Weizhou Island is very beautiful. The color of the sea water is different from that of Golden Beach and Silver Beach. It is quite orderly to take a boat to the island, and the hotel also provides pick-up and drop-off. You can rent a car to travel around the island, and it is very convenient for food, accommodation and transportation. In summer, you should do a good job of sun protection. Although it is hot under the sun, it is very photogenic.
I came to Weizhou Island for the second time. It is a small island suitable for lying down. It is suitable for eating seafood in April. It is suitable for taking children to swim at the beach in July and August. Shiluokou Beach is very beautiful and it is convenient to live nearby. Highly recommended!

Qingxiu Mountain is truly worth the price of admission, with its lush greenery. If you weren't visiting in July or August, it would have been a truly relaxing experience. The scenic area is vast, and you can't explore it all in a single day, so you can only choose to visit the attractions you like. There are many one-way sightseeing buses connecting the area, but you'll need to purchase a ticket to get off and then board. This fee may be higher than the entrance fee, depending on the attractions you choose. Overall, it's a great experience and worth visiting.
Qingxiu Mountain is very nice. It's worth going. The ticket price is not expensive. The place inside is very large. And the scenery is different every season. The flowers bloom in different seasons. It should be different every month. But this ticket is generally a one-time ticket. If you buy a ticket directly at the local place, that ticket is for two or three days. You can enter and exit unlimited times. This one is a one-time ticket, which is a bit bad.

A night tour of Guilin's two rivers and four lakes is definitely a highlight of city tourism! Take a boat to travel between the lakes and mountains, with the lush peaks on both sides reflected in the water, and the exquisite bridges and bright lights interweaving like a dream. The lock lifting is novel and interesting, and the night view of the twin towers is gorgeous and eye-catching. In one trip, you can appreciate the poetry and essence of Guilin's mountains and rivers, just like walking through a flowing ink painting, which is beautiful and highly recommended!
Guilin Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area is a landmark attraction in the center of Guilin. It consists of the Li River, Taohua River, Rong Lake, Shan Lake, Gui Lake and Mulong Lake. It is known as the "Venice of China". It combines natural landscapes with cultural landscapes. It is an excellent place to experience the artistic conception of Guilin "thousands of mountains surround the wild, and one water embraces the city".
Highlights
1. Best for night tours: The lights are bright at night, and the Sun and Moon Towers (Golden Tower and Silver Tower) are reflected on the lake, like a fairyland. The cruise ship passes through 19 bridges of different styles, such as the Glass Bridge and the Ancient Banyan Bridge, which are very visually impactful.
2. Water performances: Folk performances such as osprey fishing and ethnic songs and dances add fun. Some cruise ships are equipped with tour guides to explain the historical background in depth.
3. Lock experience: Due to the water level difference, the cruise ship needs to pass through the ship lift or lock, which is similar to the "Mini Three Gorges", novel and interesting.
4. Walking tour: The free lakeside trail is suitable for slow walking. The glass bridge of Rong Lake and the Sun and Moon Twin Towers of Shan Lake are recommended, especially for photography enthusiasts.

The Elephant Trunk Hill is really worthy of its reputation! The shape of the elephant drinking water is amazing, and the texture of the rock is super textured when you look at it up close. The Li River surrounds the mountain, and when you take a bamboo raft past the Elephant Trunk Cave, the mountains and water complement each other like a poem and a painting. The view from the top of the mountain is wide, and you can overlook the scenery of the whole city. It is worth a visit to take photos~
Check in at Elephant Trunk Hill. It is very convenient to make an appointment on Ctrip. The scenic area is crowded, but orderly and not crowded. Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, and it is indeed well-deserved. I like the atmosphere here that makes people linger, and I like the scenery here that makes people intoxicated.

You have to enter the Duxiuwangcheng scenic area from the main gate. The ticket includes a tour guide. If you accidentally enter from the back door, you have to wait for the free shuttle bus to take you back to the main gate! The tour guide will take you to explain the various histories of Duxiuwangcheng and Guilin bit by bit. It is very informative. The famous saying "Guilin's landscapes are the best in the world" is engraved on Duxiu Peak. There is also an immersive experience, which is very good. Smart fare! It's a pity that the waiting time for the shuttle bus is a bit long. When the trip is over, the coffee shop will be closed, so you can only take it away!
The attraction is equipped with a tour guide to fully understand every wonderful point of the scenic spot, and know the origin of "Guilin landscape is the best in the world". If the tickets are cheaper, it is more worth playing!

The scenery is indeed beautiful. The terraced fields and green hills complement each other, and the shadows of the white clouds make the green hills and rice fields appear bright and dark. Staying in a B&B on the top of the mountain, I was lucky enough to see the fireworks at night. Sitting on the small balcony and enjoying the evening breeze with my loved one was a very peaceful and romantic experience.
The terraced fields are large in scale, covering an area of 66 square kilometers, including three major scenic areas: Jinkeng Dazhai Red Yao Terraces, Ping'an Zhuang Terraces, and Longji Ancient Zhuang Village Terraces. They have unique landscapes such as Seven Stars with the Moon and Nine Dragons and Five Tigers. Its scenery varies with each season: spring is like a mirror, summer is green, autumn is golden, and winter is like ink and wash painting, attracting many tourists and photography enthusiasts.

The service on board was excellent, with the waiter constantly helping to collect the fruit plates. The scenery on board was breathtaking, well worth the price of admission, and I didn't have to check in separately. The only problem was that it was difficult to get a taxi upon arrival, and I couldn't get one without a significant surcharge. The tour facilities were also lacking.
I spent more than 200 yuan to see the reflection of the yellow cloth worth 20 yuan. I feel that the more than 2,000 yuan I spent on this trip to Guilin has appreciated. Very good. I recommend everyone to choose the March 3 cruise (18th), which is the style of Zhuang Township.

Cruise & raft on Li River

Family, you must visit the Li River when you come to Guilin! This trip is really worth it!
From the moment I stepped on the cruise ship, I was shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of me. The river water is clear and green, like a ribbon winding between the mountains with strange peaks. During the boat, every turn is a brand new landscape painting, and I really experienced the beauty of "people swimming in the painting".
The most impressive thing on the way was the Nine Horses Painting Mountain. The tour guide said that people who can see nine horses are very lucky. My eyes were dazzled and I could only barely find a few horses. It was so interesting. There is also a 20-yuan RMB background shooting location. When I saw it with my own eyes, I couldn't help but take out the banknotes to compare and take pictures, and the sense of accomplishment was full.
The cruise service is also very considerate, the staff is warm and thoughtful, and they will introduce the attractions in detail. The only shortcoming is that there are a lot of tourists on holidays, and you have to seize the opportunity to take pictures. However, this has not affected my love for the Li River at all. It would be a great pity to come to Guilin and not visit the Li River. I strongly recommend it to everyone!

It's good to bring children to play, and there are many activities arranged in the whole scenic area. However, there are a few projects that are not allowed for people under 1.4 meters. Also, don't book tickets through Ctrip. Not only are the prices high, but they also find scalpers, which is equivalent to subcontracting layers of seats. The seats arranged are at the edge, and the performance is very bad.

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.
