East-West Lane
花花过鱼Every city has such a street series, to Guilin, this title flower drops east and west lanes. In fact, East and West Lane is equivalent to another famous Zhengyang Road pedestrian street, because these two blocks are bounded by Jiefang East Road, which is connected by an underground commercial corridor and passageway. It can be counted as a section. If you want to go, you can walk around together. In comparison, Zhengyang Road is biased towards a wider road plus sporadic alleys on both sides, the main alleys are supplemented by the main alleys. East and West Lane is a block of Zhenger Bajing, there are many paths weaved, the north side of East and West Lane is leaning on the famous Duxiu Peak Wangcheng Scenic Area, Guilin's only Ming Dynasty Wangye Mansion. As far as I am concerned, the playability of this block is not high, that is, when playing Duxiu Peak, I turned around by the way. There are few shops for eating inside, almost no (there are many on Zhengyang Road), and the shops inside are nothing more than those: gifts, specialties, jewelry, etc. It is easy to control the desire and impulse consumption, and it is easy to spend flowers. After all, there are indeed attractive places in terms of store layout and product dazzling. By the way, I forgot a category, that is, there are several shops in the national costume travel photography. Those who like this can come to consult.
Xingping Ancient Town
海海洋~之心Just returned from Xingping Ancient Town. The overall feeling of Xingping Ancient Town is satisfactory. The first time I came to Yangshuo, Guangxi, I saw such a beautiful scenery, and I was really excited. As the first tourist destination, Xingping Ancient Town is also recommended to take a walk. [View] First of all, Xingping Ancient Town retains the original ancient town atmosphere. Look at the ancient town under the Lijiang River and the mountains, and then taste the famous Guilin rice noodles and beer fish in the local area. It really has a special charm. [Cost-effective] Secondly, from Yangshuo Station to Xingping Ancient Town, the five-yuan bus is not very close, but it is really convenient for Yangshuo Station. [Fun] Finally, after coming out of Xingping Ancient Town, rent an electric car along the road by the Lijiang River (about 20 yuan, you can bargain), or take a boat on the Lijiang River, you can punch in the 20 yuan to take a picture, if you are lucky, you can also take a photo with the grandfather on the RMB (It takes money to spend), and then go forward to the nine horses painting the mountain, and finally watch the sunset on the mountain, very artistic. However, after walking through the ancient town of Xingping, a series of problems were indeed found. [View] First, the environmental problems in the scenic area, there are too many garbage in the scenic area, it seems that there is no professional cleaning staff to clean, and you can see a lot of garbage at the foot of the mountain. [Fun] Second, the sales problem, once you arrive at the scenic spot, a variety of elderly people recommend eating and attraction tickets, recommended eating is good, it is a bit annoying to sell scenic spot tickets and tickets, these elderly people are very persevering, do not sell a little things to go out and absolutely do not rest. Third, the bus station on Xingping Ancient Town is very small, it is a temporary one, not particularly standardized. Overall a very good experience!
