"By borrowing from the West Lake, you can move the Yangshuo to the Seven Piles of Mountains. Adding silk and willows to the embankment, the painting will remain between the heavens and the earth." This poem is about the scenery of the Qixingyan in Zhaoqing. As long as you walk around here, You will be surprised to find that the landscape of Zhaoqing is also comparable to the West Lake in Hangzhou and the mountain view of Guilin.
The central lake, Bohai Lake, East Lake, Honglian Lake, Qinglian Lake, and Lihu Lake are separated by lake embankments, just like a string of jade necklaces.
The pavilions and round-hole bridges form a frame of scenery, like a slowly-painted ink painting. Picturesque dreams, such as being in a paradise.
Looking up, the ancient temple is in the mountains. This is especially suitable for people who want to say goodbye to the city's troubles, accompanied by breeze, bird language, walking in the mountains to get the inner peace.

Dinghu Mountain Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
The peaks of Dinghu Mountain in Zhaoqing overlap and the air is fresh. The Dinghu Mountain virgin forest is densely covered with 1,856 species of wild higher plants. Walking into the depths of the canyon, there is a waterfall named Longtan Waterfall, which is crystal clear. You can sit under the tree and enjoy the scenery of the stream, slowly blending into it, and the heart gradually calms down. The tiredness of climbing the mountain is also very relaxed at this moment.
I am carrying a mosquito repellent ring.
Go slow!
2 If you have a two-way sightseeing ticket to spend a lot of time in it, don't worry to get to the end. And the air here is particularly good, you can feel it more slowly, and enjoy the time inside.
Stay in the Feishuitan
3 Next to the Feishuitan, you will see some grandfathers sitting and chatting by the water, and the tourists are always taking pictures and catching the most beautiful moments. After taking a photo, don't worry, walk like a local, sit in the water and daze, blow the wind of the waterfall, watch the waterfall go down, close your eyes and listen to the birds' songs. Now is the most precious moment to cherish.

Dinghushan, the leader of the four famous mountains in Lingnan
Coming to Dinghushan, known as the leader of the four famous mountains in Lingnan, to find a quiet and beautiful place. It is said that Dinghushan has been a famous tourist and religious site since the Tang Dynasty. After the Xinhai Revolution, Mr. Sun Yat-sen and his wife Song Qingling visited Dinghushan. They swam in the Feishui Pool, and the cliff has the inscription 'Sun Yat-sen's swimming place' written by Song Qingling. Now, according to the scenic area management, swimming is not allowed, otherwise, in summer, looking at the clear spring water, there is definitely an impulse to plunge into the pool.

Due to the village's unique geographical location, every evening, walking on the path next to the village, on one side are various fashionable homestays, small bars, coffee shops, and special restaurants; on the other side, the sun sets, enjoying the Star Lake scenery.
