Xiangong Mountain Sunrise Photo Guide - A Must-Hit Trend on Social Media!

Absolutely stunning photo spot that I highly recommend to everyone—Xiangong Mountain in Yangshuo, Guilin 🏞 Watch the sunrise amidst swirling clouds and mist, and every shot looks like a masterpiece!! Please keep this detailed guide handy~✨ 📍 Address: Xiangong Mountain Viewing Platform, Xingping Town, Yangshuo County, Guilin City (just navigate directly to "Xiangong Mountain") 🚗 Transportation: - Self-driving or chartered car is the most convenient (about 1 hour from Yangshuo) - You can also take a boat from Xingping Wharf + taxi (about 1.5 hours) 💰 Ticket Prices: ✔️ Adults 60 RMB ✔️ Student ID 30 RMB (remember to bring your ID) 🌅 Must-Do Experiences: 1⃣️ Sea of Clouds Sunrise Start as early as 4 AM! It only takes 15 minutes to hike up ⏰ At the moment the sun appears, golden rays pierce through the sea of clouds and light up the mountain tops It’s truly a fairyland!! (Recommend bringing a thick jacket, it’s very cold in the early morning ❄️) 2⃣️ Excellent Photo Spots ✔️ Front row C position at the viewing platform ✔️ Corner of the mountaintop plank road ✔️ Midway platform on the hiking trail 📸 Photography Tips: ▪️ Bring a telephoto lens to capture cloud details ▪️ Wear bright-colored clothes for better photos ▪️ The best shooting time is half an hour before and after sunrise 💡 Tips: ✅ Check the weather in advance; you can only see the sea of clouds on clear days ✅ It’s recommended to stay in Yangshuo the night before for an easy early start ✅ Bring some snacks and water to replenish your energy
