It is suggested to get up early the next day in Guilin, take a taxi to Zhujiang Wharf and take a boat trip to Lijiang River. You can also buy a boat ticket at the travel agency's sales office and ask the travel agency's car to pick you up at the pier, so the fare is cheaper. The ship is packed with Chinese food and will arrive in Yangshuo at about 2 noon. The classic scenic spots in Yangshuo include the Moon Mountain and the Big Banyan Tree, which are the places where Brother Niu sang songs and threw hydrangeas in the movie "Sister Liu". You can take some pictures, but I don't think there is anything to see. As for artificial landscapes like butterfly spring and Xanadu, it is best not to go. For the Yulong River rafting, there is no difference in the river itself. The scenery along the coast is similar to that seen when visiting the Lijiang River. You don't have to look at it after visiting the Lijiang River. All the people who run the Yulong River rafting are private, so beware of being slaughtered. Yinziyan is in Lipu County, which is a little far from Yangshuo, but there is a through train to and from. If you don't plan to visit Qixingyan and reed flute cave in the city, go to Yinziyan. If the weather is fine, you can also rent a bicycle for two in Yangshuo County to stroll around and see the scenery in Yangshuo. Another way to visit the Lijiang River is to take a bamboo raft. In the morning, you can take a bus from the downtown hotel to Di Yang. The bamboo raft ticket is cheaper than the ferry ticket, but Chinese food is not included. Most of them go ashore for shopping and lunch, and the destination is Xingping. You can also go to Xingping fishing village to see the ancient villages. Di Yang to Xingping is the essence of Lijiang River. Choose which way to visit the river, and visit the Lijiang River Tour on the official website of China Guilin Lijiang Scenic Area.
In the evening, we live in Yangshuo, visit West Street, eat and drink, and have all kinds of handicrafts, which young people especially like. You can also go and see Zhang Yimou's Impression of Sister Liu.
On the third day, I haven't had enough fun in Yangshuo, so I can play for another day. If you have had enough fun, take the county bus from Guilin to Yangshuo in the morning and return to downtown Guilin to arrange a tour of the city.
During the daytime, the city tours include: If you don't visit Yinziyan, you can go to Qixingyan or reed flute cave, because these two caves are classic scenic spots in Guilin, but they are located in one east and one west, and the scenery in the caves is similar, so just go to one. Generally speaking, reed flute cave is better than Qixingyan only in terms of caves, but Qixing Park has some scenic spots such as Huaqiao, Huaxia Light, Hump, Clinton Lecture Hall, etc. You can also visit other parks in the city and see the history. You can go to Jingjiang Wangcheng, which has a unique peak. There are Diecai Mountain and Fubo Mountain near this scenic spot, so you can go and play.
The city tours in the evening include: watching the night scenes of the two rivers and four lakes, and taking a cruise if you are willing to spend money. If you don't want to spend money, just walk along Ronghu, Yangqiao, Shanhu and binjiang road to Xiangbi Mountain. Except Xiangshan Park, all these scenic spots are open, saving money and relaxing. Xiangshan Park needs tickets. If you don't want to spend this money, just go a little further north along binjiang road, and you can see the panoramic view of Elephant Trunk Mountain when you go to jiefang bridge. You can also go to the pedestrian street. Foreigners like to go to Xicheng Road Pedestrian Street, where there are specialty shops and snacks. Guilin locals love to visit Zhengyang Pedestrian Street, where there are shopping malls and snacks.
Tickets for these scenic spots will be cheaper if you buy them on Ctrip, Xinxin, Nuomi, Meituan and Wowotuan. I suggest you buy tickets and hotel accommodation online. Guilin is the earliest tourist city in China, with convenient transportation, accommodation and catering, which is suitable for self-help travel. The tricks of the tour guides are perfect, so there is no need to be unhappy with them.
Note: Take precautions against illegal taxis, and don't stay near Guilin Railway Station and Bus Station, where there are many thieves, both men and women. Don't buy things in small shops near railway stations and bus stations. Most of those shopkeepers will bully foreign guests. Also, don't expect to have an affair in Guilin. There are many clients in Guilin. They will take the initiative to talk to you and ask you to go to the movies, sing, have coffee and drink, just to kill you. When taking a taxi, don't believe everything the driver says, and don't rule out the possibility that he is also entrusted. Never go to KTV and bars recommended by him. If you encounter blackmailing by bullies, the best policy is to find a way to get away by yourself. If you really can't get away, call 11.
