Many thanks to Liu Jiaying, the hotel concierge and WeChat service ambassador, who contacted us by phone the moment we arrived at the hotel and led us through the VIP check-in channel. She also provided us with travel information and guidance, offering timely assistance that made our trip even more enjoyable! The hotel staff were a hit with both adults and children; we all slept soundly through the night, and the accommodation and sightseeing experience was superb!
Tickets are relatively expensive, but there's a 50% discount for birthdays. An annual pass is very cost-effective if you visit frequently. It's a great place for families. There are only two parade performances per day, so check the times in advance. It's best to enter from the North Gate in the morning. The panda triplets are not open before 1 PM, so going in the morning won't help, but you can still see the pandas.

This place is worth a visit. We bought the tickets online and we show them the online reservation screenshot in exchange an entry ticket. The whole zoo is big and it took us half a day to walk through. Most recommended to start from North gate so that you can take the Tram ride or cable ride and end your journey at the South Gate. Food shops are available along the way and best time to visit is weekday where there are lesser crowd
I tried out the free tickets that Ctrip Black Diamond VIP members receive every quarter. It rained a little on the day I went, which affected the experience a bit, but the good thing was that there weren't many people.

The night view was enchanting, and experiencing the two types of locks was fantastic. I arrived early, but the ticket inspector helped me change my ticket to an earlier departure if there were available seats. The fourteen bridges are all unique in design; pay special attention to the paintings and reliefs beneath the bridge surfaces.
What an amazing one-hour experience! Dylan assisted us all the way and check in on us every step of the way. He was very prompt, friendly and helpful! The breathtaking scenery was worth every minute and cent spent!

It’s an extremely nice scenic area in the heart of Guilin city. Quite crowded, but enjoyed the beauty of nature.
The user experience is fantastic! Visiting Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin is breathtaking. The hill connects seamlessly with the water, resembling an elephant drinking water—it's incredibly lifelike. The surrounding facilities are excellent, and transportation is convenient, making it suitable for family trips. Overall, Elephant Trunk Hill is a must-see in Guilin and highly recommended!

Duxiu Peak and Jingjiang Prince City Scenic Area, located in Xiufeng District, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, is a scenic tourist area rich in history and culture, covering an area of 283 acres.
Duxiu Peak, along with Diecai and Fubo Peaks, forms a triad of mountains, one of the main peaks of Guilin, known as the "Pillar of the Southern Sky" and historically called the First Peak of Guilin. Rising abruptly, its shape is like a knife-cut hex, surrounded by other mountains, standing proudly like an emperor. Climbing 306 steps leads to the summit, the best viewing platform for panoramic views of Guilin. Located 1000 meters north of Diecai and 500 meters east of Fubo, it has an altitude of 216 meters, rising 66 meters above the plain, measuring 120 meters long and 50 meters wide, covering an area of 0.61 hectares. Surrounded by mountains in the distance, it resembles a courtier paying homage, creating a regal atmosphere of "a solitary peak not serving the other mountains," laughing at the surrounding peaks, and is known as the "Head of the Mountains, King of the Mountains." The cliffside inscriptions are scattered like stars, displaying a rich tapestry of history. Among them is the famous line, "Guilin's scenery is the best under heaven," which originated here.
The intangible cultural heritage of the Jingjiang Prince's Palace is "Prince's Palace Rubbings," pioneered by Zhu Zuojing, the fifth Prince of Jingjiang. Using color rubbing techniques, it stems from the study of the palace's stone inscriptions and boasts a 600-year history. The most representative rubbing, featuring the Five Blessings, was featured on CCTV's Spring Festival Gala.
This is a highly recommended attraction. It boasts pristine, ancient scenery. A guide usually leads a group of about 10 people, providing explanations and commentary throughout the visit. It's excellent, allowing you to experience scenery and culture you wouldn't normally see. There are many authentic cultural relics reflecting Guilin's past and present. I suggest visiting if you have the time, but be prepared for the climb to the top for panoramic views of Guilin.

Visiting the Longji Rice Terraces in early November, it was drizzling. The rice was ripe, and the layers of golden rice fields, set against the backdrop of the misty rain, had a poetic beauty that made one marvel at the diligence and resilience of our Chinese ancestors.
1. Autumn deepens, the sunlight bathes the world in a warm glow, even worries seem gentler.
2. Autumn has arrived, and the air is filled with the aroma of roasted chestnuts and sweet potatoes, as warm as a familiar embrace.
3. Leaves fall gently in the autumn breeze, like letters from the past, telling tales of autumn's tenderness and tranquility.
1. Autumn is a poem, each fallen leaf a rhyming note, writing the story of time.
2. Autumn is nature's ink painting, its rich colors blending to create a serene and profound poetic atmosphere.
3. I wander through autumn's tapestry, encountering every golden hue, collecting the romance that belongs to autumn.

Window of the World is my top choice for Halloween this year! The atmosphere is just right without being over-the-top, and it's fun for taking photos and participating in interactive activities. The overall experience is smooth and without any disappointments. I'm already looking forward to next year!
The park is big and you probably need to spend at least half a day there. Worth visiting.
