Sanmenhai

I declare!! Guangxi can be enshrined as divine!!! Guangxi is really an underestimated place, every spot here is no less than "Guilin". Having visited so many provinces in China, Guangxi is definitely in my top three! 1. Sanmenhai (p1) The awe that Sanmenhai brings to me is indescribable, when the weather is good, the water glows!! There is a magical cave overhead, isn't this the real "Ghost Blows Out the Light"? 2. Detian Waterfall (p2-p3) It turns out this is the calendar I saw when I was a child. In my memory, waterfalls should look like Detian Waterfall, but I really haven't seen such a beautiful waterfall in my daily life. I haven't been to Guangxi. I know the waterfall on the calendar is right here! 3. Haokun Lake (p4) Only by hiking and overlooking Haokun Lake can you see such beautiful scenery. Isn't this Guangxi's "Nam Co"? Shocking! You must walk to the top of the mountain, the scenery of Haokun Lake will tell you the answer. 4. Qinglong Lake (p5) This should be an abandoned attraction, so very few people come here, but it can be said to be Guangxi's Xinjiang, streams, grasslands, cattle, horses, milk water, and ducks, lying on the lawn and letting yourself relax. 5. Mingshi Pastoral (p6) The essence of Mingshi countryside lies in quietly enjoying the elegance of the fields here. There are no magnificent landscapes, but it will definitely relax you, especially the morning jog, with some fog it's like a fairyland. 6. Tongling Grand Canyon (p7p8p9) After visiting Detian Waterfall, I thought I would not be shocked by the beauty of waterfalls again. Unexpectedly, Tongling Grand Canyon brought me surprises that go far beyond that. Super cinematic! Social Drilling (p10) Right next to Sanmenhai, a few minutes' drive away. This is a natural cave, very spectacular. Inside there are many stones of different shapes. Don't miss it when you come to Sanmenhai, it's too magical 8. Dongyu Bay (p11p12) The filming location of "The Journey of Flower", previously known as Anping Xianhe, the whole scenic area is toured by boat, there will be an island in the middle, there is a sense of memory of "The Peach Blossom Spring", suddenly becoming bright and open Qingxiu Mountain (p13p14) Although Qingxiu Mountain is only in the urban area of Nanning, please promise me to leave a day for it, okay? The garden planning with various plants competing for beauty is also particularly beautiful. We need strategies and positioning. From the strategies on my homepage, we can find the Guangxi line. We have already made the strategy: Haokun Lake hiking Detian Waterfall Tongling Grand Canyon Mingshi Pastoral Nanning Qingxiu Mountain Dongyu Bay Longkara Qinglong Lake

Sanmenhai has developed seven stringed karst doline groups, which is a hidden attraction. It is not a 'blue hole' but is more impressive than a 'blue hole', with a blue-green color that is more astonishing than the sea. This place is acclaimed as a fairyland fallen to earth by millions of fans and travel blogger Fang Qi. Taking a boat into the sinkhole, traveling through the wonderful caves, there is the excitement of exploring a secret realm as well as the amazement of being close to the blue water. When the boat exits the cave, there is a delightful surprise of a different world.

The mysterious underground river resources, the wonderful and magnificent karst lake, karst springs, large cave groups, sinkhole groups, skylight groups, natural bridges and all other karst landform features are displayed in the Three Gates Sea scenic area, constituting a veritable karst world geological park.

Sanmenhai is like a mischievous treasure💎, its management is so chaotic that it can give you a headache🤣, but its beauty is so striking that it leaves you speechless, simply indescribable!💗 The highlight of my trip to Guangxi was definitely Sanmenhai, with a voice in my heart constantly urging me: You must see it for yourself!🌊 🔘 Location Found: Sanmenhai Scenic Area 🎫 Admission Ticket: 98 yuan (but buying a ticket doesn't guarantee entry) 🅿 Parking Difficulty: The scenic area is small, so you can only park on the side or in a small parking lot at a villager's house (20 yuan fee) 🕐 Visiting Time: About 50 minutes, including a boat ride with a professional guide The best time to visit is on a sunny day, when the water sparkles!✨ 🍴 Must-try Food: There's a market nearby, where an auntie's fried noodles and fried rice are super delicious!😋 Only 12 yuan! If you need a photo, DM me! 💥💥💥 Key Tips: ✔️ The site only admits 2000 people per day, and won't accept more once that number is exceeded. So it's best to go in the morning to avoid finding out in the afternoon that it's 'fully booked' and making a wasted trip. ✔️ Even with a ticket, you have to wait for your number to be called before you can enter, which usually takes about an hour. Remember to get your number because the area is quite disorganized, and they often forget to issue numbers, causing tourists to crowd together in confusion. ✔️ How to save time❓ After getting your number, ask the caller approximately how long it will be until your turn, then use that time to take a stroll through the nearby Shechong Cave. It's only a seven to eight-minute drive from the scenic area. Don't set your expectations too high, but it's definitely worth a look! Don't waste time, go experience it! ✔️ Try to line up at the front when boarding the boat, so you can capture the best views when getting on. When it's your turn, you can ask the people behind to wait a moment until you can be the first to board. This way, you can avoid having your view blocked and take even more beautiful photos!😆 ❤️ If you need free parking🅿, DM Yeye, and I will tell you the exact location and show you pictures. Next up, Yeye will share more tips about Guangxi's Shechong Cave and Qinglong Lake, looking forward to your likes and support~ 🌟

| It seems like I had a brief dream of mountains and rivers. Official sale 98 This place is really beautiful. The original picture is unfiltered and directly shows the beauty. Sitting on a small boat, leisurely looking at the scenery, the green that the camera can't capture is really worth it. We heard from the small supermarket where we bought water that there are preferential prices for local residents. We bought tickets from residents for 80/person. It's cheaper than buying online or at the scenic spot. If you have a student ID, it's even more preferential. The water is really green, blue and beautiful. You have to sit on the boat for the whole journey and can't get off. The small boat has six seats. We four people directly chartered a boat to set off, so it's more free to take pictures. When there are not many people, you should not have to wait for a full seat to set off directly~
