West Street Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Yangshuo | 3 Days 2 Nights Travel Itinerary, The Ultimate Pitfall-Avoidance Guide
| 3 Days 2 Nights Travel Itinerary, The Ultimate Pitfall-Avoidance Guide. Traveling with kids and dogs in Yangshuo, where every step is a scene, and it's picturesque like a scroll‼️ Although mom had a little fall while cycling, luckily we didn't fall into any traps, no queuing, no traffic jams, and we had a happy 3 days and 2 nights. Here comes the travel guide
Day 1: The most beautiful Yulong River cycling
●Route: Depart from the hotel👉Ten-Mile Gallery👉Gongnong Bridge👉Yulong River Trail (navigation)👉Yulong River Dam👉Yangshuo check-in point at the end of West Street. Enjoy delicious food on West Street in the evening.
●No entrance fee for the whole journey, few people and beautiful scenery‼️
●Tips: West Street is similar to most ancient town streets in the country, heavily commercialized, and not worth strolling around. Better to take more photos by the water
Day 2: Xianggong Mountain👉Xingping Wharf👉20 Yuan Background Spot👉Xingping Ancient Town
●Xianggong Mountain: Take a boat from the wharf of Xingping Ancient Town to the opposite shore, the boat fare is 10 Yuan/person, it is recommended not to skimp. After landing, take a chartered car to Xianggong Mountain, 150 Yuan/person, including the entrance ticket of 60 Yuan, which can take you directly to the entrance. The viewing platform of Xianggong Mountain offers the most beautiful scenery of Yangshuo, which is definitely worth a visit
●20 Yuan Background Spot: I have a detailed introduction in my previous note, everyone be careful not to be fooled to other places.
●Xingping Ancient Town: Personally, I think it lacks distinctive features, you can choose whether to go according to your preferences, not far from the 20 Yuan Background Spot.
●Note: Parking and electric vehicles are charged‼️
Day 3: Fuli Bridge
●The scenery here is beautiful, and if you have enough time, you must go. It is also the starting point of the bamboo rafting wharf.
●Tip: Because we had to hit the road, we played for a while on the third morning and then left. You can arrange bamboo rafting on the third day‼️
【Precautions】
●Yulong River bamboo rafting: Be sure to book in advance, tickets are released promptly at 8 pm every night, and we missed out because we missed it.
●Renting electric motorcycles: It is recommended to rent from the hotel or homestay where you are staying, 30 Yuan/day, ride back directly after use, convenient and affordable.
●Norovirus: I heard that this virus has been quite serious recently, so we didn't eat any raw or cold food. The taste of beer fish is mediocre, but there is a beef rice noodle that is really delicious, economical, and the kids also liked it a lot, we ate there for two consecutive meals.

1️⃣When traveling to Guilin, the general destinations are concentrated in two areas, one is in Guilin city, and the other is Yangshuo. It is recommended to spend 1-2 days in the city and 1-2 days in Yangshuo.
2️⃣The main attractions in Guilin city are Elephant Trunk Hill, Wangcheng, Dongxi Lane, Two Rivers and Four Lakes, and Zhengyang Road Pedestrian Street. These places are all close to each other, so it is most convenient to stay nearby.
3️⃣You must book in advance for the night tour of Two Rivers and Four Lakes, otherwise you may not be able to buy boat tickets on the day.

Longji Rice Terrace Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The Longji Terraces in Guangxi are so beautiful with their layers upon layers of terraces
Guangxi Longji Terraces, this magnificent poem of nature, has always been a sought-after destination for travelers.
Walking on this magical land, you will see the terraced fields stacked like a ladder to heaven, with the green rice fields, winding mountain roads, and simple villages, all showcasing the unique charm of Guangxi. Drifting on a bamboo raft among the mountains of Longji Terraces is an unforgettable experience.
The Longji Terraces in Guangxi are not just a beautiful rural landscape, but also carry the farming culture passed down through generations. Here, you can visit ancient villages, learn about the customs and culture of ethnic minorities such as the Yao and Zhuang, taste authentic cuisine, and feel the strong ethnic atmosphere.
Step into the Longji Terraces of Guangxi, let us together feel the magnificent poem of nature, on this magical land, experience the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.
Come and copy the homework! This guide to Longji Terraced Fields is enough
Last month I went to Guangxi with my friends. When it comes to Guangxi, everyone knows that 'Guilin's landscape is the best under heaven'. In fact, around Guilin, there is another beautiful terraced field scenic area - Longji Terraced Fields, known as the 'crown of the world's terraced fields'.
Blue sky and white clouds☁, layers of terraces🌾, like a huge ink painting in front of my eyes, exactly the same as what I saw in the TV commercials, casually shooting is a big scene effect, I really regret why I only come now!
The terraces have different beauty in each season, the best check-in season is from May to October:
🌾May-June: Watering period, watch 'mirror terraces'
🌾July-September: Growing period, watch 'matcha green terraces'
🌾End of September-October: Autumn harvest period, watch 'golden terraces'
⛰️About the scenic spot:
Longji Terraced Fields is a large-scale terraced field group. Ping'an Terraced Fields and Jinkeng Terraced Fields are the main viewing areas. Ping'an was developed earlier and has more tourists. Jinkeng was developed later but is larger and has more viewing points. Therefore, we chose to stay in Jinkeng Terraced Fields this time for convenience.
🏠About accommodation:
There are many homestays in the Longji scenic area. We chose the Muye Chenxi Homestay, which is very close to the viewing platform. It takes 5-20 minutes to walk🚶🏻 to the viewing platform 1-2. The important thing is that I really like the design style of this homestay!
The overall design comes from the hands of British huang family architects. Whether it's design aesthetics or living experience, it didn't disappoint us. The room is very warm and tidy, and the terraced scenery is just outside the window, which is simply the life I long for~
The homestay also has a 180-degree viewing platform, which is very open and full of green plants🌿🌿. Sitting on the platform and looking into the distance, you can see the scenery of Longji Terraced Fields.
The afternoon tea is also very good, the coffee☕ and desserts🍰 are all professional. There are limited desserts in different seasons. I strongly recommend Double Chocolate Parlinne, Passion Fruit Basque, and Rum Cherry Chocolate. With a cup of coffee, sitting on the viewing terrace, blowing the mountain breeze, looking at the terraced scenery in the distance, it's so cool!
🥢About food:
There are no special restaurants in the scenic area. We all eat in the homestay, dining on the viewing platform, which is quite comfortable.
I didn't expect the food in the homestay to be delicious, very authentic mountain food: spicy chicken, bamboo rice, spring water fish, rice fragrant fish are all must-order. The ingredients are very fresh, and I, a person who doesn't usually like to eat fish, can't stop praising it~
🚘About transportation:
🚗The most convenient is of course self-driving. The homestay sends the location of 'Tiantouzhai Parking Lot' in advance, and the car can directly reach the door of the shop. The last section of the road is quite steep and narrow. The homestay very thoughtfully arranged for a driver to take us up.
🚌Guilin North Station/Guilin Station/Yangshuo-Longji Terraced Fields Jinkeng Dazhai Parking Lot (you can take a direct bus) The homestay is responsible for the transfer from Dazhai Parking Lot to the shop.
🎫About tickets:
Adult ticket: 80 yuan
Child ticket: 40 yuan

Yulong River Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Strolling in the painting
'The reflection of the peaks makes the mountains float on the water, without water and mountains, it's not captivating.' This truly depicts Guilin thoroughly. People embedded in this landscape will see many naturally formed scenes. During the day, there are green mountains and clear waves, at dusk, it's golden and purple, and at night, there are layers of shadows. The creation of ink painting between mountains and rivers is probably conveying this.
When boating, when looking at the river, what will people think of? They will think of 'Only the breeze on the river, and the bright moon between the mountains, the ears hear it and it becomes sound, the eyes meet it and it becomes color. There is no prohibition to take it, and it is inexhaustible to use it. This is the inexhaustible treasure of the creator, and it is what I and you are comfortable with.'
GuiC | I declare this is definitely a celestial-level tour route in Guilin

●Xianggong Mountain: Take a boat from the wharf of Xingping Ancient Town to the opposite shore, the boat fare is 10 Yuan/person, it is recommended not to skimp. After landing, take a chartered car to Xianggong Mountain, 150 Yuan/person, including the entrance ticket of 60 Yuan, which can take you directly to the entrance. The viewing platform of Xianggong Mountain offers the most beautiful scenery of Yangshuo, which is definitely worth a visit
●20 Yuan Background Spot: I have a detailed introduction in my previous note, everyone be careful not to be fooled to other places.
●Xingping Ancient Town: Personally, I think it lacks distinctive features, you can choose whether to go according to your preferences, not far from the 20 Yuan Background Spot.
●Note: Parking and electric vehicles are charged‼️
Day 3: Fuli Bridge
●The scenery here is beautiful, and if you have enough time, you must go. It is also the starting point of the bamboo rafting wharf.
●Tip: Because we had to hit the road, we played for a while on the third morning and then left. You can arrange bamboo rafting on the third day‼️
【Precautions】
●Yulong River bamboo rafting: Be sure to book in advance, tickets are released promptly at 8 pm every night, and we missed out because we missed it.
●Renting electric motorcycles: It is recommended to rent from the hotel or homestay where you are staying, 30 Yuan/day, ride back directly after use, convenient and affordable.
●Norovirus: I heard that this virus has been quite serious recently, so we didn't eat any raw or cold food. The taste of beer fish is mediocre, but there is a beef rice noodle that is really delicious, economical, and the kids also liked it a lot, we ate there for two consecutive meals.

🍴Food & Coffee
1️⃣Xingping Ancient Town Huashan Coffee, with super large floor-to-ceiling windows!
2️⃣Rural feelings farmhouse dishes, this one is located on the edge of the rice field, is a special Guangxi farmhouse dish. The boss lady is very enthusiastic and cooks a good hand. Recommend to try the kiln chicken, which is a farmhouse chicken roasted in a kiln jar, the chicken is very tender. The vegetables are particularly sweet~
3️⃣Rice Field Coffee & Murakami Haruki, pick a sunny day and go early, there are many people!
4️⃣CLOUD COFFEE, 1Q84 Tree Coffee House (Regret of the collection)
☑️Xingping Ancient Town
Buy a ticket on the left hand side when you come out of the train station, and store your luggage after you arrive (10 yuan/large piece). Ride a small electric car to check in 20 yuan, ride along the small road to Huashan Coffee to keep warm. If you don't check in other attractions, reserve an afternoon tour time.
☑️Yangshuo West Street
It's just a few bucks to take a taxi to West Street, and I recommend using Gaode for more discounts. There are many ethnic photo shoots, and there are souvenir shops, you can come over for dinner, and you can stroll around after eating. There are programs for the New Year!
☑️Yulong River Scenic Area
Lazy people travel, the scenic area is right in front of the hotel so it's very convenient. The nearest is the old county pier, you can ride a bike from there to visit the rice fields and Xiangui Bridge, Jimah Pier.
☑️Ten Mile Gallery
You can arrange the same day check-in with the Yulong Scenic Area, the scenery of cycling is very beautiful, just the wind is cold, you have to wear a coat and scarf!
☑️Guilin Qian Gu Qing
An indoor 1-hour performance, presenting Guilin's thousand-year history in the form of song and dance, you can find tickets at the door, about 170-180.
