The scenic area is easily accessible, located right next to the high-speed rail station, with clear signage and easy to find. It's also centrally located, very close to the entrance of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. Excellent!
A truly worthwhile scenic spot. The various waterfalls are breathtaking and awe-inspiring; one visit is never enough. This trip was during the off-season, and with the rain, there weren't many tourists, allowing for a more thorough exploration. Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is undoubtedly one of the best in China. Perhaps due to the off-season, there were fewer activities, and relying solely on the natural scenery made it slightly less engaging. However, the scenic area has to consider costs, so this is understandable. I'll definitely come back in a different season.

My first trip to Nanning was amazing, and the beauty and grandeur of Qingxiu Mountain exceeded my expectations. The chrysanthemum exhibition under the blue sky and white clouds was particularly beautiful, with vibrant colors. Each garden had its own unique charm. Although I only visited once, I can already imagine that Qingxiu Mountain has different beauties in every season, making it well worth visiting again and again.
The park is far from the city center and very large. After entering, you need to buy a separate ticket to take a sightseeing bus. You then get off at each of the smaller parks within the park to explore. Regardless of how many stops you take, the fare is the same. After visiting one park, you need to buy a ticket again to go to the next park. It's also inconvenient to find food and shopping nearby.

On our last night in Guilin, we took the Two Rivers & Four Lakes night cruise. The lights, reflections, and evening breeze made the city feel wonderfully gentle, giving our trip a perfect finale. A heartfelt thank you to Dylan from Trip.com for his prompt replies,
The night view was enchanting, and experiencing the two types of locks was fantastic. I arrived early, but the ticket inspector helped me change my ticket to an earlier departure if there were available seats. The fourteen bridges are all unique in design; pay special attention to the paintings and reliefs beneath the bridge surfaces.

This was my first time visiting Guilin, and I found it to be truly beautiful. It's not far from other attractions, there are plenty of good restaurants nearby, and the photos I took there turned out beautifully. Highly recommended!
This is an iconic scenic place for a visit to Guilin. The place is quite crowded. The ticket is free. However, you can only buy one ticket for one person at one time.

Not far from Dongxi Lane, there are dedicated guided tours inside the school. Rating it 5A is a bit of an exaggeration. The tour guides seemed to be pushing sales, constantly trying to sell things. It felt too commercial.
Jingjiang Prince City perfectly blends Guilin's natural beauty with its rich cultural heritage, allowing every visitor to appreciate the stunning scenery while deeply experiencing the profoundness of Chinese culture. Here, nature and humanity harmonize, history and modernity coexist—a place not to be missed. What surprised me most was the Imperial Examination Hall, the site of the ancient imperial examinations. Standing inside, I could almost see the scholars diligently writing their essays. It's especially suitable for taking photos in Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), creating a truly immersive atmosphere.

I came too late this time. April and May are for seeing the greenery, and September and October are for seeing the yellow. I came in mid-to-late November, so while there wasn't much left, it was still quite spectacular. Next time, I'll definitely come during the right season to see the beautiful scenery!
Visiting the Longji Rice Terraces in early November, it was drizzling. The rice was ripe, and the layers of golden rice fields, set against the backdrop of the misty rain, had a poetic beauty that made one marvel at the diligence and resilience of our Chinese ancestors.

The ship was clean, and the bow and decks were perfect for taking photos. Although the voyage was long, the extended time allowed us to fully appreciate the scenery on both banks and take pictures.
Good communication, had an orginiser called Dylan. he was very respectful and helpful. The cruise was good, stunning view. Food onboard was pricey but the events and narriation (mandarin) was great. Not much wall sockets so I would advise bringing a powerbank.

Guilin's scenery is the best under heaven, and the Li River cruise accounts for more than half of it. When you come to Guilin, you must experience the Li River cruise. The upper cabin I bought was on the second floor, but there wasn't much difference from the first floor. On the boat, I also tried the beer fish (120 yuan including rice), which was enough to fill my stomach.
Enjoying the scenery of the Li River by boat is definitely worthwhile. I highly recommend this group-buying deal on Ctrip; it's absolutely wonderful! The customer service was incredibly helpful; I encountered a problem, but they resolved it very quickly and efficiently. I'm extremely satisfied with my Ctrip travel purchase.

Yangsu's Yulong River rafting is highly recommended. The bamboo raft drifts downstream, the river gently flowing, and the lush green mountains and waters on both sides create a picturesque scene. The more thrilling part is the dam-striking experience, where the water splashes against your face, a thrilling experience without any danger, and the raftsman's witty remarks are truly captivating.
The Yulong River and the Ten-Li Gallery are well worth a visit, with stunning views. It's a truly soothing experience. Tips: We recommend staying in a hotel or B&B near the Yulong River for convenient access. The bamboo rafting trip on the Yulong River is divided into several sections. If you're staying upstream, take a raft down, disembark at the dock, and then rent an electric bike to cruise up the Ten-Li Gallery, stopping to take photos or stroll along the river. If you're staying downstream, rent an electric bike to cruise up the Ten-Li Gallery, return it, and then take a bamboo raft down the river at the dock.

The park is quite large. If you have enough time, it is recommended that you come early in the afternoon to play the park's entertainment projects first. There are two in the Devil City😂, with food and entertainment. It is recommended to watch the performance around 16:30 and then enjoy the night view of the park. If it is a holiday, the entertainment projects may not end until 23:00 in the evening😂, so you can feel that the ticket price is very worthwhile🤩
It was a truly fascinating experience.
First, the scenic area had many well-organized recreational activities, so there was no need to be idle.
Second, the activities had local characteristics.
Finally, the entire visit was a joy.
