| The Blue Hole that belongs to the Chinese. When I was watching 'The Five Flowers', I really liked the Blue Hole in Croatia😍, but when I was making a travel guide for Guangxi, I stumbled upon Sanmen Sea🤩! It's not that I can't afford to go to Croatia, but Sanmen Sea offers better value for money✨! I was instantly attracted and decisively added it to my itinerary! I arrived at noon today (the third day of the lunar month, 2.12), and the weather was fantastic😄! You need to exchange your ticket at the second-floor ticket office🎫 (you can buy it online in advance), and then you will get a number and go downstairs to wait for your number to be called to board the ship🚢. There weren't too many people, no crowding, and I waited for about 50 minutes⏰. Just wandering around nearby, and soon it was my turn😜! Traveling during the Spring Festival, this speed is very OK👍! There are a limited number of boats, with options for 10-person boats and 6-person boats🚤. One comes back, another goes, and as soon as it's full, the boat departs. The boat tour lasts about 45 minutes, and there are seven caves in total, with three currently developed. Each section of water has a slightly different color, with shades of sea blue, Tiffany blue, emerald green... In short, it's really beautiful🤩! Everyone was going 'wow——' all the way, and the photos just can't capture the shock of what the eyes see📷! Here, I felt completely healed😚, it's really too beautiful!

I declare!! Guangxi can be enshrined as divine!!! Guangxi is really an underestimated place, every spot here is no less than "Guilin". Having visited so many provinces in China, Guangxi is definitely in my top three! 1. Sanmenhai (p1) The awe that Sanmenhai brings to me is indescribable, when the weather is good, the water glows!! There is a magical cave overhead, isn't this the real "Ghost Blows Out the Light"? 2. Detian Waterfall (p2-p3) It turns out this is the calendar I saw when I was a child. In my memory, waterfalls should look like Detian Waterfall, but I really haven't seen such a beautiful waterfall in my daily life. I haven't been to Guangxi. I know the waterfall on the calendar is right here! 3. Haokun Lake (p4) Only by hiking and overlooking Haokun Lake can you see such beautiful scenery. Isn't this Guangxi's "Nam Co"? Shocking! You must walk to the top of the mountain, the scenery of Haokun Lake will tell you the answer. 4. Qinglong Lake (p5) This should be an abandoned attraction, so very few people come here, but it can be said to be Guangxi's Xinjiang, streams, grasslands, cattle, horses, milk water, and ducks, lying on the lawn and letting yourself relax. 5. Mingshi Pastoral (p6) The essence of Mingshi countryside lies in quietly enjoying the elegance of the fields here. There are no magnificent landscapes, but it will definitely relax you, especially the morning jog, with some fog it's like a fairyland. 6. Tongling Grand Canyon (p7p8p9) After visiting Detian Waterfall, I thought I would not be shocked by the beauty of waterfalls again. Unexpectedly, Tongling Grand Canyon brought me surprises that go far beyond that. Super cinematic! Social Drilling (p10) Right next to Sanmenhai, a few minutes' drive away. This is a natural cave, very spectacular. Inside there are many stones of different shapes. Don't miss it when you come to Sanmenhai, it's too magical 8. Dongyu Bay (p11p12) The filming location of "The Journey of Flower", previously known as Anping Xianhe, the whole scenic area is toured by boat, there will be an island in the middle, there is a sense of memory of "The Peach Blossom Spring", suddenly becoming bright and open Qingxiu Mountain (p13p14) Although Qingxiu Mountain is only in the urban area of Nanning, please promise me to leave a day for it, okay? The garden planning with various plants competing for beauty is also particularly beautiful. We need strategies and positioning. From the strategies on my homepage, we can find the Guangxi line. We have already made the strategy: Haokun Lake hiking Detian Waterfall Tongling Grand Canyon Mingshi Pastoral Nanning Qingxiu Mountain Dongyu Bay Longkara Qinglong Lake

|Think about sending money secretly. 🟣Society wears holes & various sinkholes 1⃣️Tickets & Transportation These holes and holes are natural landscapes, they are free of charge, search for the destination on the map and drive there, but you must drive, otherwise you will break your leg. 2⃣️Wear holes & sinkholes The larger and more photogenic holes near the Three Sea Scenic Area are the Society's sinkholes. The more powerful sinkhole is the Ma Wangdong sinkhole, we didn't go to this place, so I won't say much. 3⃣️Precautions Everyone must pay attention to safety when taking pictures in the Society's holes. I climbed up the big rock to take p1, and almost fell down when I came down. Don't be too aggressive. 🟠Three Sea 1 Play details The ticket price is actually the boat ticket. Take a trip into the underground river, pass through three karst cave mouths, and enter the hinterland of the Three Seas, with a water depth of 25 meters, which is the water source of the locals. The Three Seas are really 🉐️ beautiful, the color of the water is blue-green and it is milky, no matter how you take pictures, it will come out, such as p6-p13. But the play time is quite short, about 20 minutes, and then return. 2 Precautions Because the local tourism management is not perfect, the road is very narrow, friends who want to go should set off as early as possible, otherwise there will be no parking spaces, and people will be crowded in the small waiting hall, which is very annoying.

Today, I embarked on a journey to Sanmenhai in Guangxi. I have long heard of its reputation as the 'Window of the World' and am filled with anticipation. 🌟 Sanmenhai is located in Fengshan County, Guangxi, and its natural landscape and culture of longevity have piqued my curiosity. I chose to take a boat tour, traveling upstream along the Poxin River. The color of the water changes with the light and angle, sometimes emerald green, sometimes blue-green, and sometimes ice blue, creating a mesmerizing beauty. 🚣‍♀️💙 Along the way, I saw three skylights that boats can enter. The water at the first skylight is as blue as the sea, making it hard to distinguish whether it's a river, lake, or sea. The second skylight is known as the 'Half-Moon Skylight,' with an entrance shaped like a bright moon. The third skylight is famous for its warm winters and cool summers, and the rocks at its entrance shine like jade under the sunlight. 🌌💎 Sanmenhai is not only blessed with beautiful natural scenery but also rich in history and culture. It was once the secret headquarters of the 21st Division of the Red Seventh Army, witnessing the early revolutionary history of the Communist Party of China. 🏰📜 The ticket price is 98 RMB, which includes the cost of the boat tour. If you are driving there, it is advised to drive carefully as some mountain roads can be winding. Sanmenhai is close to Bama, a town known for its longevity, with fresh air and an ideal natural 'oxygen bar.' Don't forget to try the local specialties.
