Nanning's Top Spot for Photos｜Blue Sky Architecture at Xiangsi Town for Instant Stunning Shots

Here comes the Nanning photo check-in guide📸! This underrated city hides many perfect photo spots, with Xiangsi Town as the top pick, instantly transporting you to an ancient-style film scene～ 📸【Must-Visit Photo Spots in Xiangsi Town】 1️⃣ Central Lake View Loft Standing by the lake to capture reflections is amazing! Recommended to come one hour before sunset, when golden sunlight shines on the flying eaves and upturned corners, making every shot look like an ancient-style photo shoot. There are also stone pedestals by the lake specifically for photos, so no worries about angles. 2️⃣ Covered Corridor The red corridor pillars paired with green tiles are super photogenic. It’s suggested to wear light-colored Hanfu or qipao; candid shots while walking create a great atmosphere! When I visited, it wasn’t crowded, so you can shoot freely. 3️⃣ Main Street Ancient Buildings Cluster The whole street features Ming and Qing dynasty style buildings, with gate towers and carved window lattices as perfect backdrops. There’s a second-floor teahouse (about 30 RMB per person) where you can get an overhead shot of the entire street. 📍Address: No. 31, Xiangsi Lake East Road, Xixiangtang District, Nanning City ⏰Open all day! Best lighting is recommended from 3 to 6 PM 💡My Photo Tips: - Bring a reflector! Faces tend to get shadowed in building shade - Hanfu rental: Two shops at the west gate of the town (98 RMB/set including makeup and hair) - Recently added oil-paper umbrella wall and lantern alley, don’t miss them 🍵 Nearby Food: A 10-minute walk to "Zhuangxiang Boji Banquet" is super authentic; must-try are the five-color glutinous rice and lemon duck! About 50 RMB per person, you’ll be so full you’ll need to lean on the wall～
