In-depth Tour of Guilin City! Explore the Beautiful Landscape City~

✨[One]: Classic Li River Highlights 1: Elephant Trunk Hill Park (Guilin's city emblem! Capture the full view of "elephant drinking water" at Viewing Platform No. 2) → Walk 15 mins to **Dongxi Alley** for Guilin rice noodles (recommend Lao Dongjiang flagship store) 2: Li River Bamboo Raft (Yangdi-Nine Horses Fresco Hill section! Must-see Yellow Cloth Reflection + 20 Yuan Scenic Spot) → Head to **Xingping Ancient Town** at dusk for fishing boats and sunset - Stay overnight: Near Yangshuo West Street, explore bar street or watch *Impression Liu Sanjie* live show 🌿[Two]: Yangshuo Hidden Gems 1: Yulong River Jinlong Bridge Drift (choose manual bamboo rafts! Dam drops are thrilling) → Cycle through **Ten-Mile Gallery** (navigate to "Haruki Murakami Cafe" for pastoral photo ops) 2: Silver Cave (Asia's most beautiful karst cave) or **Ruyi Peak** (cable car + glass walkway overlooking karst mountains) - Hidden experience: Visit **Jiuxian Village** in the evening for tie-dye/Osmanthus cake-making ⛰[Three]: Longji Terraces Adventure 1: Drive/charter a car for 2 hrs to **Jinkeng Dazhai** (choose No. 3 Viewing Platform "Golden Buddha Peak," stunning golden rice waves in Sep-Oct!) - Try on Yao ethnic costumes, savor oil tea and bamboo-tube rice 💡Pro Tips 1️⃣ Transport: Yangshuo High-Speed Rail Station is 40 mins from downtown; direct buses from Guilin Airport 2️⃣ Avoid pitfalls: Li River bamboo rafts don’t allow kids under 1.2m; Yulong River has segmented pricing (Jinlong Bridge-Jiuxian section offers best value) 3️⃣ Food: Beer fish (choose swordfish!), Lipu taro pork, Osmanthus jelly 📸Photo Hotspots ✔️ Xingping Laozhai Mountain (free! Summit for Li River’s first bend) ✔️ Yangshuo Huashan Yunshe (infinity pool + ink-painting backdrop) ✔️ Longji Terraces Seven Stars with Moon Viewing Platform (magical with morning mist)
