Weizhou Island, a charming secret on China's young volcanic island! Chase coral reef fish in the glassy sea and watch the sunset over the spectacular volcanic lava fields. Enjoy a few days of slow living on an electric scooter. Spring and autumn are the perfect time to visit, avoiding the crowds and enjoying the ocean breeze!
If you have never been to the island, you can go there. The scenery is beautiful, but the route is too roundabout. On a straight road, when riding the battery, the navigation says east, west, and south.

The old Ferrari is there.
Great!
The electric carts are convenient, but when there aren't many people, it's perfectly fine to drive yourself. The scenic area should allow guests to drive in, and then use the scenic area car when there are more people.
The waterfall is very spectacular. You can enjoy the beauty of the waterfall from different angles in the scenic area. It is highly recommended. The scenic area also has preferential policies for tourists from Guangdong, Guizhou, Yunnan and other provinces. The ticket price is only 19.9, so it is very cost-effective.

The scenic area is large and the scenery is pleasant, but for tourists from other places who are visiting for the first time, the sightseeing bus is not very convenient. There are clearly marked parking places but you have to keep waving at them.
The attractions are nice, but Nanning is too hot.
It's late September, and the heat is still so high, which makes the outdoor park experience less enjoyable.
Also, there are so many electric car lines, it's a bit confusing.

This Guilin landmark is perfect for photo opportunities. Feel free to take your own photos. If you require paid photography within the scenic area, be sure to inquire in advance about the price and whether the original digital film is included. Also, inquire about the fees for bamboo rafts, cormorants, and clothing. There are also bamboo raft cruises, but the experience is average. If you're planning to go on the Yulong River raft, you can skip this option entirely.
When I went to Guilin, I did some research and found that the attractions in the city are relatively concentrated, so I booked a hotel near Vientiane City. It's quite close to the Elephant Trunk Hill scenic area, where you can visit Elephant Trunk Hill, the Sun and Moon Pagodas, East and West Alleys, Jingjiang Palace, and more. Elephant Trunk Hill Park is free, but reservations are required. Since it was summer vacation, there were a lot of people, but I was still pleasantly surprised to see the Elephant Trunk Hill I'd seen in textbooks. It felt like I was there. You can hire a photographer to take photos with you; the price is quite reasonable at 30 yuan. Of course, a photo opportunity is a must when visiting Guilin.

The surprise of this trip started with staying at this hotel! 🫶This stay was an absolute blast! From getting off the bus to checking out, the front desk lady was incredibly attentive. Check-in took just a minute, and she even helped carry our luggage to our room. The room was incredibly clean, and the bedding felt soft, like sinking into a cloud. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, so the hot water came quickly and the pressure was consistent, so I didn't experience fluctuating temperatures while showering. The dining area was also very comfortable, with good lighting and spacious tables and chairs, so it didn't feel crowded. The staff promptly cleared away empty plates, and the tables were always clean. The service was also very friendly, even proactively asking if we needed coffee. ☕
The scenery was breathtaking, and our room had a direct view of Fubo Mountain and the Li River. My friend even asked if I was staying inside the park. It was so refreshing. Free fruit, lemonade, and snacks were available all day on the first floor. Such thoughtful attention to detail. I would recommend this hotel to my friends and would definitely stay here with my kids next time. I'd definitely choose this place. I hope it continues to do better. It would be perfect if the rooftop outdoor swimming pool was bigger, hahahaha, thank you for giving me a wonderful first day of traveling in Guilin☺️
This trip was a joyful and enjoyable one. Every scenic spot from Guilin to Yangshuo was breathtakingly beautiful, with mountains and rivers interspersed with lush greenery. It was truly stunning. Our driver, Master Min, was incredibly calm and skilled, courteous, and courteous. He provided detailed explanations along the way and provided excellent service. Thank you so much, Master Min, for your hard work! I'd also like to thank all the customer service and supervisors at Ctrip for their hard work. Thank you so much! 😎

Tour guide No. 3 was very enthusiastic. Although the explanation was similar, his personal style was better. There was some shopping and sales during the whole process, but not much. It was well integrated with the scene. Overall, it was worth it! (Want a cooler day!)
The first attraction in Guilin during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the ticket price is 100 yuan with the guided tour. The guide is also very serious. In addition to the guided tour, there are many interactive experience parts, which makes you spend your money happily. This is a very different experience. I wrote the word "Fu", experienced the exam, and saw the origin of the saying "Guilin landscape is the best under heaven". I really recommend it.

It was okay. I thought we'd be picked up at the hotel, but we were told to walk to a nearby meeting point. We ended up walking there, which was a bit disappointing. Then, the tour guide was selling local specialties along the way, and I couldn't resist buying any. He also wanted us to upgrade our cabin for a little extra money per person, but the scenery was pretty much the same. Once we left the port, we could go up to the second-floor deck to enjoy the view without any restrictions. Personally, I felt the upgrade wasn't worth much. We arrived at Yangshuo Longtoushan Port around 1:30 p.m. We had to eat lunch on the boat, so it would be best if we could bring our own. The boxed lunch on board was 30 yuan, and the snacks were outrageously expensive.
I'm from Guilin and was meeting up with old friends to take them on a Li River cruise. I originally wanted to buy tickets on the official website, but they didn't distinguish between upper and lower cabins, requiring separate tickets for transportation to the pier. After careful consideration and comparison, I chose Ctrip. After comparing the service details, I chose boat number 4 (the boat numbers represent different agencies; after booking, I learned that number 4 was for the Youth Travel Agency). I chose boat number 4 because it offers a free refund the day before departure and doesn't require me to pick up the tickets myself. The experience was excellent. Our guide, Xiao Pan, was friendly and attentive at the pier. The bus picked us up right outside the hotel, and the local specialty sales along the way were pleasant. My friend was delighted to find gifts for her family. After arriving at the pier, Xiao Pan helped me pick up the tickets, saving me the trouble of heading straight to the pier. The three-star boat was quite comfortable. As for the Li River scenery, it's undeniable—definitely worth a visit!

A cruise on the Li River in Guilin is worth a visit. Enjoy the scenery along the Li River from a cruise ship. The gentle breeze between the mountains and rivers, the bright sunshine, the fleet of cruise ships, and the bamboo rafts under the sun umbrellas form a beautiful and moving picture on the Li River... Guilin's landscape is the best in the world.
excellent cruise. they have snacks whose quality could be improved.

1. The live performance is breathtaking, with the landscape as the backdrop for a legendary performance. Immerse yourself in Guilin's thousand-year story in a flash.
2. The stunning song and dance blend beautifully with the landscape, and the dazzling light and shadows showcase the charm of Guilin's ancient culture.
3. The moving plot and stunning stage performances, using song and dance to tell the story of Guilin's past, make this performance an unforgettable experience.
This one performance offset all the previous complaints about the heat, the crowds, and the difficulty in getting a taxi. The performance was great and well worth the ticket price. There are many more performances in the park where you can take photos and check in.

Because of the water level of the Li River, the performance was changed. But it was my first time watching it, so I didn't know what was different. It started at 8 o'clock and ended around 9:10. I can only say it was okay. I personally think it was not as good as Guilin Eternal Love. Audiences left one after another before it ended. (Bring mosquito repellent spray and fans, it's stuffy and there are many mosquitoes outdoors at night)
"Impression of Liu Sanjie" is a large-scale Guilin landscape live performance. "Impression of Liu Sanjie" is the core project of China Lijiang Landscape Theater. It is the first "landscape live performance" in China and the first work in the Impression series of tour guide Zhang Yimou.
