Free appointment to check in the landmark Elephant Trunk Hill and then climb the route to the top of the back mountain to enjoy the scenery of Puxian Tower. It takes less than 2 hours to turn. It is mainly raining and avoiding the rain. After watching the navigation to Wuhu, you can take pictures of the Sun and Moon Twin Towers without buying tickets. The scenery is also very beautiful. Wild is good
Elephant Trunk Hill: Nature's gift of treasure, Guilin trip must punch in! Traveling to Guilin, Elephant Trunk Hill is definitely a stop not to be missed! This mountain, named after the mountain shape is like the giant elephant Linjiang drinking water, is simply the most proud masterpiece of nature. As soon as I stepped into the scenic spot, the lifelike Elephant Trunk Hill hit directly into the eye, which was really shocking! The mountains and the water of the Lijiang River are against each other, and the green mountains and green waters complement each other. Any shot is a beautiful blockbuster that can be used as wallpaper. Whether standing on the riverside or taking a bamboo raft to watch it up close, you can feel its unique charm. Every angle has a different beauty. It is really too much. The supporting facilities of the scenic spot are very complete, the road signs are clear, and the walk plank road along the riverside. Walking on it is comfortable and comfortable, and you can enjoy the scenery slowly. There are also attractions such as Weizhou Island, Sun and Moon Twin Towers in the surrounding area. It is not far from the distance. It is very convenient to connect and play in series. It is arranged full of all day. The staff are also very enthusiastic, not only patiently answering questions, but also telling tourists the legend of Elephant Trunk Hill in a vivid voice, so that the mountain has a soul and is full of humanistic charm. However, there are really many tourists on holidays. If you can, try to choose the working day, the experience will be better. When taking pictures, you may have to wait for the seat a little, but for this beautiful scenery, everything is worth it! In short, Elephant Trunk Hill is really great, full score recommendation 💯 You must come here when you come to Guilin!

5/1 Traveling to Guilin to play, they all said that they should not miss the night view of Guilin, just think that they must travel at night. The whole experience is really good, but the photo is a bit tired and requires some level and angle. There are interpreters throughout the whole process, and they speak color. The night view is really beautiful. The total time is almost 2 hours, and the price is good.
The two rivers and four lakes are still very worthwhile, the cruise is very good, and there is an explanation. However, it is best to visit the two rivers during the day and the four lakes after dark. We are just the opposite. The night view of the four lakes is beautiful, but the night view of the two rivers has nothing to see.

Longji Terraces, hidden in the dreamy pastoral 🌄 This trip to Longji Terraces really took me away! Every eye is a visual feast, every moment is full of comfort. 🌄 scenery: The scenery here is simply a must! Looking out from different observation decks, the terraces are like carefully carved by nature, stacked with layers and smooth lines, and the surrounding mountains and villages are against each other, so beautiful that it is suffocating. When I went there was the golden autumn, the golden rice ears swayed in the breeze, the sun was shining, the whole terraces were like layers of gold, and any shot was a blockbuster that could surprise the circle of friends. Transportation: The traffic is quite convenient. I took a direct train from Guilin city. About two hours drive. Although the mountain road is winding around, the scenery along the way is super beautiful and not boring at all. After arriving at the scenic spot, there is a sightseeing car transfer, directly to the vicinity of the stockade, there is no need to worry about getting lost. 🏡 Accommodation: I live in a homestay halfway up the mountain. I open the window and the terraces. I wake up in the morning in the birdsong and sunshine. In the evening, I have a drink with the sunset and breeze. This kind of life is too pleasant! The room is clean and tidy, the facilities are also very complete, the boss and his family are very enthusiastic, recommended a lot of fun places and delicious food to me, just like at home, comfortable and warm 🥰 🍜 Food: the food here is also very special! Bamboo rice with bamboo fragrance, soft and sweet; The bamboo tube chicken is fresh and juicy, and the delicious chicken and the elegant bamboo are perfectly integrated. There are also local bacon and oil tea, each mouthful is a strong fireworks, which makes people feel endless. 🎈 Play experience: During the day, I shuttled between the fields of the terraced fields and felt this spectacular scenery up close. Occasionally, I could see the local villagers working, especially with a life atmosphere. In the evening, I boarded the observation deck to watch the sunset. The whole world was dyed warm orange. The shocking beauty was really indescribable. At night, I lay in the yard to watch the stars and listen to the insects. I felt that all my troubles had been thrown out of the clouds. Longji Terraces are really a super treasure place, whether it is natural scenery or humanistic experience is impeccable. I really recommend everyone to come here to feel it, I believe you will love it! 💕 #Longji Terraces #Travel Raiders #Natural Scenery #Healing Travel
As long as you enter the scenic area, you must buy a ticket, regardless of whether you stay in the homestay in the terraced fields or not. You can stay for a few more days after entering, but due to time constraints, I stayed for one night and left. This season is the off-season, when the green just started, the scenery is not so amazing, but it is less crowded and less noisy.

The cruise itself is great! But to get to the cruise you have to wait for around 2hrs after pick up to get there and on the bus they sell you things. The VIP package with breakfast is definitely not worth it. It’s a scam I’m afraid!
It's pretty good, the scenery and the boat are nice. It's worth coming. I think the 30-yuan meal is okay. It's just right for you to eat when you are tired standing on the deck. If you don't eat at all, the journey is too long and you will be very hungry.

[Paragraph 1] Hey, friends! Today I will take you to visit the Lijiang River in Guilin and feel the unique charm there! 🌊 [Paragraph 2] Imagine you sit on a bamboo raft and have a panoramic view of the green mountains and green waters on both sides of the bank, as if you have entered a beautiful picture. 🎨 [Paragraph 3] The water in the Lijiang River is crystal clear, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds and the ancient fishing boats. At that moment, you will forget all your troubles. 🌈 [Paragraph 4] Don't forget, life is a trip, Guilin Lijiang is waiting for you to find it! 👣 #Guilin Lijiang #Travel Diary #Discover Beautiful
The surface of the Guilin River under the night is like a colorful painting. Boarding the cruise ship, the lights on both sides of the river light up one after another, and the sparkling waves and bright lights interweave, instantly pulling people into a dreamland.
The Sun and Moon Towers are particularly eye-catching in the night. The golden Sun Tower and the silver Moon Tower complement each other. The lights on the towers are reflected on the river surface, swaying with the waves, as if the palace in the sky has fallen into the world. The bridges along the river have their own characteristics, some are simple and elegant, some are modern and smart, and the changing light and shadow show their unique charm. The mountains in the distance are hazy, and the lights on the river are virtual and real. The mountains, rivers and cities are integrated, outlining a poetic outline.
As the boat sails on the river, the tour guide's vivid city stories come to my ears, and the cultural heritage and beautiful night view complement each other. In a short journey, the beauty of nature and the humanistic customs blend together, making people intoxicated and lingering. It is a visual feast that cannot be missed.

The scenery is beautiful and the scenery is pleasant. 2.5 The hiking trip of about an hour is just right and not tired. But it is not very convenient to go from the city. I arrived smoothly by bus and Didi. At the same time, there is no free boiling water in the visitor center, which is inconvenient.
Still very beautiful, especially a light rainy morning. Ximen is more convenient, but Ximen will officially open at 8:30~ Walking down a big circle all the way, about 5 kilometers~ If you go in, it will be about 8 kilometers. It is a bit hard~ Finally, it will come out from the south gate~

This is already the fourth Eternal Love series of punch cards. From the beginning of the first Songcheng, I am addicted. Basically, as long as the city where I live has the Eternal Love, it is a must-see. Guilin is also very good, and the city characteristics are also very sufficient.
Come to Guangxi for tourism! First of all, I booked a double ticket in advance, 600 yuan, the location is very good, but after I arrived in Yangshuo, I found that 170-200 one person can get the same ticket. Trip.com Online can not be refunded. It feels like being treated as a Japanese.

One of the Five Sacred Mountains, Nanyue Hengshan, is one of the most worth climbing mountains. It has beautiful scenery and a beautiful environment. It has a strong aura and a good atmosphere. It is worth pondering. Carefully experience and savor the continuous mountains and the powerful aura flowing.
It's very high, and it's very tiring to climb manually. If you want to take a bus, you need to queue up in advance, and it takes two or three hours to get on the bus. It's not recommended to go on holidays, and the experience is not good.
The overall scenery is OK, just average, not as beautiful as Zhangjiajie.
The road slope is very steep, dangerous! Cars come and go, dangerous!

Guizhou is really a treasure place for tourism. After the May 1st tour with the group, I chose to rest here. I stayed for two days and wandered slowly. I experienced different scenery on rainy and sunny days. I ate local lo-wei and special cuisine. It was very worth it!
Come to Zhaoxing Dong Village and feel the original ecological Yi style! Walk on the bluestone road, the hanging building group is super suitable for taking pictures and punching in. Be sure to try the fish in sour soup, hot and sour appetizer, and want to eat a bowl after eating! Don't miss the Yi song performance at night, the sound of the sky makes your ears pregnant. Remember to bring a coat, the temperature difference in the mountains is big in the morning and evening, be careful to freeze into popsicles ～
