I spent 3 days in Guilin and my concept of spending collapsed, because…

🌈 Hey guys👫, if you're thinking about traveling in February, Guilin is definitely a fantastic choice! Today, I'm sharing a super detailed Guilin 3-day, 2-night itinerary that guarantees a fun and worry-free trip~ 1. Itinerary Day 1: Encounter the Essence of the Landscape Morning: Head straight to the classic 20 RMB banknote backdrop📷. The scenery here is absolutely stunning, so be sure to take lots of beautiful photos! After that, go to the Li River and take a bamboo raft downstream to experience the beauty of "a painting unfolding before your eyes." In February, the Li River's water is crystal clear, and the green hills on both sides appear faintly in the mist, like a fairyland🧚‍♀️. Afternoon: Arrive at Xingping Ancient Town, stroll through the ancient streets, taste local snacks, and enjoy the town's laid-back atmosphere. Then, go to Silver Cave. The stalactites inside, illuminated by lights, take on various wondrous shapes, like a crystal palace, breathtakingly beautiful😍. Evening: Yangshuo West Street is bustling with activity. Join the fun, but just wander around; don't buy anything there, especially local specialties, as the prices aren't very appealing🙅‍♀️. Day 2: Explore the Charm of Guilin City Morning: Elephant Trunk Hill is a landmark attraction in Guilin, a must-visit! See the lifelike elephant-shaped mountain and take a photo with it🐘. Lunch: Find a small restaurant nearby and try Guilin rice noodles. The aroma is simply divine~ Afternoon: Solitary Beauty Peak offers picturesque views of Guilin city. Jingjiang Prince City is also worth a visit to experience the charm of history. After visiting the Prince City, go to East and West Alley, where there are many unique shops and delicious food. It's a great place to stroll and snack😋. Evening: The Sun and Moon Pagodas are incredibly beautiful when lit up. Seeing them at night is simply mesmerizing, perfect for taking photos📸. Day 3: Unique Scenery and Romance Morning: Head to the Longji Rice Terraces. In February, Ping'an Village starts to irrigate the fields, creating stunning glass-like rice paddies that reflect the sky and mountains like mirrors. It's a speechless beauty🤩. Lunch: Have some farmhouse food near the Longji Rice Terraces and taste the local specialties. Afternoon: Go to Xianggong Mountain to watch the sunset🌄. Remember to leave early, as it's a bit far from Yangshuo County. The sunset view here is spectacular and definitely worth the trip. After watching the sunset, take a bamboo raft on the Yulong River and enjoy the tranquil and romantic atmosphere. Afterward, rent an e-bike and ride along the Ten Mile Gallery. The scenery along the way is picturesque, allowing you to fully enjoy the beauty of Guilin. Evening: Go to Guilin Impression Sanjie Liu and watch a wonderful performance to experience Guilin's history, culture, and folk customs. It's a feast for the eyes👏. 2. Travel Tips⚠️ 1. As mentioned earlier, be cautious when shopping on West Street to avoid getting ripped off~ 2. Ping'an Village in the Longji Rice Terraces is the place to be right now, with its stunning glass-like rice paddies, perfect for photos. 3. When renting an e-bike for the Ten Mile Gallery, be sure to check the battery level carefully. Running out of power halfway would be awkward, especially in a remote area😅. 4. If you're traveling with elderly people or children and want to experience bamboo rafting, Wanjing Multi-person Rafting is a good option, as it's relatively safe and stable. 5. To see the sunrise from Xianggong Mountain, be sure to get up early and don't miss the breathtaking view. It's best to check the sunrise time in advance⏰. 6. Restaurant recommendation🏠: Liyue Riverview Restaurant!📍It's located near the 20 RMB banknote backdrop scenic spot in Xingping Ancient Town, by the Li River. They have free parking and charging stations, which is super convenient~🥳. The average cost is around 80 yuan per person, and the food is delicious👍. Definitely give it a try. 3. Accommodation Recommendations 1. Near the Li River: 📍Li River Poetry and the Distance Courtyard Hotel is right by the Li River, a fantastic location! It's close to Elephant Trunk Hill, Two Rivers and Four Lakes, Solitary Beauty Peak, and other attractions, all within walking distance. It's perfect for a 2- or 3-day city walk~ Their Li River Cafe on the first floor is right by the river. It's a great place to relax in the afternoon, sip coffee, and enjoy the scenery😌. 2. By the Yulong River: 📍Yangshuo Gallery Courtyard Hotel is located near the Yulong River in the Ten Mile Gallery area. It's a few minutes' walk to bamboo rafting, where you can experience the unique charm of Guilin's landscape. Taking photos here is effortless, with every shot turning out amazing📷. Guys, follow this itinerary and you're guaranteed an unforgettable February trip to Guilin! Pack your bags and head to Guilin to embrace the picturesque scenery🌄~
