If you come to Guiyang for a trip, you must spend an evening to appreciate the shock brought by the brilliance of this city after nightfall! It's not only full of the charm of ancient style but also the magnificent splendor of a bustling city, truly moved to tears by the night view of Guiyang! - ✨Jiaxiu Tower——✨Qingyun Market——✨The White House ⛳Jiaxiu Tower A landmark of Guiyang, it is recommended to arrive at 5:30 PM, so you can capture the sunset, and when it gets dark and the lights are on, 📸 snap away, the night view is really beautiful! It feels like traveling through ancient and modern times. The best photo spots are on both sides of the moat to capture people and Jiaxiu Tower, and on the rooftop of a four-story building across the road for a panoramic view. . ⛳Qingyun Market After Jiaxiu Tower, head to Qingyun Market, a trendy gathering place transformed from an old factory building. The style is somewhat like the cyberpunk style of Changsha's Big Food City Fortress, with many neon signs, quite magical! Inside, there are lots of snacks, hot pot restaurants, jewelry shops, bars where superheroes gather, and more... . ⛳The White House Locate to Huaguoyuan Wetland Park, get off the car and you can see the White House, walk into the square, and the best spot to shoot the White House is where many photographers set up their stalls~ Remember to turn on the fill light at night, the shot is very spectacular! It has a bit of the flavor of The Parisian Macao. The lights off time is around 10:30 PM. Walking forward to the right, you will see Guiyang's Huaguoyuan Twin Towers, the 'I Love Guiyang' internet-famous towers.

🏰 As a landmark building in Guiyang, we still made a point to visit the White House. We took a taxi directly to the footbridge at the base of the building, and only then did we realize how vast the area is. Covering more than 6,000 acres, the exterior walls are incredibly high. The recommended visiting sequence is to first look at the exterior walls and the courtyard inside, check out any exhibitions if available, then cross the street via the footbridge, continue taking photos by the lawn across the street, and finally delve into the Huaguoyuan Wetland Park behind it, taking pictures against the backdrop of the lake, which offers the most beautiful and perfect view. ————————— Name: Guiyang White House (Huaguoyuan Art Center) Address: 150 meters southwest of Building 13, B South District, Huaguoyuan, Songhua Road, Nanming District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province (opposite Huaguoyuan Wetland Park) Open: The exterior is open to visitors all day, the interior is not open for now. Lighting time: 19:00-24:00 Admission: Free ————————— 🏰 This mysterious yet massive impressive building is one of Guiyang's landmarks, the White House. It is recommended to visit in the evening to see both the daytime and nighttime views. It can only be described as magical, as if it houses visitors from another world. 🌟 Mysterious Background There are many legends about this place, and it's unclear which are true. A private mansion costing 2.7 billion, it's forbidden to visit and no one knows what it looks like inside. Now it seems that it can only be admired from the outside, with the lower floors rented out as an exhibition center, hosting some exhibitions, but the true background is unknown. 🌟 Gorgeous Palace-style Architecture From a distance, it looks like a Baroque-style white palace, grand and luxurious, built against the mountain. The classical stunning castle-style and the magnificent architecture are reflected in the lake in front, creating a mirrored image. Taking photos from afar in the Huaguoyuan Wetland Park, the park has a great atmosphere, and the photo success rate is high. The combination of the lake's mirror surface and the distant buildings is absolutely perfect. 🌟 Atmosphere When the Lights Come On The lights come on at 7 pm, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a European castle in a blockbuster film. It's also incredibly beautiful to visit at night. The area is bustling, with the square in front becoming an ideal spot for citizens to sightsee and relax. It's worth noting that this place once set the record for the largest square dance with 100,000 people dancing. 🏰 As a landmark building in Guiyang, it is said that every local has at least one photo of this place on their phone, truly a stunning piece of architecture, like a castle, and worth a visit.

Arrived at Guiyang North in the evening, stayed near the fountain subway station 🚇 🛤Route: Huaguoyuan Wetland Park👉White House👉Twin Towers👉Jiaxiu Tower 🚍Bus to Huaguoyuan Tried Guiyang's sour soup beef (the dipping sauce is special, not used to the sour soup haha) Cross the overpass and you can see the White House and Twin Towers👇 Huaguoyuan Wetland Park (has a European classical garden feel) White House (stroll by the lake at a leisurely pace, the night lights are brilliant and never stop snapping photos) Twin Towers (city landmark 'I love Guiyang') ❤️ Bus to Jiaxiu Tower (iconic building with unbeatable river views) Near Jiaxiu Tower there are also Wenchang Pavilion and Dongshan Temple (didn't go because it was too late)

Two-day and one-night route Day1: North Catholic Church Caijia Street Yantang Street - Radio Lane Wenchang Pavilion Jiaxiu Tower - Huaguoyuan White House - Qingyun Street Day2: Yelang Valley - Xianrendong Attraction introduction North Catholic Church The church built in 1876 is a mix of Chinese and Western styles. The north gate of the church is a Chinese-style pagoda-style bell tower, and the south gate is a church archway. The light inside is beautiful in the afternoon. Radio Lane + Wenchang Pavilion Radio Lane is a street full of life, and Wenchang Pavilion is next to it. You can take a picture of Wenchang Pavilion and Dongshan Temple in the same frame from the ancient city wall. Jiaxiu Tower The iconic building of Guiyang city, the bridge reflection is very beautiful when the lights are on at night by the Nanming River. Zhou Shen also took pictures here. Drones are not allowed inside. Huaguoyuan Wetland Park The White House, built with a cost of 2.7 billion, is in European castle style. It is recommended to come here in the evening, so you can take pictures of both day and night. The landmark Twin Towers is next to it. Yelang Valley It's like walking into a disappeared mysterious tribe, a magical fantasy castle. Sculptor Mr. Song Peilun spent 23 years here, and you can take beautiful pictures anywhere. Ticket price: 20 yuan Opening hours: 11:00-22:00 Guiyang Xianrendong Xianrendong was a place where ancient literati drank and wrote poems, and Wang Yangming left a poem here. It is now a Taoist temple. There is a cave halfway up the mountain where you can overlook the old city of Guiyang.

Although I haven't reduced to my target weight, I still maintain my enthusiasm for losing weight for 2024, and we rushed to the street food in Guiyang. DAY1 We set off in the morning and arrived in Guiyang at noon. Guiyang East Station is far from the city. It took 40 minutes to take a taxi to the hotel where we stayed, which is near Qingyun Market. It's very close to the three major food streets (Caijia, Zhengxin, Minsheng), about 10 minutes by taxi. We ate various snacks at Caijia Street at noon, basically all need to queue. The intestine noodles were not as delicious as imagined, mainly because I was not used to that kind of noodles. Although they were chewy, they were slightly dry. However, the intestines and tripe inside were good (Surprise: the baked bread next to Dong's potato chips near Luo's is just right). We went to Jiaxiu Tower in the afternoon and spent about 90 minutes. No appointment is needed in the off-season. Some people say it's better at night. Then we went to Dongshan Temple to watch the sunset. We thought everyone would go to Qianling Mountain, but this also required queuing to climb the mountain. The mountain is not high, and it takes half an hour to reach the top. The best viewing area is already full of people. We who arrived late could only see countless heads. So when the sun was about to set, we decided to go down the mountain first. You can also enjoy the sunset on the way down the mountain. It is recommended that friends without VIP positions go down the mountain early, so as not to miss the scenery and cannot go down the mountain for a long time after sunset, affecting the subsequent itinerary. We ate Silk Doll and went to the White House at night. The road was very congested at more than 7 o'clock. It is recommended that everyone eat directly in Huaguoyuan and watch the White House after eating. DAY2 We set off early in the morning to Libo Xiaoqikong. The round trip time in one day is quite ample. You can see my other article for the specific itinerary. In the evening, we went to eat Miao Ling sour soup beef. The beef is very fresh and the taste is also unique. DAY3 Because we have to return in the afternoon, we only have the morning left, so we went to Minsheng Road again, checked in the toilet steamed buns, small roll powder, pot crispy glutinous rice cake, and glutinous rice. Among them, the glutinous rice was very disappointing. Please avoid the glutinous rice next to the crispy whistle at the street corner Ding's (I really forgot the name). If you want to eat glutinous rice, you really have to get up early. There is basically none at nine/ten in the morning. The pot crispy glutinous rice cake is quite special, a thin layer of glutinous rice crispy pot, wrapped with sesame and white sugar, etc., very fragrant. Dry goods province flow: Food Street: Caijia, Zhengxin, Minsheng, they are connected to each other, and you can try it when you see the queue. Not everyone is used to eating intestine noodles. You can first go to the noodle shop without queuing to see if you are used to that kind of noodles. There is no need to waste time in the gold medal Luo's. Sunset viewing: Dongshan Temple and Qianling Mountain Surrounding play: Libo Xiaoqikong, a day trip from Guiyang (definitely do not go on a rainy day) Hotel: Nanyue Holiday Hotel-Breakfast is rich, various Guizhou specialty foods, and Zhe'er Gen milk tea, worth a try

I originally wanted to write out each scenic spot separately, but I'm too lazy, so I'll just put it all in one. Guiyang White House (Navigate to Huaguoyuan Wetland Park) I arrived at around six o'clock that day, took a taxi from the airport to the hotel to drop off my luggage, and then went straight to Huaguoyuan. I chose a hotel near Guiyang North Station for convenience to take the high-speed rail to Huangguoshu and Xiaoqikong in the following days (Staying at a hotel near the high-speed rail station also requires a taxi, starting price 10 yuan, walking is a bit far). Taking photos on the bridge in the park is very picturesque, and there is also the Guichuan Sour Soup Beef nearby, which is very delicious and suits my taste. Huangguoshu Waterfall We took the high-speed rail to Anshun Station early the next morning, and the bus station next to it went directly to Huangguoshu Waterfall. Just buy tickets on site. Originally wanted to play the big waterfall and Tianxing Bridge, but after playing the big waterfall, I was a bit tired and gave up Tianxing Bridge to see Doupotang. Overall, the big waterfall on site is indeed very shocking. Remember to buy a 2 yuan raincoat, the waterfall is too big, the water flies on the face. We took the high-speed rail back to Guiyang at four o'clock in the afternoon. Libo Xiaoqikong This is the most anticipated and indeed the most fun scenic spot. Sleep until naturally awake and take the high-speed rail to Libo. Get off the station and go directly to the bus station to take the No. 11 bus. 5 yuan to Xiaoqikong East Gate, about ten minutes. It is recommended to live in the East Gate because the bus station is there and there are more places to eat. There is a small town at the East Gate, which is full of homestays. We arrived at the East Gate around noon, put our luggage in the room and went out to eat. Recommend Miao Kitchen, the sign is very big and easy to find, the portion of the dishes is more than I imagined. We entered the scenic area at about one and a half in the afternoon, and chose to play from west to east. The first stop was directly to Wolongtan on the west gate, the most picturesque one. Sisters who like to take pictures can take pictures there for two hours. Enter from the east gate, take the sightseeing car to Xiaoqikong Bridge Station, and then change the car to the west gate from here, and then start playing from the west gate to the east. The people are okay, and they are less than I imagined. We finished playing Xiaoqikong at five o'clock, and then went to see Daqikong. Daqikong is not fun, just take a boat, one way 20 per person. Other scenic spots are closed for road maintenance. In general, it is not recommended to go, there is no need to specifically set aside time to play Daqikong. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village We stayed in Xiaoqikong for one night, and went to Miao Village early the next morning. It takes more than three hours to take a bus from Xiaoqikong, 110 per person. Mainly because I made an appointment to arrive at the Miao Village to take a photo at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Miao Village is a bit like a commercialized ancient city, all commercial streets, there is nothing good to stroll around. If you don't plan to take pictures, there is really no need to go, it's far and tossing, but it's worth it to take good-looking photos haha. I chose Wuyuejia, and I was really surprised by the effect after shooting. It can be directly output in the original picture. It is said that the refinement will take more than 20 days. The makeup, shooting, and selection of photos took a total of three and a half hours. Overall, I am very satisfied with the service, makeup, and photography. I hope the refinement will not disappoint me.
