    The Detian Waterfall in China is majestic and powerful, while the Ban Gioc Waterfall in Vietnam is graceful and charming. They share the same source and flow together, combining strength and gentleness to form the largest transnational waterfall in Asia and the fourth largest in the world! On a sunny morning, a rainbow appears and disappears, as if building a bridge of friendship between China and Vietnam!

    To be honest, the scenery at Mingshi Pastoral Park is just average. I wouldn't recommend it to tourists from outside Guangxi Province. It's a long trip, so it's better to go to Yangshuo and take a bamboo raft to enjoy the Guilin landscape. This combined ticket only covers two-thirds of the bamboo raft trip (I feel ripped off; this wasn't mentioned in the online ticket information). A single ticket for the scenic area covers the entire trip. Once you disembark, it's just a small park, and that's it—you're out of the scenic area. Note: The auntie singing folk songs on the shore was genuine and her singing was beautiful; the boatman was simple and honest; the young lady on the bamboo raft was beautiful, kind, and provided excellent service. She even sang us folk songs by Liu Sanjie—her voice was sweet and melodious; kudos to them! Thank you! Detian Waterfall is spectacular and breathtaking; highly recommended! The scenic area isn't large, but the route is well-designed, with multiple viewing and photo opportunities along the way back. I suggest taking a bamboo raft to see the waterfall up close; I think the price is reasonable.

    Not all attractions in the scenic area were open; many were under maintenance during the off-season. The overall scenery was still beautiful, very suitable for seniors. There wasn't much walking, so the photos turned out great. The scenery on both sides of the boat was quite similar in Chongzuo, leading to some aesthetic fatigue. I found the land route to be more refreshing and cost-effective, and you could even have coffee inside a cave, which was quite interesting. The banana groves and sugarcane fields complemented the surrounding karst landscape perfectly.

    It's a good place to learn about history, see the still-operational southern border crossing, and look at Vietnam across the border. If you buy tickets in advance on Ctrip, you can use navigation to get to the scenic area parking lot; don't go to the visitor center, otherwise you'll have to walk a long way.

    This is a World Cultural Heritage site in Guangxi. The paintings on the cliff face created by the Luoyue people more than 2,500 years ago remain unanswered. How they painted, what they used, and why they painted remain unanswered to this day. The round trip by boat takes about two and a half hours. Along the way, you can enjoy the karst landscape on both sides of the Mingjiang River. Guided tours are available. It's a must-see when visiting Chongzuo.

    Overall, I'd give a perfect score of five to the staff. From their explanations and service to their constant reminders, everything they did showed their care for this precious species of white-headed langur. Don't have too high expectations for the pristine karst landscape and vast sugarcane fields; it's all for the animals' natural habitat.

    The ice cave is crystal clear and colorful, very beautiful. The stalactites in the Dragon Palace Cave are all kinds of strange and impressive. You can also take a comfortable two-person car for sightseeing.

    The free ancient city is newly built and commercialized, but since it is free for you to come and play, it is better than those domestic ones that are enclosed and charge fees. It is recommended to come in the evening, the night view is several levels higher than the daytime, and there are performances if you catch the weekend.
