Sunsets are free, and in Guilin, you can experience an orange-hued ocean.

If you don't know where to watch the sunset, come to Mingyue Peak (West Peak) in Chuanshan Park, Guilin! With a 360-degree viewing angle, it's the closest you can get to the sunset, and it's super easy to climb, taking only 10–15 minutes—a blessing for novice hikers! Here, you can not only overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire city of Guilin but also experience the wonders of nature. When the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles on you, the warmth and comfort are truly beyond words. Most importantly, it's completely free! Free! Free! Important things must be said three times! 🌄Sunset Viewing Guide: 1. Best Viewing Time: It is recommended to arrive at the summit 30–60 minutes in advance so that you have enough time to find a good spot and enjoy the changing colors of the sky before sunset. Generally, sunset is around 6 p.m. (check the weather forecast for the specific time). 2. Photography Tips: The north pavilion is an excellent photo spot where you can capture a panoramic view of the city and the sunset. If you want to take portraits, face the setting sun at the top of the mountain and let the light shine on your face for atmospheric photos. Remember to bring a power bank; there are so many beautiful scenes, don't let your phone run out of battery! 3. Outfit Suggestions: The light at sunset is relatively soft, so wearing light-colored clothes will make your photos look better. For example, a white dress or a light blue shirt will complement the sunset backdrop. 🍱Food Recommendations: Climbing mountains consumes energy, so of course, you need to bring some delicious food to replenish your strength! Prepare some barbecue and fruit with your friends, brew a pot of hot tea, and enjoy the food and the sunset at the summit. The feeling of happiness will be overwhelming! After descending the mountain, you can also visit the nearby Tiexi Food Street and try Guilin specialties such as luosifen (river snail rice noodles), Guilin rice noodles, and sweet osmanthus cake, taking your taste buds on a journey as well. 🚗Transportation Guide: 1. Bus: Take Bus No. 16, 23, 31, or 33 to Chuanshan Bridge Station and walk 5 minutes to the scenic area. 2. Car: Navigate directly to "Chuanshan Park." There is a parking lot in the scenic area, making parking very convenient. 💕Practical Tips: 1. Although the climb is not difficult, it is still recommended to wear comfortable sneakers to avoid slipping. 2. There are many mosquitoes on the mountain, so remember to bring mosquito repellent. 3. Be a responsible visitor, do not litter, and protect our nature. Life is busy, don't miss the sunset. Come to Mingyue Peak and experience the most beautiful sunset in Guilin with me!
