Seven-Star Rock, located in the belly of Putuo Mountain within Guilin's Seven-Star Park, is a landmark of Guilin's landscape and a symbol of culture. It is named for the seven peaks surrounding it, which are arranged north to south like the Big Dipper. As early as the Sui and Tang dynasties, Seven-Star Rock was a tourist destination, also known as 'Qixia Cave,' and is one of the eight ancient sights of Guilin. Xu Xiake visited here twice for inspection, entering Seven-Star Rock from Qixia Temple. Qixia Temple was originally built during the Tang Dynasty and was renamed Shoufo Temple in the Ming Dynasty. Inside the temple, there are exquisite Tang-style Buddha statues, precious Dongyang wood carvings, and the tallest standing white jade Guanyin in China. Seven-Star Rock was originally a section of an underground river. Due to crustal movement, it rose to become a karst cave, with a history of over one million years. The cave maintains a constant temperature of 20 degrees Celsius all year round, and the middle layer area is open for visitors. At the entrance of Seven-Star Rock, there is the inscription 'The First Cave Heaven' written by Ming Dynasty scholar Zhang Wenxi. Inside the cave, there are more than 40 scenic spots such as Ancient Banyan Welcoming Guests, Bianzhai Scenery, Gathering of Heroes, Milky Way and Magpie Bridge, Stone Forest Seclusion, Peacock Spreading Its Tail, and Sending Guests with Pan Peach, which are all thought-provoking. Camel Mountain is a landmark landscape of Guilin known as 'Pot Mountain Red Glow,' with an altitude of 187.4 meters. It is shaped like a wine pot and is also known as Pot Mountain or Wine Pot Mountain. There are many wild macaques at the foot of the mountain. On the southern slope of Crescent Moon Mountain, there are more than 220 cliff carvings composed of Longyin Rock and Longyin Cave. There is a pavilion called Lanyue Pavilion at the top of the mountain, also known as Xuyun Pavilion. On the northern slope of Yuheng Peak of Crescent Moon Mountain, there is the Crescent Moon Tower, which corresponds to the wonderful pattern of 'Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon.' The inscription 'Crescent Moon Tower' was written by the literary giant Guo Moruo. On the mountainside of Putuo Mountain, there is Wenchang Pavilion, also known as 'Yongcui Pavilion,' which was built in the Ming Dynasty. On the mountainside of Tianji Peak, there is Bowang Pavilion, and at the peak, there is 'Zhaixing Pavilion,' a single-eave, octagonal pavilion, which is the only high pavilion among the seven peaks of Seven-Star Mountain. To the east, you can see Yao Mountain, Tiansheng Mountain, Pingfeng Mountain, and Cat Mountain; to the north, you can view Yu Mountain, Diecai Mountain, Fubo Mountain, Old Man Mountain, and the Li River; to the west, you can admire Elephant Trunk Hill and the victories of Nanxi, hence the name 'Kuangguan Pavilion.'

"For Han Dynasty steles, see Shandong; for Tang Dynasty steles, see Xi'an; for Song Dynasty steles, look to Guilin." As the most concentrated and typical place for Guilin stone inscriptions, the Guihai Stele Forest located within Seven-Star Park naturally comes to mind. Longyin Cave and Longyin Grotto have been famous scenic spots since ancient times, where officials and literati throughout the dynasties have lingered and been inspired to write poetry and make inscriptions. With styles including regular, cursive, clerical, and seal scripts all present, they form the spectacular sight of the stele forest in and around the two caves, where 'almost every cliff has been carved, leaving no stone unengraved.' The 'Prodigal Prime Minister' Li Bangyan (Li Shimei), who was demoted to Xunzhou (today's Guiping, Guangxi) for kneeling and begging for peace, inscribed 'Longyin Cave'. The male Guanyin from 1665, which uses the yangwen line engraving technique, is a masterpiece that perfectly combines the art of painting with the skill of stone carving. The tradition of floating cups along a winding stream, also known as 'Nine Bends Floating Cups', takes place every year on the Shangsi Festival (the third day of the third lunar month). People sit in rows by the winding stream, place wine cups on the water, and let them drift with the current. Whoever's front the cup stops in front of, that person must compose a poem or take a drink. The custom of floating cups along a winding stream originated in the Zhou Dynasty, and the Eastern Jin calligrapher Wang Xizhi's 'Preface to the Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion' records a grand gathering of this tradition. The stone carvings of the floating cups along a winding stream in the Guihai Stele Forest are relics from the Song Dynasty and are currently the largest and most complete stone carvings of this tradition found. The earliest of these is the 'Azalea Flowers Chanting Poems' by Zhang Jun and Liu Chonggui from the first year of the Qian Ning era of Emperor Zhaozong of Tang (894 AD). Zhang Jun, while serving as a military staff officer in Xiu State (today's Guiping City), once stayed briefly on the banks of the Xiao Dong River in front of Longyin Grotto.

Zhaoqing's most famous scenic spot is right in the city center, making transportation very convenient.

There are boat tickets for sale in the caves, but actually, there's no need to take a boat. You can see all the cave scenery without it, and even more meticulously.

Here you can find the ancient charm of history and also gaze at the city's prosperity from afar. Each level has its own features.

Qixing Park is the oldest park in Guilin. The Qixingyan in the park is an underground dark river. Unfortunately, if you want to repeat the ticket sales, you will not go in. In addition to the ticket factor, Seven Star Park is still worth a visit. Guilin's humanity, history, and landscape are perfectly presented in the park, suitable for walking alone.

There are many clever hills in downtown Guilin. The well-known Elephant Trunk Hill has become a symbol of Guilin. However, there is also a camel mountain in downtown Guilin, and there are not many people who know it. Camel Mountain is located in Qixing Park, the largest scenic spot in Guilin City, east of the Minjiang River. The Seven Star Scenic Area covers an area of about 135 hectares. Because there are seven hills in the scenic spot, it looks like the Big Dipper from the top down. In addition to a camel mountain, there is a beautiful cave in the scenic spot, called Qixingyan. To visit the cave, you have to buy another ticket. The seven-star scenic spot passes 115 yuan. The history of Qixingyan is very long. From the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Qixingyan is a famous tourist attraction, leaving more than 120 inscriptions. Among them, Xu Xiake, a great traveler of the Ming Dynasty, came to Qixingyan twice. Ming Dynasty painter Zhang Wenxi called it For the "first hole of the sky." In order to protect the growth of stalactites and stone pillars in the cavity, the lights are not normally illuminated. Only when the tourists pass by, the light switches are manually controlled. In the caves, the tour guides and the team are also to be visited. The cave is 1,100 meters long and it takes an hour to visit. Five colors, stone pillars and stalactites in different poses make the cave a dream space. The Qixingyan is divided into upper, middle and lower layers. The upper layer is the remaining cavern of the top, and the lower layer is the underground river still developing. The middle layer is now for sightseeing.
