Cruise through the Two Rivers and Four Lakes, and find a billion points of romance on the Li River at night!

Two Rivers and Four Lakes is the most representative city card of Guilin, consisting of the water feast formed by Fir Lake, Banyan Lake, Osmanthus Lake, Wooden Dragon Lake, Li River, and Peach Blossom River. 'Thousands of mountains stand wild, and one river embraces the city flow,' the Two Rivers and Four Lakes are that embracing water system. Water as a green silk ribbon, mountains like jade hairpins. The old name of Peach Blossom River is Yang River, which is a major tributary of the Li River. Wooden Dragon Lake is the only man-made lake among the four inner lakes, named after the nearby Wooden Dragon Cave. Fir Lake boasts the landmark Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas of Guilin, with the official residence of Li Zongren on its south bank. Banyan Lake and Fir Lake, both artificially excavated in the Song Dynasty as the southern moat of Guilin city, are collectively called Yangtang, a popular check-in spot. There is the ancient Banyan Twin Bridge made of white marble, and the stunning crystal glass bridge... Watch the landscape in the morning and enjoy the clouds at dusk, and see the lights when night falls. The resplendent Xianyao Tower, the colorful Liberation Bridge, and the doubly romantic Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas all take on a different look. Visiting the Two Rivers and Four Lakes is not only about taking a boat ride to appreciate the exquisite scroll of 'Guilin's landscape tops those elsewhere,' but also about enjoying a Guilin opera performance! Tang Jingsong, the last governor of Taiwan, with all his passion, sadly could not hold onto the tail of Shanghai, and could only express his feelings through the art of singing.
