Checking in at Xiaogulangyu Island in Zhaoqing @ Yanqian Village

#November Destinations 2025 Yanqian Village in Zhaoqing City is named "Yanqian" (meaning "before the rocks") because it is bordered by Xinghu Lake to the south and west and Qixingyan (Seven Star Crags) to the north. Xinghu Lake is dotted with small, scattered peaks, a typical karst landscape, making a visit feel like admiring the scenery of Guilin. A winding road along the lake brings Yanqian Village closer to the lake, lined with cafes, bars, and restaurants, making it feel like a "Zhaoqing version of Gulangyu Island." Walking along Xinghu Avenue, you'll see an archway inscribed "Yanqian Baohuan Avenue," marking the entrance to Yanqian Village. Against the backdrop of the beautiful scenery of Qixingyan Lake, the village is especially enchanting at night. Walking through the village, you'll hear singers performing in music bars and the aroma of freshly prepared food wafting from the restaurants. It instantly transports you to West Street in Yangshuo or the Erhai Lake in Shuanglang, Dali. The vibrant night view makes Yanqian even more enchanting. Strolling along the long lakeside boardwalk, breathing in the fresh air, you can truly relax. Here you'll find local river delicacies, restaurants with international flair, lively bars, and quiet cafes. From sunset to late at night, every little shop is worth exploring. As one of Zhaoqing's most popular nighttime attractions, don't miss it! Detailed Address: Baohuan Avenue, Yanqian, Duanzhou District, Zhaoqing City
