I love this small southern city with a forest of osmanthus trees. In addition to the beautiful rocks in the mountains, green waters and beautiful osmanthus fragrance, she actually has many shortcomings. However, this does not hinder my feelings for her. Just like when the first love season is full of brilliance, you will ignore her bad existence and focus on its beauty.
In ancient and modern times, countless literati and literati have long sung and sung their dreams. Listen to those famous sentences describing "The river is like a green belt, and the mountains are like a jade hairpin" and sigh with emotion that "the five ridges are all hot, pleasant and unique to Guilin" and "I would like to be Guilin people rather than gods"; look at those passers-by who call it beautiful "The mountains are beautiful and beautiful, and the colorful clouds dance in the river and water" praised "The aftertaste lingers and lingers, vaguely like a fairyland tour."
I already feel that I lack language. I couldn't write a better praise, so I had to wander among the mountains and rivers and enjoy the grace of God who made me born and raised here. Follow me for a walk around those popular or niche places, and maybe you will fall in love with this city.

2. Lijiang
The Li River is the soul of Guilin. Among the many scenic spots in Guilin, I always like the Lijiang River the most. I have accompanied guests on many tours and enjoyed the mountains and rivers under the blue sky and white clouds, and the scenery in the fog after rain. Nowadays, whether you are walking along the river bank or sailing in the river, you still can't see enough of the scenery of the Li River. It's a beautiful picture scroll that you can take at your fingertips. Look at this picture. The riverside farmhouse is photographed casually for dinner. The oars stir up microwaves and spread out water patterns. This means that distant mountains carry dreams, and clouds and clouds are intoxicating. How can this artistic conception be such a good word!

Take a look at the following short clips of river tours over the years. They are so beautiful that everyone can become a master photographer.
The sky is misty and misty, the trees are green and flowers are red in the mountains, and bamboo rafts and small boats are on the river
Traveling on the blue waves, people are swimming in paintings
The clouds and clouds rise and surround the mountains, and the colorful clouds dye the Li River
3. Yangshuo scenery
Yangshuo West Street is no longer what I like. Make a detour to the Yulong River. The Yulong River is known as the Wenwen "Little Li River". Avoid the crowds of holidays and choose a warm and sunny autumn day, with white clouds above your head and body bathing in the breeze, ride a simple small bamboo raft, see the graceful green bamboos on both sides of the bank, and look at the rolling and undulating mountains in the distance. You can think about anything, but don't want to, that's really a beautiful enjoyment. Get off the boat, ride your bicycle to Shili Gallery, smell the aroma of rice, and take a picture of the clouds at the sunset. Finally, choose a unique B & B (Bubble House) and count the stars to fall into your dreams. Isn't this really a feeling of being immortal?

Xingping. Xingping Ancient Street on Shiban Road has green bricks and black tiles. After renovation and renovation, it has become the ancient town most unlike an ancient town when it is crowded with people. It is still a pleasant thing to sit by the river and enjoy the wind blowing and admire the passing boats in the beautiful and charming reflection of yellow cloth.
Xianggong Mountain, Damian Mountain, Laozhai Mountain and Cuiping Mountain are places where many photography enthusiasts linger. My husband photographed the sunrise with his big face, and watched the sunset on the green screen of the old village. Only when you climb high can you realize the majesty of rivers, and when you look into the distance, the beautiful mountains and rivers are beautiful. You can only experience the stunning lights, clouds of clouds, sunrise, and colorful clouds with your own eyes. Unfortunately, I am not a photography enthusiast, and my mobile phone cannot produce the visual effects I want.

4. Lipu Fengyuyan
There are many well-known and unknown caves, large and small, in Guilin, such as Reed Flute Rock, Qixing Rock, Yinzi Rock, Fengyuyan, etc. Among the caves I have visited recently, the one that impressed me the most is Lipu Fengyu Rock, which is known as "the underground river drifts ten miles, piercing through nine mountains, and the scenery is wonderful." The cave is wide and the scenery is spectacular. The stalactites are in various shapes, unique in shape and lifelike. It is also interesting to explore the underground river by boat during the tour. Unfortunately, it has been in disrepair for many years, with few tourists and a depressed scene, which has wasted the reputation of "Asia's No. 1 Hole"!

5. Longji terrace
If Yangshuo is a fairyland on earth, Longsheng's Longji Terrace is a paradise. The Longji Terrace is located deep in the mountains and mountains, and has its charm all year round. Long Sheng's friends described it,"Spring is like layers of silver belts, summer rolling green waves, autumn is stacked with golden towers, and winter is like silver."
The most famous stockades in the Longji Terrace are Ping 'an and Jinkeng. I went to two different villages before the autumn harvest. Strolling through the steps, the observation deck can gaze into the distance. The magnificent alpine terraces, with lines stacked like flowing water, are so beautiful that they are shocking. So beautiful! When water is released in spring and snow is snowing in winter, I will come again again!

6. Xing 'an Wind Farm
"There is the Great Wall in the north and the Lingqu in the south." Xing 'an is a famous county with humanistic feelings and a long history. But every time I go to Xing 'an, I prefer to explore the countryside. An old friend of Tiansheng Player took us to pick bamboo shoots, pick mushrooms and catch lotus fish. But what we yearn for most is to watch the sunset, the moon and the stars at different wind farms.

Shooting stars is an unrealized dream. I hope that one day, I can shoot my own starry sky blockbuster!
