Guangxi Mingshi Pastoral | A Hidden Karst Paradise in a Landscape Fairyland!

Come to Mingshi Pastoral in Chongzuo, Guangxi! With ink-painting-like landscapes, it’s the filming location of *The Journey of Flower* and a real-life Karst fairyland! This firsthand guide unlocks off-the-beaten-path experiences—save it now! 👇 🚣‍♀️ Must-Try: Bamboo Rafting on Mingshi River Glide downstream on a bamboo raft for a 40-minute journey. Phoenix-tail bamboos sway along the banks, and Karst peaks reflect on the emerald water, as if sailing through a giant ink wash painting! The boatman’s Zhuang folk songs deepen the immersion! 📸 Photographer’s Hotspots **Longtou Mountain Panorama**: A 15-minute hike rewards you with sunrise clouds over golden rice fields—a drone view is even more stunning! **Cycling by Mingshi Bridge**: Rent a bike (¥30/day) and ride through rice waves and solitary peaks—every shot is postcard-worthy! 🌾 Discover Zhuang Culture Chat with villagers farming in the fields and try paddling a bamboo-weave boat! For dinner, head to **Mingshi Villa**—bamboo-tube rice + pan-fried river fish, just ¥60/person for authentic Zhuang flavors! 🏡 Stay Amidst the Scenery **Mingshi Nali Hotel**: Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the peaks; stargazing from the private pool is magical! **Mingshi Yaju**: Stilted Zhuang-style lodges with rice-field views at sunrise—top value for money! 📍 Travel Tips Drive from Nanning (~2.5 hours) or take a high-speed train to Chongzuo South Station, then hire a car (~¥200, 1 hour). *"Less famous than Li River, it hides a purer soul of landscapes! Morning mist over rice fields, ripples from bamboo rafts… every frame whispers Chinese landscape aesthetics!"* 👉 Follow me for more crowd-free hidden gems!
