Talk about the itinerary:

Transportation in Guangxi is relatively backward, and self-guided tours are not very convenient. The itinerary should be appropriate and flexible and not too fast.


Day1 4.28: Beijing--Guilin Guilin takes an airport charter bus directly to Yangshuo West Street. It is a two-hour drive and it is already 5 pm. The Rosewood Hotel, which I booked three days in advance at Qunar, is located in the busiest area of West Street, but it is adjacent to the riverside and is very quiet at night. At night, I stroll around West Street to make my next itinerary.


Day2 4.29: Rafting in the Yulong River, returning to West Street to rest in the afternoon, and watching Impression Liu Sanjie's live performance in the evening (directed by Zhang Yimou, must-see project). Facts have proved to be good. The scene is spectacular and the content is superficial, so it is still worth a visit. When taking pictures, it is best to bring a 70-200mm telephoto and take some pictures.


Day3 4.30: Lijiang River Rafting. Due to an accident a few days ago, the bamboo raft drifting on the Li River was stopped, and we had to take a large oil tanker. There are many chartered buses at Xijiekou to pick up and bargain! Due to the bad weather and various kinds of money were stolen on the cruise ship, this attempt was a failure. It is recommended that backpackers go directly to Xingping for a night, which is the essence of Yangshuo.


Day4 5.1: Drive to Huangyao Ancient Town, known as Little Guilin. I decided to go because I saw a travel note about Huangyao on the Internet not long ago. The traffic is very bad. Take a bus to Hezhou and then transfer to Huangyao. Non-self-driving tourists will spend half a day on the road. However, Huang Yao is still very worth visiting.


Day5 5.2: Huang Yao returned to Yangshuo and originally booked a room on Longji Terrace. However, due to the inconvenient transportation on May Day, he decided to transfer to Xingping to stay overnight and experience the most beautiful Yangshuo. This is the case.


Day6 5.3 : Xingping returned to Yangshuo. After lunch on West Street, he went to the bar in the afternoon, and took a chartered bus to the airport in the evening to return to Beijing. Game over。



Drinking alcohol, taking photos, chatting, encountering, catching fireflies, looking at stars, calm your mind. Listen to the jazz you like in the bar on West Street, swallow your saliva at the sexy DJ, order two bottles of wine, and watch groups of drunk and revelry lost generation. This is Yangshuo's way of playing; Huangyao's ancient alleys after the rain, jars of delicious pickles, yellowing brick walls, stone bridges, reflections, social operas, and drinking under the moon. This is Huangyao's way of playing; Xingping, follow the masters, set up a tripod in the Li River, set the parameters, wait for the sunset and burning clouds in the cold, and encounter a Spanish girl and alumni, chat and drink in the bar, climb the mountain to watch the sunrise together, and say goodbye. This is Xingping's way of playing goodbye.


The equipment is the Pentax K5. I am a brainless fan. I have never had the heart to destroy my family and cast C or N. This time, the lenses mainly use DA21 3.2HD and DA50 1.8. A small number of scenery use DA14 2.8 ultra-wide angle. The head covers 18-200 are basically idle. Facts have proved that the viewing angle of 21mm is really good when used in APS-C format. The classic human eye viewing angle naturally has a high output rate. It would be better if the aperture was larger.


Let's take a few pictures to enjoy ourselves first, the sunset in Xingping

Because it is May Day, house prices have doubled. Food and accommodation actually vary from person to person. There are all prices, so I won't say much here.

But in terms of diet, 1. Chunji Roast Goose is strongly promoted! A restaurant recommended to me by locals is very famous in Guilin. It has good decoration, dishes, and grades. The price is unexpected. Many friends in the industry have recommended this restaurant. 2. Guilin rice noodles must be given a try. There are many choices, and they should all taste similar. It is no mistake to find a place with good business. 3. Although beer fish is a local specialty, I personally don't like this taste very much.


In terms of transportation, it is best to contact the local travel agency and help charter a car to pick up and drop off. On that day, if you have time, it would be best to do your homework and rent a bicycle.


There are three main routes for travel in Yangshuo. One is the Shili Gallery Route, which is southwest and has many scenic spots on the way, including rafting on the Yulong River; the other is the northeast route, which is the Lijiang River rafting. However, tourists can take a bus directly to Xingping to stay, which is the most beautiful and elite attraction on the Lijiang River; the other is the northwest route, a newly developed Xanadu Scenic Area, but it is said that Jingzi is still very good.


Picture above: (West Street Chapter)

West Street is the street for Westerners. Yangshuo is an attraction developed relatively early in China and has naturally become a distribution center for foreigners. Countless gap year and retired foreigners come here for holidays. The picture shows a handsome and beautiful man riding a bicycle.

It was here at the Xingping Ancient Town Night Market that I met my Spanish friend Clara and helped her guide the way. Then I found out that she was actually an international student from the same school. It was a coincidence, so after settling down, I went out for drinks and bars in the evening. It was quite speculative.

These are Yangshuo in my eyes. In a word, it not only has the beauty of Xingping, but also has the colorful lights and wine of West Street. It is really a place of charm. I couldn't help but make a wish to own my own inn or coffee shop here within 15 years, and come and rest for a while every year when I am free.


Next is another destination on this trip, Huangyao Ancient Town. After taking a bus from Yangshuo to Hezhou, it broke down halfway, and after a long time, taking various rides, I finally arrived at Huangyao. I can't help but complain about Guangxi's traffic xxxxx.


East Zhouzhuang, West Fenghuang, South Huangyao, North Pingyao.

Some people call them China's four major ancient towns. In fact, the other three are well known to everyone, and Huangyao is the most unfamiliar one.

Huangyao is a famous town in Guangxi. Huangyao is an ancient town with a history of nearly a thousand years. It originated in the Song Dynasty, was built during the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty, and reached its peak during the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty. Because the majority of the town has Huang and Yao surnames, it is named "Huang Yao".

With a history of nearly a thousand years, relatively simple folk customs have been preserved. There is no strong commercial atmosphere like Lijiang and Xijie. It is surrounded by karst-style mountains and a very quiet town. In fact, when looking at a place, you only need to observe the eyes of the local people to get a glimpse. In Huangyao, in the eyes of every old man, what he can see is peace and peace.

Here, for the first time in my life, I saw fireflies and let them crawl between my arms. It was itchy and I couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature.


Start with the above picture:

The first is that Huangyao's night market has a unique style

When the sun rose the next day, I bid farewell to Huang Yao. I may never come here, but my memories and photos are eternal.

Let's just write it here.
