[May Day: Buck the Trend! Escape the Crowds and Head to Baise for a Date with Nature~]

🌿[May Day: Buck the Trend! Escape the Crowds and Head to Baise for a Date with Nature~] You have to understand, everyone! While others are packed like "sticky rice dumplings" in Guilin, I'm having a private tour of the karst secrets in Baise 🤫 Underground river rafting with sparkling lights ✨ Waterfall water curtain cave, traveling through time and space 🌊 Goose Spring sunset, dyeing the sky into an orange sea... Quickly pack this private guide into your backpack and unlock the niche ceiling with me! 🍂[Immersive Experience Checklist | Heartbeat Acceleration Warning] ▫️ Gulongshan Grand Canyon 🚣: 1.5 hours of dark river cave rafting is too wild! Kayaks glide through the three-layered caves. When sunlight leaks in from the cave entrance, the entire rock wall is shining with emerald light~ The moment you rush through the Gulong Waterfall at the end, the screams penetrate the entire valley! ▫️ Tongling Grand Canyon 🌿: When walking in the rainforest, you suddenly encounter a 188m-high waterfall smashing into the pool! Stand in the Water Curtain Cave and reach out to catch the water splashes. The cool mist hits your face, and you feel like your whole body is "charged" by nature 🔋 ▫️ Goose Spring Sunset 🌇: Be sure to squat for the farmer leading the cattle across the bridge at 18:30! The sunset dyes the rice fields golden, and the bamboo rafts float over the blue, glowing "glass water". Any casual shot is like an oil painting~ Remember to look down when paddling the bamboo raft, the small fish in the water will follow you 💦 ▫️ Quyang Lake Cycling 🚲: Who can refuse the free "Little Guilin" secret? Rent a bicycle and stroll along the lake. The windmill mountain and karst peaks are reflected on the lake. Ride to the Baimeng Pier and spend CNY 50 to take a boat to fish for river fresh food 🦐 The freshly baked tilapia sprinkled with lemon leaves is so fragrant that you'll lick your fingers! 📅[4 Days and 3 Nights of Roaming Rhythm | Full of Relaxation] Day 1⃣️ Nanning → Jingxi (2.5h drive) 🌿 In the afternoon, plunge into the Goose Spring B&B "Quan Bian Xiao Zhu". Pushing the window open reveals green hills and clear waters~ Grab your camera and rush to take pictures of the sunset. Remember to give the uncle who leads the cattle a bottle of water, he will slow down and let you press the shutter more often 📸 🏨 Accommodation: Goose Spring B&B (CNY 80 per person, it's so healing to fall asleep listening to the croaking of frogs) Day 2⃣️ Grand Canyon Walking Day! ⏰ Morning: Gulongshan Grand Canyon Rafting (CNY 188 for ticket + rafting, remember to bring a waterproof mobile phone bag!) ⏰ Afternoon: Tongling Grand Canyon (CNY 95 ticket, wear non-slip shoes! The stone road under the waterfall is a bit slippery) 🚗 Transportation: CNY 50 per person for a chartered car for the two Grand Canyons. The driver will wait for you at the entrance of the scenic spot, which is more worry-free than taking a taxi. Day 3⃣️ Quyang Lake Lying Flat Plan 🌞 Spend the whole day by the lake: ride a bicycle to watch the windmills spin 🎐 take a boat to chase egrets 🦢 set up a tent in the motorhome camp (CNY 60 per person). In the evening, cook a pot of river prawns freshly caught by the fishermen, drink ice-cold beer with the lake view, this is what a holiday should be like~ Day 4⃣️ Citywalk-style Return Trip 🍜 You must slurp a bowl of sour soup noodles for breakfast! The sour bamboo shoots are so fragrant that your soul will be out of your body. Add a string of grilled pig eyes (bursting pulp warning!) to challenge your taste buds~ 🛍️ In the afternoon, go to the vegetable market to buy mango dried fruit and five-color glutinous rice. The rainbow rice for CNY 6 a serving is amazing for taking pictures! Avoid the "Internet celebrity snacks" in Jiuzhou Ancient City, which are expensive and disappointing 💣 🍽️[Baise on the Tip of the Tongue | Eat All the Fireworks for CNY 150] ✅ Rice noodle roll with yellow peel sauce: The rice skin is so soft that it can transmit light. Pour the sweet and sour sauce and swallow it in one gulp! ✅ Fried small fish in Quyang Lake: Sprinkle with salt and pepper until the bones are crispy. You can eat a plate for CNY 15! ✅ Zhuang sour food: Guava with chili salt is amazing! Green mangoes and pineapples are soaked in sour water, it is definitely a refreshing artifact~ 💡[Practical Tips | Must-see for Students/Lazy People] ▫️CNY 800 per person for the whole journey: accommodation + tickets + transportation + food, no pressure for budget travelers ▫️Dress: quick-drying clothes + sandals (you will get wet in the canyon), bring a thin coat in the evening ▫️Photography: Use backlight to take silhouettes of Goose Spring sunset, and turn on portrait mode for Tongling Waterfall for better photos ✨[Final Shoutout] The landscape of Baise seems to have been pressed with a "slow motion button". Every breath is the fragrance of grass and trees, and every scenery is like a movie screenshot~ This May Day, be a smart "reverse player" and soak your time in the landscape of Baise~
