Qinzhou, a very low-key city in Guangxi

There is a city in Guangxi 120 kilometers away from Nanning, with beautiful scenery and a long history, but many people have never heard of it. Not only Beihai in Guangxi, but also Qinzhou, which has a low presence but beautiful scenery and a long history. Speaking of the coastal cities in Guangxi, many people only know about Beihai. In fact, in the Beibu Gulf area of Guangxi, there is also a coastal city only 120 kilometers away from the capital Nanning, with beautiful scenery and a long history, but many people have never heard of it. This city is called Qinzhou, also known as Anzhou in ancient times. It was under the jurisdiction of Xiangjun during the Qin Dynasty, belonged to the Nanyue Kingdom in the early Han Dynasty, and was renamed Qinzhou during the Sui Dynasty, which has been used to this day. Qinzhou is located on the southern coast of Guangxi, south of Qinzhou Bay, north of Nanning City, east of Beihai City and Yulin City, and west of Fangchenggang City, with a coastline of 562.64 kilometers. Qinzhou is not only historic, but also has beautiful coastal scenery. There are attractions such as Sanniang Bay, Xili Bay, Longmen Port, Qinzhou Port, Bazhaigou, Qinzhou Old Street, and Liu Yongfu's former residence. It is a city that has not been overdeveloped and is suitable for friends who like niche attractions. The most famous attraction in Qinzhou is Sanniang Bay, which is known as the hometown of Chinese white dolphins, with a relatively rare number of white dolphins in the world. Many people come to Sanniang Bay just to see the white dolphins. They live in the middle of the sea and need to take a boat to see them. The best viewing season is April-May and July-October each year. As long as the weather is clear and calm, you can see them. If you are lucky, you can see hundreds of white and pink dolphins swimming around at the same time. If you like cultural relics and ancient buildings, you might as well go to Qinzhou Old Street. Walking into here is like walking into Beijing Road and Shangxiajiu in Guangzhou. They are all arcade buildings with signs on both sides, which are very suitable for taking retro photos like Hong Kong movies. Qinzhou Old Street also has Liu Yongfu's former residence "Sanxuan Hall", which is the most magnificent and complete Qing Dynasty building group in Qinzhou, covering an area of more than 22,700 square meters, with 119 large and small buildings. Liu Yongfu was a patriotic general in the late Qing Dynasty. He made numerous military exploits in the Franco-Vietnamese War, so he was named Sanxuan Tidu by the Vietnamese king, and his former residence was named after this. Friends who like niche attractions can go to Longmen Port Town, which even many locals in Guangxi don't know about. Longmen Port Town borders Fangchenggang and is a small fishing village by the sea. There are many breeding bases by the sea, and the view from the air is very spectacular. At present, the transportation to Longmen Port Town is relatively inconvenient, but a bridge connecting Fangchenggang is currently under construction. After completion, the time to Longmen Port Town can be halved. If you come to Qinzhou in summer, you can go to Bazhaigou to escape the heat. Many people may think of Jiuzhaigou when they see this name. Some people say that it is only one less than Jiuzhaigou. The trees along the way are shaded, the water is gurgling, and even in the hot summer, it feels very cool. It is a summer resort in Qinzhou. In addition, Xili Bay is also a free beach that locals in Qinzhou like to go to. You can camp and swim on the beach, with blue sea and sky and coconut groves, which is very comfortable and cozy. Not only is the scenery in Qinzhou beautiful, but the seafood is also delicious and cheap. When you come to Qinzhou, you must try it. If you are not in a hurry, you can buy seafood at the port or market and then process it at the restaurant. This kind of ingredients is the freshest. There are not only Beihai in the coastal cities of Guangxi. If you like niche attractions, you can go to Qinzhou next time.
