong River are lined with continuous green mountains, each with its own unique shape. On sunny days, the blue sky, white clouds, clear water, and green grass create a bright and cheerful scene. On rainy days, the mist and clouds add a touch of enchantment, perfectly showcasing the beauty of Yangshuo, creating a scene of "boating on blue waves, people touring within a painting." 📍Yangshuo Yangshuo is one of the most charming towns in Guilin, known as a "paradise on earth." It is surrounded by magnificent karst mountains, lush rice paddies, and tranquil villages. 📍Ten Mile Gallery ⏰9:00–18:00 🎫Free ⭐️Recommended for cycling tours The Ten Mile Gallery in Yangshuo is a scenic area along the Li River, located in Moon Hill. Mountains surround the water, and water encircles the mountains, resembling a painted scroll. Along the way, there are unique peaks and beautiful countryside views, sparking the imagination. 📸Guilin is a natural, large-scale photography studio, with unique beauty hidden in every corner. Whether it's in ancient villages, where mottled walls and bluestone roads tell stories of the past; or among the misty mountains, where the peaks appear like a fairyland; or by the shimmering riverbanks, reflecting the shadows of the mountains and water, any spot is a perfect backdrop for stunning photos. Even filters seem out of place here, becoming "superfluous embellishments." 💕Important Notes: 1. The weather in Guilin is changeable, so remember to bring rain gear and sunscreen. 2. Pay attention to safety when riding a bamboo raft and follow the instructions of the staff. 3. You can rent an electric scooter in Yangshuo for convenient travel. 4. Be careful when buying local products to avoid being scammed.
