Weekend escape from Shenzhen, diving headfirst into the landscape painting of Yangshuo These two days and one night were truly healing! 🚄 Itinerary After work, take the high-speed train from Shenzhen North to Yangshuo or Guilin Station. Rest as soon as you arrive at night, and wake up to greet the upcoming journey～ Day 1: Ten-Mile Gallery → Yulong River bamboo raft ☞ Liu Sanjie In the morning, I rented a small electric scooter downstairs at the guesthouse. There weren’t many people, so you can bargain. Then start the cycling trip along the Ten-Mile Gallery 🏍️ Riding along the road, the breeze brushes your face, and the scenery along the way is breathtaking. Passing by the Big Banyan Tree, Butterfly Spring, and other attractions, although I didn’t go inside, taking photos outside was also very beautiful. Along the way, you can see many popular check-in spots! 📸 Many people were taking photos all the way; Guilin’s landscape is really photogenic! Next, go to the Yulong River to ride a bamboo raft. I chose the route from Shui'e Di Pier to the Comprehensive Pier. It’s safer to book tickets in advance, and remember to enter your ID information beforehand to increase your chances of getting tickets~~ When we went, there weren’t many people, so you can also buy tickets on-site! 🚢 A double raft costs 200 yuan, the whole trip takes about 40 minutes, passing through 4 rapids. Each rapid is super thrilling, with splashing water hitting you, cool and refreshing. Along the way, their staff take photos 📸 for 20 yuan each if you want a souvenir, remember to pose well! The scenery along the way is poetic and picturesque, with continuous green mountains and lush rice fields on both sides, as if entering a paradise, truly beautiful. 🌃 At night, we watched the large-scale live-action water and mountain show Liu Sanjie, which was quite interesting. 🎈 Little tips: 1. Be sure to do sun protection; the sun in Yangshuo is very strong. Bring sunscreen, a sun hat, and sunglasses. 2. When riding the bamboo raft, it’s best to chat more with the raft workers to learn about local customs. They will also help you find the best photo spots and enthusiastically explain the attractions. 3. When renting a small electric scooter at Ten-Mile Gallery, remember to bargain, usually around 30 yuan. This trip to Yangshuo was quite worthwhile, a great choice for a trip around Shenzhen.

Originating in the Jin Dynasty, taking shape in the Tang and Five Dynasties, perfected in the Two Song Dynasties, and flourishing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Three Lanes and Seven Alleys is known as the "living fossil of the Lane system" and the "Ming and Qing Architecture Museum."

Although it was drizzling, it couldn't stop tourists from taking photos in front of the banyan tree decorated into a heart shape. It is said that the intangible cultural heritage "Rouyan" is meat (flour with meat) wrapped in meat, and the taste is indeed good.

Includes a detailed route map + tips to avoid pitfalls‼️ 👉🏻Quick copy for lazy people 📍Navigate directly to [Jiuxia Village]! Park when you see the big banyan tree at the village entrance (free parking!). 🗺️A 5km loop trail, even a 3-year-old can complete it! Our family finished it in 3 hours, taking our time. 🌸Why recommend it? ✅ Truly zero difficulty: 195m elevation gain ≈ climbing 30 floors, only 10% unpaved road! I even finished it in sandals (don't follow my example 😅). ✅ Surprise scenery: You can overlook the entire Fangxin Lake from the top of the mountain! When going down through the bamboo forest, my kid kept shouting, "Mom, look! It's like the bamboo pandas eat!" ✅ Hidden fun: Let your child draw a little cow 🐮 with a hiking app by tracking their route! My kid felt a huge sense of accomplishment when we reached the end. 👣Mom-approved route guide 1️⃣ Starting point: the banyan tree in Jiuxia Village → walk along the paved road for 10 minutes to Jiangjun Ridge (this part is the most boring, but bear with it!). 2️⃣ The entrance to the unpaved mountain path is next to the utility pole! Grab a branch as a hiking stick, and you'll reach the first viewing platform in 5 minutes. 3️⃣ Secret to taking photos at Fangxin Lake 📸: The sunlight hitting the lake surface at 3pm is stunning! Posing your kid like they're rowing a boat is super cute. 4️⃣ The return route along Jianchang Avenue is entirely shaded! Playing hide-and-seek in the ruins of Xianfeng Town is a great way for kids to burn off energy! ⚠️Hard-learned lessons ❌ Never come on weekend afternoons! We had the mountain to ourselves on Sunday morning, but encountered 3 tour groups on our way back in the afternoon. ❌ There are thorny plants on the unpaved sections! Dress your kids in long pants (my son's leg got scratched and he cried for 10 minutes 😭). ✅ Bring mosquito repellent! Mosquitoes attack in groups in the bamboo forest. ✅ Bring digging tools for your kids! They can dig in the sand and play in the water by the side of Fangxin Lake. 🍔Food guide There are farmhouse restaurants in Jiuxia Village at the end of the trail! We recommend the bamboo rice and chicken soup, around 30 CNY per person, enough to make you stuffed. 📸Photo secrets ✔️ Stand on the big rock at Jiangjun Ridge for photos! Your legs will look 2 meters long. ✔️ Run along the wooden boardwalk at Fangxin Lake for action shots. ✔️ The light and shadows under the trees on Jianchang Avenue are amazing. 🙌🏻Random thoughts I was worried that my kid wouldn't be able to walk the whole way, but he was even more excited than me! He collected pine cones and chased butterflies all the way, and fell asleep in the car on the way back 😂. This route is perfect for lazy moms. The best part is it's free and not crowded! Next time, I'm planning to invite my friends for a picnic!

🩵DAY 1 We arrived at the Yangshuo B&B at 3pm, and started our leisurely stroll by riding our electric donkey at 4pm (the starting point of the ride is the Banyan Tree Scenic Area). The route 📍 (felt average 😌) I ignored it at first, but only remembered to take a look on the way back. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yulong River and surrounding mountains ⛰. 📍 (Not recommended😢) This is actually a national highway. There are so many cars that I was scared to death. I thought I hadn’t reached the Ten-mile Gallery when I reached the end (which was quite different from what I imagined) ➡Positioning📍Highly recommended😊The scenery along the way is amazing. It is especially enjoyable to ride when you reach the Qianguqing Scenic Area. There are few vehicles and the scenery is pastoral all the way. A check-in point on the way (highly recommended 😉), where you can see the mountains reflected in the afterglow of the sunset. 🩵DAY 2 I took a taxi to arrive at 1pm 📍 (it felt average 😌). It had the charm of small bridges and flowing water, but the location was quite remote and there was only one bridge. There were no other attractions around. I had to wait a long time for a taxi when I left. ➡Take a taxi directly to the hotel in Guilin and arrive at 5pm 📍, wow! This place is absolutely stunning! ! It is so beautiful that I am speechless🤩. The scenic area is very large, with mountains, water and lawns. You can also ride a hot air balloon and a blue car. The time from 5 to 7 is just right. It is not too hot and the light is beautiful. I was reluctant to leave until my camera ran out of battery😂 ➡Walk around at night 📍 (just average 😌), Zhengyang Pedestrian Street (not recommended 😢), a more commercial place, I feel like every city has such a place. 🩵DAY 3 📍 (Not recommended😢) It is in a park, and you can see it in less than ten minutes from Gate 3. It was so hot that I almost got a heat stroke. There were so many people, and the scenery was too ordinary. It is a place you don’t want to stay at after checking in. ➡Back to Guangzhou at noon🚄🥳 💗Summary (purely personal feelings) 👍🏻Must-see: Guihai Qinglan, cycling along the Yulong River, watching the sunset at Xiatang Pier 👌🏻You can go to: Gongnong Bridge, Fuli Bridge, East-West Lane 🫸🏻Not recommended: Cycling along Shilihualang National Highway, Elephant Trunk Hill, Zhengyang Pedestrian Street 🔅Since this trip was more casual and comfortable, I didn't have time to go to Xianggong Mountain and Yulong River bamboo rafting. I'll leave it for the next trip to experience it~💕🔚

🌈What I Know About the Big Banyan Tree Today at noon, I went out and rented an electric scooter to go to the Ten-Mile Gallery. We bargained it down to 40 yuan per scooter. The scooter owner even drew us a map, but it's better not to buy tickets for the Ten-Mile Gallery from the scooter owner because it's more cost-effective to buy them on-site and avoid pitfalls❌ Directly rode to the Ten-Mile Gallery 🌳Went to the Big Banyan Tree Scenic Area, bought tickets at the entrance for 15 yuan. It's just a walk around to see the big banyan tree, the place is not big. There's a bamboo raft ride inside that requires an additional 10 yuan ticket. We didn't plan to go in. On the way back, while eating a bowl of tofu pudding at a roadside stall, an auntie came over on a scooter and asked if we had been to the Big Banyan Tree or Jinshan Cave. We said no, but the auntie persistently recommended it to us. She offered 20 yuan for the Big Banyan Tree, including the bamboo raft, which is 5 yuan cheaper than buying tickets at the scenic area entrance. Seeing how hard the auntie was trying, we decided to go. The auntie took us through a small path on her scooter. There was another ticket point about 50 meters from the original scenic area entrance. We bought 2 tickets from the auntie (cash only) and entered through the side gate. Honestly, it's just to see the big banyan tree, and that's it😨. The bamboo raft just takes you to the opposite side, and after walking around, you exit. It's a very small place, and you can see the big banyan tree without going in. Avoid the pitfall❌

Guilin Yangshuo's Big Banyan Tree scenic area is a popular spot for internet celebrities. This banyan tree, which is over 1400 years old, has a circumference of about ten meters and is nearly 20 meters high. Its dense shade covers more than a thousand square meters. Surrounded by the excellent natural beauty of Yangshuo, the thousand-year-old banyan tree stands tall, attracting the attention of many tourists. Everyone marvels at it, amazed by the wonders of nature!

D5: The Ten Mile Gallery is the most beautiful part of Yangshuo's beautiful scenery, with peaks competing for beauty along the way, undulating, each with its own unique shape; the river is clear and bright, sparkling, with bamboo rafts swaying... Riding along the bicycle path, looking at the mountains and water, returning to nature, slowly appreciating the unfolding landscape of the Yulong River. Choose the bamboo raft drifting section that suits you according to your preferences, share the scenery with the mountains and water, and enjoy the gifts that nature gives to mankind. Follow the WeChat public account 'Junzhong Green Flower Love Travel' for more travel notes.
