[2025 Yangshuo Attraction] Travel Guide for Fuli Bridge (Updated Feb)

Fuli Bridge has become a popular check-in spot on social media in recent years, known for its artsy vibe. Initially, I thought it was just an ordinary stone bridge, but it turns out to be one of the three ancient bridges in Yangshuo, built during the Ming Dynasty over 500 years ago. Truly impressive! 👍 Standing on another bridge, you can see the semi-circular reflection of the entire Fuli Bridge; standing on the bridge itself offers a different view. Looking into the distance, you can see layers upon layers of mountains ⛰️. Taking photos in the morning gives a mysterious and hazy beauty, highly recommended ❤️ 🎯 Yangshuo One-Day Itinerary Suggestion You can join a one-day tour or drive yourself. The county is not large, and you can cover the main attractions in a day. Recommended order: Yulong River Scenic Area/Take a bamboo raft at the pier — Moon Hill Scenic Area — Fuli Bridge — Xianggong Mountain — Xingping Ancient Town — Wulong Spring Sunset

Getting There - A well maintained cycle path is available which leads to Fuli Bridge. Approximately 13km from the main West Street. A steady climb on the way there, but a nice downhill cycle on the way back. Attractions - The journey to Fuli Bridge is pleasant, the destination is a tourist trap which I would avoid. A once beautiful part of Yangshuo, it is now a small and busy bridge complete with people singing KTV on large speakers they have attached to the bridge. Lots of rafts available for a cruise, but with so many that it didn’t seem relaxing at all. Food & Restaurants - A couple of very basic restaurants surrounded by your usual stands selling water, ice cream and chocolate. Shopping - You have to pay to park and pay to use a raft. It’s a shame you couldn’t pay to turn down the KTV. You can get some beautiful pictures at Fuli Bridge, but there are much better places around to do this without the hassle of a tourist trap. #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Going north along the Yulong River, you will see a very simple and beautiful bridge, Fuli Bridge. The Fuli Bridge is located in the upper reaches of the Yulong River. It is about one hundred years old and is one of the three ancient bridges in Yangshuo. Fuli Bridge has a beautiful appearance. There are one old tree in the bridge. The reflection in the water is like a full moon. Surrounded by green hills and surrounded by green water, the bridge is the best place to watch the scenery of Yulong River. One side of the Forli Bridge can swim and play with water. Many tourists and locals are playing. Unfortunately, we don't have a swimsuit. Otherwise, I really want to experience the feeling of soaking in the Yulong River. It must be cool! There is a small restaurant on the other side of Fuli Bridge, where you can photograph the bridge hole of Fuli Bridge, which is also a good place to shoot portraits.

Fuli Bridge, a 500-year-old stone arch bridge spanning the Yulong River, is a symbol of Yangshuo’s rich history. Surrounded by lush bamboo groves and rolling hills, the bridge offers a peaceful spot for contemplation and photography. The tranquil river below reflects the beauty of the surrounding landscape, creating a postcard-perfect scene. Nearby, the ancient town of Fuli is worth exploring for its traditional Chinese paintings and local crafts. A visit to Fuli Bridge is a journey back in time, offering a serene escape into Yangshuo’s past. Travel Tips: Best Time to Visit: Early morning for beautiful light and fewer visitors. Nearby Exploration: Visit the nearby Fuli Town for traditional art and souvenirs. Photography Tip: Capture the bridge and its reflection in the still waters for a stunning shot.

I read a lot about avoiding Yangshuo, and it is indeed a very commercialized tourist spot. I didn't choose the ferry or bamboo rafting. The best spots on the ferry are official and require a 4-hour ride, and bamboo rafting would mess up my hair and makeup, haha. My parents didn't want to bother either, so I directly parked at the Old County Wharf (no parking fee), rented two electric scooters, each costing 30. We rode all the way to Fuli Bridge, stopping to take pictures at beautiful spots along the way. It was so photogenic! Fuli Bridge is a must-visit! Many shots are taken on the bridge, but the view from under the bridge looking up is even more stunning. The ancient charm of Fuli Bridge is overwhelming. After visiting Fuli Bridge, we rode back to the Old County to return the scooters (we were tired), then drove to the free swing spot. Navigate to Huatianghai Yulong Legend Hotel, go down the road opposite, and we happened to catch the sunset, feeling like we were in a landscape painting. After enjoying the view, we went straight back to Guilin for dinner—resolutely not spending money in Yangshuo, haha!

🌈My recent trip to Guilin Yangshuo made me deeply feel the unique charm of this place. Although the weather was sometimes overcast and sometimes there were showers, Yangshuo after the rain seemed like a summer fairyland that stepped out of a comic. 🌿My exploration journey started from Yulong River Fuli Bridge, which is definitely a spot you can't miss! 📸 🌉Fuli Bridge, this ancient bridge filled with Chinese charm, stands quietly between the landscapes of Guilin. Next to the stone embankment under the bridge, bamboo rafts are neatly parked, as if waiting to set off at any moment. After every shower, the blue sky and white clouds set off the bridge, and occasionally a bamboo raft gently passes by, creating a scene so beautiful that it intoxicates the heart, just like a scene from a comic reappearing. 📍Location guide: Just navigate to 'Fuli Bridge', and you can easily find this healing place. 🚗Traffic tips: Self-driving or renting a small electric scooter are both good choices, and there is also a parking lot nearby, making travel super convenient! 🅿 💰Cost information: This beautiful view is completely free! Come to Yangshuo and experience this comic-like summer time with me! 🌈

There is a poetic ancient bridge over 500 years old at the source of the Yulong River, the Fuli Bridge, a lesser-known and free attraction in Yangshuo. Small bridges and leisurely bamboo rafts passing under the bridge create a scene so beautiful it almost seems unreal! 🌳Attraction Introduction Fuli Bridge is located 12 kilometers away from Yangshuo County, 500 meters upstream of the Yulong River. It is a single-arch stone bridge, 30 meters long, 5 meters wide, and 10 meters high, built during the Ming Dynasty, with a history of over 500 years. The bridge's aesthetic design and its reflection in the water resemble a full moon. 🚢About the Boat Ride 🎫Ticket Price: The round-trip leisure ride for four from Fuli Bridge Wharf to the San Cha Kou is priced at 358 yuan per raft. ⛵️About the Bamboo Raft: The bamboo rafts at Fuli Bridge Wharf are for four people, not the popular two-person rafts on the internet. They are very suitable for family outings with children, less crowded, and tickets are easier to purchase. 📷About Photography ✅From the wharf to Fuli Bridge, you will pass a bridge, which is a good spot to take photos of Fuli Bridge and capture a bamboo raft coming back. (Picture three) ✅In front of Fuli Bridge, there is a place with steps, which is a great spot for taking photos of both people and the bridge. (Picture one) ✅From the top of the bridge, you can capture the Yulong River, bamboo rafts, and the distant fields and mountains, offering a stunning visual effect reminiscent of a landscape painting. (Picture four) ✅There are also cormorant fishing shows on bamboo rafts here, and those interested in photography can take some shots. ✅Those with drones can take aerial shots, and skilled operators can even fly through the bridge arch for a spectacular bird's-eye view. 🚗About Transportation 🎫Ticket Price: Free 📍Detailed Address: Yulong River Scenic Area, Guanqiao Village Committee, Zhengfang Village, Yangshuo County, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region 🚗Travel Tips: It is recommended to drive yourself or rent an electric scooter to get here. There is a parking lot at Fuli Bridge Wharf, and the parking fee is 10 yuan per vehicle. Taking a taxi here is convenient, but it is very difficult to find one for the return trip. 🍃Travel Suggestions ✅Upstream of Fuli Bridge, there are shallow and calm waters suitable for playing in the water, perfect for summer fun. ✅I visited in September, and the weather was still very hot and sunny, so I recommend taking precautions against sunburn and mosquitoes. ✅It is recommended to choose good weather for your visit, as it will greatly enhance the experience and the quality of your photos.

| 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.

It's particularly storytelling, especially romantic💗! 🛵Transportation: It is recommended to rent a Thai electric car, it is very cheap now, 30 yuan for a day, the price can be bargained! Don't rent expensive on weekends and holidays! 📍Location: Navigate to 'Fuli Bridge', it is a bit far from the center, and it is also a few kilometers away from the Ten Mile Gallery, arrange your time reasonably⏰ 🎫Tickets: Free, there is a parking lot nearby, 20R/person 💡Tips: It is best to come when there is sun in the afternoon🌞, the scenic spot is not big, you can see the beautiful landscape painting of Guilin on it, it is worth it.
