The flight from Nanjing to Guilin was China Southern Airlines, but due to the weather, it was 8 hours late. A pleasant trip started with staying up late at the airport.

Friends who don't travel frequently should pay attention to whether they are passing planes when buying tickets. We bought flights from Harbin to Nanjing, and from Nanjing to Guilin. Of course, when buying tickets, we will not remind you that this is a passing plane; in fact, there was a China Eastern Airlines plane 10 minutes before our flight. People take off on time;

The first day of the Yulong River

When we arrived in Guilin, we chose a self-driving tour. The hotel we chose was the Pulley Hotel in the New town area of Guilin, on the other side of Century Avenue. The hotel provided free pick-up service, but due to the delay of the plane, we could not confirm the departure time at all times, so we gave up the pick-up request and took a taxi there ourselves. The cost was about 60. The hotel is comfortable in all respects and the breakfast is good. It can be used as a hotel with low requirements but relatively good value for money;

We chose a car rental service. I don't know if it was holidays or if it was the standard. The car rental was 3 days and the cost was 1,800.

From the hotel to Yangshuo, it takes a 2-hour drive to reach the Yulong River directly. Because of my travel 10 years ago, I vaguely remember the feeling of the clear river water and the Lijiang River upstream of the bamboo raft. However, I still had an unpleasant feeling in the middle of this trip. The next step is to talk;

We inquired and found that the classic bamboo raft section of the Yulong River is from Jinlongqiao Wharf to Jiuxian Wharf. When we arrived at our destination, it was already 1 p.m. and the tickets had been sold out; at this time, you will find that there are local residents nearby telling you that he took you to a certain terminal and there are still tickets. My husband and I discussed that since we were here, we couldn't turn around and follow the villagers to another dock. It only takes about 10 minutes to drive. The villagers will tell you that it will be 200 yuan per person, and she will help you buy a ticket; At this time, we must follow her closely and transfer the money to her before boarding the boat; because we finally gave us a ticket, when we went to the ticket office to buy a ticket, we found that it was only 145 yuan per ticket; it was hacked for 200 yuan. Just as we felt when we met the Dragon River later, the water became turbid, not as clear as last time; the boatman lamented: People's hearts can change, let alone the river water;

The wreath I bought from an old farmer costs 5 yuan each, but the last time I played it seemed to be 2 yuan; because many of them are very old people, it is more convenient to carry change with you;

After finishing the scenic spots, we stayed in Puyuan, a B & B. This hotel is a great choice. The service inside is very good and the hotel is very comfortable. Drive from Yulong River to Puyuan. It was about 30 minutes away. Later, the hotel owner informed us that we were passing through Shili Gallery on the way back. It was rumored online that it was a good place to ride bicycles. Once people arrived in Guilin, they would be numb. There were mountains everywhere, so the eyes who appreciated the beauty would also be unaware, and that was Shili Gallery;

Driving out for dinner from Puyuan, I chose Master Shifu Beer Fish. Beer fish still needs to be tasted, but I personally think that using catfish is not as good as the taste of Lijiang fish before, and the taste is still excellent. Field snails are also a local specialty, but because there is a family of three, they make them a little dizzy after eating them. Inside is river snail meat and meat, which is greasy. Master Shifu's beer fish is 120 yuan per person, which is still a bit expensive. I ate more than 300 for one dinner;

The next day's itinerary

The next day we went to Xingping Town. An hour's drive from Yangshuo Town, Xingping was a check-in point for RMB 20, and there was also the old man with a lonely boat and a feather man. Xingping is also an ancient town. Because the weather is too hot, the ancient town has not been visited; Drive directly to the ticket office, buy the section from Xingping to Jiuma Huashan, and then take a small train for 20 yuan per person from the section of Jiuma Huashan. When you go there, you will walk to the dock. Remember to walk to the dock. There is a 20-yuan check-in place. Old people can also pass by along the way. In addition, don't rush to queue up to take photos at the 20-yuan check-in place just entering the dock scenic area. In fact, when you walk to the real boat dock, that's the real 20-yuan check-in place. And there are few people; It takes about 20-30 minutes to walk from the ticket office to the boat place, which I personally think is acceptable; it takes about half an hour by boat, and along the way you will see the essence of the Li River, such as the Seven Fairy Fairies, Nine Horse Painting Mountains, Dolphin Mountain, etc.;

I had dinner that day at Puyuan. The chef's craftsmanship was good and the price was not cheap. As a tourist destination, if I want to be cheap, I guess I can only eat Guilin rice noodles; by the way, rice noodles are not very fond of me.

In the evening, I set off from the hotel to see the impression of Sister Liu. The ticket was booked from the hotel, and the price was cheaper than the one sold at the ticket counter;220 per ticket; talk about the feeling of watching movies. Large-scale light shows, 10 years ago, I was reluctant to watch them because of the high price. I can still complete a dream 10 years later, but I can only say that I need to keep pace with the times and will not watch them again. The locals actually recommend going to see the ancient love of the past, which is considered good; they can only say we will discuss it next time

Day 3 Longji Terrace

Going to Longji can be considered fulfilling the wish I had 10 years ago. I didn't go there at that time. It took more than 2 hours to drive from Yangshuo. Guangxi's highways are smooth all the way. When I set out from Yangshuo, I happened to see the hot air balloon playing place. I took two photos and left. After all, there are hot air balloons everywhere, but the terraces are only here

When you arrive at the scenic spot, you need to buy a ticket. You can pay in the car without parking, and then drive into the mountains. There are several shanzhai houses. Because of luck, you choose the safe shanzhai. My husband said that the Jinkeng terraces felt like a pit. hahaha

Parking first, go to the parking lot, and then buy tickets for the small train to drive us to a terraced viewing spot. We chose the small train up the mountain and walk down the mountain. We didn't need to buy a small train pass back and forth. Walking in the mountains is also a different feeling. The day I went was raining and the smoke curled up. It was really a feeling in the mountains. Regarding taking photos, I personally feel that Zhang Zhang is a large piece, and it is not easy to feel the working people and the life of the people in the village;

After eating bamboo rice, haha, I felt ordinary; spring pheasants, because of the high humidity in the area, the pheasants cooked by the mountain people put a lot of ginger in them, so it was not particularly acceptable to us to drink; we randomly found a hotel in the stockade when eating;

Returning to the city directly from Longji to Guilin City, I chose the Lotto Hotel. In addition to the convenient location, other really garbage and felt dirty. The hotel is wet, and because of the Golden Week, the hotel price is not cheap. The so-called shuttle service is still paid. Oh my God, why write it when it's already paid? Do you think I can't get a cab?

It has started to rain since the 3rd. The Haitian Rice Noodles I eat at night are really close from the hotel to the Haitian Rice Noodle Store. The rice Noodles are delicious and cheap, but you will feel greasy when you eat them too much; you can still taste them; but compared with the rice Noodles of Cantonese, I don't think they can be compared. The rice Noodles of Cantonese people feel more delicious; the rice Noodles of Guilin, Guangxi, feel unclean and greasy;

I originally wanted to go to the East and West Alley, but I didn't go in the end. Because her husband said that he passed by while returning the car, but he felt that it was not as big as Confucius Temple, so he didn't go there even if it wanted to rain.

Breakfast No. 4

On the morning of the 4th, I went to taste the Forrest Gump Hotel. It tasted good. The feeling was a bit similar to the morning tea of Cantonese people. I can only say that I had a meal of Cantonese morning tea in Guilin;

Then I went to the plane. Because the naughty child had to make up for homework, he had to return to Ning in advance; taking a taxi from the city to the airport was about 80 yuan. I ate the roast goose that I see everywhere at the airport, and it tasted delicious; the return flight was Junxiang Airlines, which was half an hour late, which was acceptable;

Summary:

1. When parking by car, space is king everywhere. No matter how long private parking takes, it costs 30 yuan. This is quite disgusting, but there is no way to do it. The local government doesn't feel like it doesn't care.

2. Don't buy tickets from scalpers, unless they are for sale at a hotel. Don't buy scattered scalpers, in case you encounter my experience.

3. Due to the high humidity, try to choose a good hotel when you stay in the city, otherwise you will really feel bad.

4. We have been to Yinziyan, Elephant Trunk Mountain, Moon Mountain, Butterfly Spring, Big Banyan Tree and other things on our last trip. My husband and I didn't like them, so we didn't make any arrangements this time.
