Yangshuo's scenery is the best in Guilin! | The 500-year-old ancient Fuli Bridge is unrealistically beautiful

| The 500-year-old ancient Fuli Bridge is unrealistically beautiful. Yangshuo's free attractions, the 500-year-old ancient Fuli Bridge is so beautiful it seems unreal. I was lucky enough to encounter the warm winter sun in Yangshuo, and having been recommended the Fuli Bridge by a friend before coming, I reserved the golden hour before sunset for this place. Starting from West Street in Yangshuo, it's a 14-kilometer drive, about 20 minutes away. The last part of the road in the village is really narrow, thankfully it's the off-peak season for tourism. I wonder if it gets very congested during the peak season. Parking the car in the parking lot beside the bridge, the Fuli Bridge stands quietly in the sunset between the mountains and waters, turning those beautiful scenes I had seen before into reality. The ancient Fuli Bridge is located within Baisha Town, Yangshuo County, Guilin, and was built during the Yongle era of the Ming dynasty, with a history of over 500 years. The bridge is 30 meters long, 10 meters high, and 5 meters wide. It is the tallest and most rounded single-arch stone bridge in Yangshuo County (along with Yulong Bridge and Xiangui Bridge on the Yulong River, it is known as one of Yangshuo's three great ancient stone bridges). There is an ancient tree on each side of the bridgehead. The bridge's design is simple and majestic, and its reflection in the calm river water resembles a full moon. Standing on the bridge and looking into the distance, you can take in the entire view of the Li River's landscape, as if you are in the midst of a green and lush landscape painting. The Fuli Bridge is also a main pier for bamboo rafting on the Yulong River. If you have time, you can experience bamboo rafting. A raft can seat four people, and as it gently floats along the river, you are surrounded by green mountains and clear water. The river is so clear that you can see little fish swimming among the aquatic plants. All you can hear is the wind and the sound of the oars stirring the water, and your eyes, ears, and soul are melted by the expanse of green. Little tip: It's best to go before evening on a sunny day Transportation: It is recommended to drive or rent an electric bike to get there, just navigate to Fuli Bridge Fees: Free admission Parking is ten yuan per time Bamboo rafting is 290 yuan for a boat of four people, the round trip takes about 40 minutes, and the business hours are until about 5 p.m.
