Opening hours: 08:00-18:00 (admission ends at 17:30)
Anonymous user:“It was really worth it today. I bought a package ticket. If you're under 1.2 meters tall, you get half the price. It's a great value. Plus, it's Tuesday, so it wasn't crowded. There are plenty of shops inside, and the prices are reasonable. Parking at the west gate is convenient and affordable, only 10 yuan for 6 hours.”

Anonymous user:“A great scenic spot👍👍👍👍👍👍
It integrates natural and cultural landscapes. The karst peaks are embedded in the lake. There are mountains and water. The caves, underground rivers, pavilions, and cliff carvings are all worth appreciating and savoring.”

Anonymous user:“The water in Dinghushan is really worth it! Although it is midsummer, you can still feel the coolness when walking beside the waterfall stream! Especially stepping barefoot in the stream, how comfortable it is! Personally, I feel that the scenery experience of Dinghushan is better than that of Qixingyan.”

乡趣:“The area is not large, but it is full of fun! The flamingos are brightly colored, and the red-crowned cranes are graceful! Although the lake is not as wide as the Xingyan cruise route, the close-up view of the Heron Island and the reclining Buddha are beautiful!”

静吟我歌:“This is a rare well-preserved ancient city wall in China, and is currently a national key protected building. There are more than 40 types of bricks on the wall, all of which were repaired in different eras. Zui Piyun Tower is the highest point of the city wall, and you can overlook the ruins enclosed by the city wall and the urban area of Zhaoqing from the tower.”

魔女锦鲤:“Highlights and Features: Yankeng Ziyun Valley is located in Lanke Mountain, southeast of Dinghu District, Zhaoqing City, in the Xijiang Lingyang Gorge Provincial Nature Reserve, and is a national AAA-level tourist attraction. Ziyun Valley is a beautiful place with clear water and mountains. It is an important part of Zhaoqing's "Golden Triangle Tourist Area" composed of Qixingyan, Dinghu Mountain and "Lanke Mountain Lingyang Gorge". Ziyun Valley is located in the pit mouth of Dinghu District, Zhaoqing City, so the streams here are very clear, surrounded by green water in the mountains, like a natural picture.
Ziyun Valley is the birthplace of Duan Inkstone. The best quality Duan Inkstones in China are all from the old pit, pit, and mazi pit in Ziyun Valley. These three famous pits cannot be missed.
You need to take a ferry to enter Ziyun Valley. If you drive by yourself, you can park your car at the pier and then buy a ticket and wait for the ferry. Entering the scenic area is like returning to nature, with beautiful natural scenery and breathing fresh oxygen in the mountains and forests. The temperature here is a few degrees lower than that in the city, and it is very cool in summer. There is a natural landscape park at the foot of the mountain, where you can play in the water after changing into a swimsuit. If you want to explore, you can go further up the mountain. The stream water is crystal clear. You can explore the stream in the mountains, bathe in the mountain springs, and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Opening hours: Monday to Friday 08:30-17:30 (latest admission 16:00) Saturday to Sunday 08:00-18:00 (latest admission 16:00)
The last return time of the scenic area ferry: Monday to Friday afternoon 17:30, Saturday, Sunday, statutory holidays afternoon 18:00
Ticket price: Adults: 60 yuan, children & seniors: 30 yuan (including round-trip ferry fee)”

Above the middle door is the Chinese characters "Qixingyan" written by Marshal Zhu De. The archway square is designed with red, green and sky blue as the main colors, symbolizing enthusiasm and cheerfulness.”

星空花园民宿贞姐:“If you like a slow life, you must stay in Yanqian for a few days. It is very convenient for eating, staying and playing here. It has a unique geographical location. There is a bar street outside the door, and the east gate of Qixingyan is 500 meters away. This is the Starry Sky Garden Meteor B&B where I stayed last time.”

精灵背包游侠:“I stayed at the Regent Hotel, a river view hotel on the bank of Xijiang River again. The balcony had a beautiful view of the mountains and rivers. Although it was the cheapest room without a river view, the side room actually had a bit of a river view, and I could see the new Xijiang Bridge. At the same time, I could see the panoramic view of Gaoyao’s mountains, ancient towers and the old city. To be honest, it was even richer than the pure river view from the front!”Where to stay
