I've been to Qingyuan five times, and here's a guide I've put together.

My friends! If you haven't added Qingyuan to your May travel list 🧾, I'm going to cry! This treasure destination, blessed with mountains and rivers, lets you avoid the crowds and unlock many ways to have fun. I've worked hard on this guide for you 👇. Let's go! 🚗 Transportation Guide Who doesn't love that it's only a 1-hr direct trip from Guangzhou! 🚄 It's super convenient to take the high-speed train to Qingyuan Station. From there, take a taxi straight to the attractions. Driving is even more liberating, and the scenery along the way is so beautiful you'll want to stop and take pictures 📸. Casual shots along the way make for atmospheric blockbusters! 🏞️ Must-See Fairyland ✅ Gulong Gorge: A summer water paradise! 🌊 At the foot of the Glass Grand Canyon are green hills and clear waters. Walking on the transparent glass is both nerve-wracking and exciting! If you want to play in the water, be sure to experience the Yuntian Glass Overlord. Standing on it and overlooking the canyon will give you an adrenaline rush! The rafting is also amazing. You'll scream all the way down, and the splashes of water will keep you cool 🥳. ✅ Lianzhou Underground River: A "cool world" hidden underground 🌌. Take a boat and travel through the karst caves. The stalactites are super dreamy under the lights! The temperature in the underground river is several degrees lower than outside. Coming in May is like being in a natural air-conditioned room ❄️. Taking pictures here gives you a mysterious filter, and the photo quality is 100%! ✅ Yingxi Peak Forest: A real-life "Little Guilin" 🖼️. Rent an electric scooter and slowly travel through the peak forest. Every shot you take is like a scene from a movie 🎞️. You can also experience kayaking. Paddle on the calm water and take in the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. 🍜 Foodies, rejoice! Qingyuan chicken is a must-try 🐔! The poached chicken has smooth skin and tender meat. Dip it in ginger and scallion soy sauce for a heavenly bite! There's also the fragrant spareribs steamed with black bean sauce 🍖, which are soft, glutinous, and flavorful. Serve it with a bowl of white rice and you'll finish the whole plate! The bamboo rice from the roadside stalls is also super fragrant, with the fragrance of bamboo. Every bite is full of happiness 🥰. Finally, have a bowl of water chestnut cake, which is sweet, refreshing, and the perfect way to cut through the richness! 🏡 Accommodation Recommendations If you want to lie down and enjoy the mountain view, I highly recommend the B&Bs near Gulong Gorge 🏡. The view of the greenery from the window is super healing! If your budget allows, the hot spring hotels in Lianzhou are also great. Soak in the hot springs and watch the stars ✨. This is the right way to vacation! My friends! Qingyuan in May is calling you! Hurry up and invite your friends to embrace the mountains and rivers and enjoy the delicious food 🥳. You'll regret it all year if you miss it! Let's go 🦆!!!
