A Li has long heard that "Guilin's mountains and rivers are the best in the world" and has read many poems and poems about Guilin's mountains and rivers. He has always longed to one day see the real-life version of Guilin's mountains and rivers with his own eyes.

A Li once sang as the song "I Want to Go to Guilin":"I want to go to Guilin, I want to go to Guilin, but when I have time, I have no money; I want to go to Guilin, I want to go to Guilin, but when I have money, I don't have time..."

From June 18th to 21st, 2018, A Li took advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival and the holiday from the adjusted holiday to sign up for a highly rated Guilin tourism tour online with his friend Yang Liu to play Yangshuo Li River for 4 days and 3 nights. After a group tour, I finally experienced the beautiful scenery of Guilin's mountains and rivers, and also personally felt the enthusiasm and savvy of Guilin merchants.

The clear and handsome mountains and rivers of Guilin can be seen everywhere and at any time throughout our trip.

On June 19th, I visited Xanadu and Yulong River in the morning, and Li River and Yinziyan in the afternoon; on the morning of the 20th, I visited Duoye Ancient Village of the Dong Nationality and Wanfu Square·Leisure Tourism City, and in the afternoon, I visited Duxiu Peak·Wangcheng Scenic Area; On the morning of the 21st, I visited Ludi Guanshitang Museum and Elephant Trunk Mountain, and visited Mulong Lake in the afternoon. A Li was fascinated by the small and exquisite mountains of various shapes and shapes throughout Guilin, and was fascinated by the clarity of Guilin.I was fascinated by the see-through and sparkling water, and I was fascinated by Guilin's unfathomable and grotesque caves.

The bamboo rafts on the Yulong River and Li River and the phoenix-tailed bamboos on both sides let A Li linger! A Li was shocked by the waterfall-like silver stalactites in Yinziyan and the vivid shape and color of the Root of Life! The blooming iron tree beside Mulong Lake surprised A Li even more: the iron tree not only blooms, but also has male and female flowers!

As for the enthusiasm and savvy of Guilin merchants, A Li personally feels that it seems to surpass other places A Li has visited. The weather in Guilin also seems to have been influenced by the merchants: Before A Li left, the weather in Guilin was rainy every day, so A Li bought river tracing shoes specially; after arriving, the sun was shining for the first three days of the trip, and only on the last day it rained heavily, so that A Li's river tracing shoes had no white belt. The weather in Guilin made A Li overjoyed and returned satisfied.

The enthusiasm and savvy of Guilin merchants is reflected in allowing tourists to have fun, buy good and eat well.

The tour guides for the entire trip and the tour guides for various attractions were very enthusiastic and conscientious. They would visit wherever they should visit and talk about what they should explain.

As for how to get tourists to buy them well, merchants in various attractions have worked hard.

During the boat tour of the Li River on the 19th, in addition to enthusiastic explanations, the crew also stopped the boat at a place with excellent scenery, allowing each tourist to take turns standing on the bow. She used her camera to take several pictures for the tourists to choose. Print them out immediately, and each ticket is 20 yuan; when taking photos, there are cormorant boats approaching at the bow, and the cormorant owner temporarily rented out cormorants. Many tourists ask for their photos as a souvenir of their visit.

When visiting Yinziyan, there is a treasure exhibition in the cave. Tourists can buy tickets to visit and purchase, but not every tourist is forced to go; but several shops at the exit of Yinziyan are the only roads for tourists. The road of each shop is back and forth, winding and winding, forcing every tourist to pass through every shelf in the store. This was the first time that Ah Li encountered such a circling exit, and his previous happy mood disappeared. Coupled with the fact that the tour guide's appointed gathering time was approaching, Ah Li, who was already exhausted, became furious and made up his mind to accuse this practice of being unkind or even extremely bad when evaluating the goods online!

On the 20th, we visited the brand-new Doye Ancient Village of the Dong Nationality, and the process was exactly the same as that of A Li's visit to Songpan Tibetan Village in Sichuan and Mosuo Village in Lugu Lake in Yunnan: a beautiful village cultural representative came out to receive us, first introducing national culture, and then introducing the folk prescription that silver can cure all diseases. Then we used a silver comb or silver bracelet to scrape one or two tourists. Finally, we took the tourists to a silverware selling place, allowing tourists to buy "locally made silverware" as much as they wanted. A Li was very surprised: Why do three different ethnic groups located far apart have the same prescriptions for treating diseases? Even the three cultural representatives said the same words. Solve! Of course, there are differences-the price of silverware is different: Tibetan silverware in Songpan, Sichuan is about 20 yuan per gram, Mosuo silverware in Lugu Lake, Yunnan is more than 20 yuan per gram, and here it is about 30 yuan per gram. For something that costs about four yuan per gram, why are the prices so different in three places? Solve it again! Because A Li had no money, she did not buy local magical silverware, but many people in the group bought silver bowls, silver cups, silver bracelets, silver rings, etc.

After visiting Duoye Ancient Village, the tour guide led us to Wanfu Square·Leisure and Tourism City. The only attraction was Shiji Hualian Supermarket! A Li's companion, Comrade Yang Liu, who was still childlike, ran to the tour guide and asked,"Tour guide, we signed up for pure entertainment groups and no shopping. Why did you take us to the supermarket?" The tour guide replied sincerely and friendly: "Because this is an AAA attraction." The tour guide did not lie to us: A Li really saw the AAA national tourist attraction sign assessed by the National Tourist Attraction Quality Rating Committee on the wall at the entrance of Wanfu Square Leisure Tourism City; not far from the supermarket entrance, he also found the Wanfu Square Leisure Tourism City Visitor Center with the locked door. A Li, Yang Liu and all the tourists, who had gained knowledge, shopped around the Century Hualian Supermarket with great interest. Things in the supermarket are not as expensive as we thought, so many people come out carrying big and small bags. The tour guide gave each of us a small box of osmanthus cakes at the exit of the mall as a gift promised by the merchants online to tourists.

In the afternoon, we went to Duxiu Peak·Wangcheng Scenic Area. During the tour, the tour guide organized everyone to write the Fu character, worship Taisui, and take the imperial examination. The group members all had a great time. Of course, they also had to consider whether to buy the Fu character they had created, their own Taisui image, and their own imperial examination photos. After the imperial examination game was over, everyone realized that the gathering time was almost up, and the Duxiu Peak, known as the Strange Peak of Guilin, had not yet been climbed! A Li could only take a recent photo of Zhang Duxiu Peak and got on the bus, leaving a regret.

On the morning of the 21st, we went to Guanshi Hall, which was full of photos of celebrities visiting. After appreciating all kinds of chicken blood jades, large and small, A Li and his group members were taken into an oversized hall selling various precious jade stones. It may be the last day of the trip, and everyone's wallets may have shrunk, so this time no one in the group bought beautiful jade.

Looking back at the few days of his trip in Guilin, A Li now found that he didn't have to worry about extra shopping in Xiangbei Mountain Park on the last day, which is what netizens said was to pay IQ tax. A Li guessed: Was this because the rain was too heavy that day? Solve again.

A Li didn't expect that the four-day tour of Guilin, which is known as pure fun, would have so many hidden links to pay IQ taxes; what A Li didn't expect was that the online evaluation of this tourism product was very high-both the comments I saw before departure and the comments I saw after returning! After Li came back to receive the goods, he also gave him a five-star review.

Why?

A Li guessed that it was mainly because the group meal was good.

Compared with the group meal A Li has eaten before, this time the group meal in Guilin is the best. Every time the group meal is eaten in a regular hotel, and the hotel environment is surprisingly good; the people who come to eat include both groups of tourists and individual guests; the quality and quantity of the meals are impeccable.

For dinner on June 18th, we had authentic Guilin rice noodles at Ritouhuo Rice Noodle Shop near Lijiang Theater in Guilin-a large bowl of rice noodles contained a marinated egg and several slices of meat. You can add soybeans, pickles, etc., and you can also pay for various small bowls of steamed vegetables.

At noon on June 19th, I had a local specialty beer fish banquet at a major hotel in Yangshuo. The group members expressed satisfaction with the color and taste of the dishes, and took photos and posted them on their circles of friends.

At noon on June 20, I ate the popular local delicacy "Chunji Roast Goose" in a prosperous area of Guilin. The dishes served were so many that I couldn't finish them. Moreover, the hotel supplied a large amount of various fruits, and tourists could take them as long as you could eat them. This time, few of the group members took photos-everyone was busy eating.

At noon on June 21, we had a buffet worth 99 yuan at the Grand Mansion of a Five-Star Hotel in Guilin. The hotel is as luxurious as a palace, which is amazing. There is also a lot of food and you can enjoy it slowly.

If you want to capture a person's heart, you must capture his stomach. Guilin merchants know this well!

When you eat happily, all unpleasantness will be wiped out immediately. What's more, the tour guide often cries out for Guilin's poverty: Guilin has moved away its heavy industries in order to keep its green mountains and clear waters, so its economy is very backward. Everyone comes to travel and buy things to help the poor; what's more, when the tour guide sends everyone off, He will repeatedly remind everyone to give him good reviews online, otherwise he will not be able to get his salary for the month!

The group meal is good every meal, and each meal is different; the osmanthus cake is served with hands, and it tastes good. As the saying goes: The hand that takes a person is short, and the mouth that eats a person is soft. Moreover, on the afternoon of June 18th, the merchant also gave away a ticket for the large-scale 5D magic show "Landscape", allowing everyone to watch a wonderful and exciting performance! In this way, who would be embarrassed to give a bad evaluation online? Of course it's a five-star review!

Half a month has passed since the four-day tour of Guilin, and A Li still remembers from time to time what he saw and heard there. A Li hopes that Guilin's mountains and rivers will always be clear and beautiful. A Li also hopes that Guilin's merchants will always be enthusiastic and kind. At the same time, A Li also hopes that Guilin's merchants will be less savvy in making tourists pay more IQ taxes in the future.
