Guilin | A millennium-old town accessible for free
A millennium-old town accessible for free. If you come to Guilin and prefer a quiet place over the bustling city center, just half an hour away, you can experience this tranquil ancient town—Daxu, established in the year 200 AD, reaching its peak during the Northern Song Dynasty.
🌳Wandering through the ancient town filled with history and culture, stepping on the bluestone paths, you'll find stinky tofu, grilled fish, cold noodles, and osmanthus cakes in the street shops. Not far away, at the dock by the Li River, you can watch the sunset, and with the town's ink-painting-like surroundings, it feels like walking into a painting step by step

I've been there many times, the local chili sauce is the most worth buying
Also, I don't really recommend the rice noodles, they are not as good as those in the city area

⭕About transportation
✅Is it better to go to Guilin first or Yangshuo first❓
This actually depends on what kind of major transportation you choose to come to Guilin, whether it is ✈️airplane or 🚄high-speed rail.
✅If you choose ✈️airplane, then 📍Guilin Airport is closer to Guilin city.
✅If it is high-speed rail, then the three high-speed rail stations in Guilin are closer to the city, while Yangshuo station is closer to Yangshuo.
.
🔥Avoid pits in the scenic spot
1⃣️Don't believe the scalpers outside the scenic area, don't buy scalper tickets, so as not to be pitted 🐮
2⃣️Ten-mile Gallery rent electric cars must compare three, there will definitely be a relatively cheap one 🛵
3⃣️Yulong River rafting peak season really a lot of people, must remember to make an appointment in advance, otherwise you have to wait a long time 🚣♀️
4⃣️Go to Yulong River to take a bamboo raft rafting, be sure to wear waterproof shoe covers, after all, the bamboo raft has to pass through the dam, will splash water 👡💦
5⃣️Don't believe anyone who says they will take pictures for you for free during the Yulong River rafting process, some will print them out and force you to buy them at a high price, be careful~ 📸

Gu Dong
Located in Gu Dong Village, Da Wei Town, Guilin, Guangxi, the waterfall is the only one in the country that can be climbed.
The suspension bridge is the longest one in Guangxi. Walking on the bridge gives you the feeling of strolling in the clouds.
Every late autumn, the forest here is dyed in layers, and the red maple leaves are continuous and the scenery is magnificent.
The once-a-year grand scene has arrived.

A mysterious natural landscape is waiting for you
26 kilometers out of Guilin city, you will reach the Lijiang - Ancient East Scenic Area. It is located to the west of the Lijiang River, north of Guilin, south of Yangshuo, and east of the Ocean Mountain Range. The location is excellent and the climate is pleasant.
There, a mysterious natural landscape is waiting for you...
The large forest is the green lung of the Lijiang River. It is fresh in spring, green in summer, dyed in autumn, and plain in winter, just like a poem or a painting. The most precious is the three thousand acres of pure red maple forest, colorful and romantic.
The gurgling stream is its brewed milk, ups and downs, or like a divine turtle drinking from a stream, a valley connected in love, like a scholar unfolding a scroll, a silk curtain being pulled, eight waterfalls and nine pools, each with its own charm.
Between the mountains and rivers, the spirit bell is nurtured and outstanding. The most amazing is the natural Guanyin, blessing one side, where there are immortals, there are spirits. The vicissitudes of the divine eye, the billion-year-old divine turtle, the three-life divine stone, the work of nature, adds flowers to the brocade.
