Located on the Guichun River on the China-Vietnam border in Detian Village, Shuolong Town, Daxin County, Chongzuo City, Guangxi Province, this waterfall connects with Ban Gioc Waterfall in Vietnam, forming one of Asia's premier transnational waterfall clusters. The waterfall is over 200 meters wide, with a drop of over 70 meters, cascading in three tiers. Year-round, it creates a powerful and awe-inspiring spectacle of mist rising into the air. The scenic area is a national 5A-level attraction with comprehensive facilities, making it ideal for exploring the natural beauty and cultural heritage of this border region.

The scenery is beautiful. Tickets for Route B bamboo rafts purchased on Ctrip one day in advance cost 135 yuan, while tickets for Route B on the day of the rafting cost 145 yuan. Tickets for Route A cost 120 yuan, and Route B costs 160 yuan if purchased on-site.

Dongnayu Bay is definitely worth a visit. It's easily accessible by car or public transport. The Longbitan Waterfall Group here is stunning, with a considerable width and powerful flow. It's not crowded, allowing you to leisurely enjoy the natural scenery, stroll along the bay, feel the sea breeze on your face, and experience a wealth of unique experiences. It's a perfect place to relax, reconnect with nature, and unwind.

Huashan Rock Paintings—China's 49th World Cultural Heritage site and the first rock painting heritage site in my country, as well as Guangxi's first World Heritage site—have existed for over 2000 years. Their vibrant colors make them a true marvel. Regarding the non-driving journey from Chongzuo to Huashan Rock Paintings: We bought bus tickets on Ctrip for 35 RMB per person. The bus departed from Chongzuo International Distribution Center (not the one near the South Station) at 7:50 AM. Perhaps due to fewer people, they used 11-seater buses, and it took about 40 minutes to reach the visitor center. We had plenty of time, just in time to catch the first boat, but we chose to spend some time at the visitor center, exploring the exhibition halls and the surrounding environment, which was very beautiful. We also enjoyed Zhuang ethnic song and dance performances and a Tianqin (a traditional stringed instrument) performance in front of the boat, all free of charge. The rock paintings themselves are free, but you need to take a boat to see them, which costs 90 RMB per person. We chose the 10:30 AM boat, and the scenic area provides shuttle service to the pier. The round trip takes 2 hours, with 1 hour spent viewing the paintings (there is a guide on board who leads the tour and provides explanations along the way). After returning from the boat at 1:30, I learned that there is a bullet train from Ningming East to Chongzuo at 15:47, which costs 10 yuan for 10 minutes. The scenic area also has a free shuttle bus to Ningming East at 14:30 (about 30 minutes). There are enough buffer times at each time, which is suitable for leisurely strolling around.

There were very few people. I saw some students observing and recording the white-headed langurs, which felt a bit like an educational trip. The entire scenic area is on foot, but there are some winding paths through sugarcane fields with little shade, so it can get quite sunny on hot days. If you just want to see the monkeys, you can wait at the ticket office. When the monkeys come out, staff will take you there in electric carts. The staff at the scenic area are very attentive to whether you see the monkeys. When I tried to go in for a walk, they repeatedly reminded me that I might not see them if I went in now, that my ticket was non-refundable, and that if I didn't see them, I could come back and wait… Also, the timing of the monkey viewing is very important. Around 11 am and 3 or 4 pm are good times to see them. They rest for a long time in between, so you won't be able to see them. I was lucky enough to see the monkeys from Thumb Mountain come down to the fields to eat sweet potato leaves. The alpha male led a large group of his wives and children. Everyone held their breath watching them eat in the field. The little monkeys were so cute!

The ice cave is crystal clear and colorful, very beautiful. The stalactites in the Dragon Palace Cave are all kinds of strange and impressive. You can also take a comfortable two-person car for sightseeing.

The free ancient city is newly built and commercialized, but since it is free for you to come and play, it is better than those domestic ones that are enclosed and charge fees. It is recommended to come in the evening, the night view is several levels higher than the daytime, and there are performances if you catch the weekend.
