Zhang Xinyu didn't deceive me! It turns out that Guangxi is an underestimated tourism powerhouse

Guangxi is in my top 5 scenic provinces in China. Before coming to Guangxi, I thought it only had Guilin. After several visits, I discovered just as 'National Geographic' says, 'Guilin's landscape is the best under heaven, but every part of Guangxi is like Guilin.' Not only does it have the only nearshore island where you can see whale pods, but it also boasts the world's most beautiful highway and Asia's number one transnational waterfall. No wonder Zhang Xinyu also loves to travel and enjoy the waters and mountains of Guangxi. Over the years, I've collected many of Guangxi's little-known beautiful sights. If you come to Guangxi, you definitely don't want to miss them～ 1️⃣ Detian Transnational Waterfall It can be said to be the most worthwhile place to visit in Guangxi, and in my opinion, it's the most beautiful waterfall in China. Zhang Xinyu has just been there recently. Personally, I think it's much more beautiful than the Huangguoshu Waterfall, and right next door is the Vietnamese waterfall, which is quite magical～ 2️⃣ Goose Spring In my opinion, it's the best of Jingxi's eight scenic spots. The spring here never dries up throughout the year, the water is clear to the bottom, surrounded by mountains, especially in summer, it's like a paradise on earth～ 3️⃣ Weizhou Island If you want to go to the seaside and ride an electric scooter around the island with your girlfriend, you can do it in Beihai, instantly feeling like you're back in Taiwan (where we met), with a youthful vibe coming right at you. 4️⃣ Mingshi Pastoral It's perfect for idling away two days here, with the most beautiful pastoral scenery in Guangxi. You can also taste the special Saigon coffee on the way, and the view from the observation deck at sunset is absolutely stunning. 5️⃣ Haokun Lake I've revisited Haokun Lake, with its vast and clear waters, it's like a forgotten paradise on earth, a casual snapshot is a beautiful landscape painting～ Zhang Xinyu's hiking route: No ticket needed, navigate to Wai Tun, go up from the basketball court for 10min to reach the place overlooking Haokun Lake, the scenery along the cliff edge is all breathtaking, like jade embedded in the mountains. 6️⃣ Xianggong Mountain The ancients did not deceive me, it turns out that the 'Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains' painting really exists! If you go to only one place in Guilin, it must be Xianggong Mountain, you must choose a good weather, everything you see is picturesque. 7️⃣ Jiu Zhou Ancient Town Known as the hometown of hydrangeas, Jiu Zhou has been making hydrangeas for over a thousand years. It hasn't been overly commercialized, surrounded by green mountains, and the local snacks nearby are a must-try. 8️⃣ Dashiwei Tiankeng In addition to Jingxi's karst landscape and the red culture theme of the city area in Baise, there is also the world's largest sinkhole group in Leye, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while having coffee in a cliffside café. 9️⃣ Tongling Grand Canyon It's like coming to the end of the world, the canyon is known as the 'Earth's Crack', especially the waterfall, which looks like a scene from a fantasy martial arts drama. The ancient Longshan Grand Canyon next to it is worth visiting together. As a future son-in-law of Guangxi, my mission is to share the beauty of Guangxi with everyone!!

I took the photo of a lifetime on Weizhou Island!!!

I took the photo of a lifetime on Weizhou Island!!!|||Sisters, the weather forecast on the island is really inaccurate It was supposed to rain all day today, but it didn't come at all Sometimes sunny, sometimes cloudy Shiluokou in the morning, Dripping Water Danping in the afternoon After entering Shiluokou beach, head to the right and keep walking towards the reef, the spot for taking photos is quite inside, the path is not easy, try to wear comfortable shoes The places with green moss are also very photogenic The off-season is really fun, no queues for anything, it's truly awesome

Weizhou Island Travel Guide

1. To go to Weizhou Island, be sure to purchase ferry tickets in advance on the WeChat public account "Laiyouba". The lowest ticket price is 150 yuan, and if you buy tickets late, you may only have the option of 180 yuan or two to three hundred yuan cabins. You can choose one-way or round-trip tickets. If you are not sure about the return time, be sure to purchase a ticket before returning, otherwise a 10% handling fee will be deducted when refunding. I was once charged a handling fee for a ticket refund. 2. On the ship, you can go to the deck without purchasing an additional ticket. About an hour after the ship sets sail, the third deck will be opened for free. 3. Renting an electric car on the island is extremely convenient for travel. Some places quote fifty or sixty yuan, but I bargained with the landlord to 30 yuan a day. The farthest route only takes twenty to thirty minutes. 4. Touring according to the picture route is very user-friendly, thanks to the netizen who shared it. 5. The place where I stayed was near the Xia Luo Kou, and it only took two to three minutes to walk to the beach to watch the sunset, which was very convenient. 6. The best place to watch the sunrise is at the Colorful Beach. But be sure to ask the locals the day before to find out if there will be a sunrise the next day. We were unable to see the sunrise that day due to thick clouds. The locals said that if you can't see the stars at night, the likelihood of a sunrise the next day is small. 7. Be sure to try the green bananas sold by the locals, they taste especially delicious. 8. The Cliff Bookstore has a pleasant view, but you need to spend at least 98 yuan on a juice package to enter. For friends who like to take photos, this is a good choice, as you can take many beautiful pictures. 9. The round-trip ferry ticket to Weizhou Island costs at least 300 yuan, and the ticket to the island is 98 yuan. Children over 1.2 meters pay half price, which is 49 yuan. 10. For tasting seafood, it is recommended to go to the seafood market where locals in Nanwan buy seafood. The owner of the homestay recommended a certain stall, but I forgot the specific number. Afterwards, someone will lead us to have it processed, and the taste of the restaurant where it is processed is also quite good, giving a one-stop service feeling. Overall, this trip to Weizhou Island was very pleasant, with comfortable accommodations and enjoyable play. I also joined the ranks of friends from Chongqing that I met on the ship. In the evening, we rode electric cars to Nanwan Street to buy seafood, which I would never dare to do alone. They followed my route for the tour, and I was responsible for navigating and leading the way, which was a lot of fun. If you have any other questions, feel free to message me privately. I will spare no effort in sharing all I know. The seawater of Weizhou Island is very clear.

Island Diary | Weizhou Island Travel Guide (may contain dissuasive content)

Sharing some tips while also helping everyone avoid potential disappointments. It's not that Weizhou Island is not nice, it's just not as great as described online 😅 Transportation✈️🚢 Flights from Hangzhou to Beihai are scarce and at inconvenient times, so I flew to Nanning, played for a day, then took the high-speed train to Beihai to catch a ferry to the island. Not flying directly to Beihai makes the journey more complicated... The island is quite small, mainly e-scooters➕tourist buses. It's cost-effective to charter a tourist bus when in a group. Accommodation🏠 Booked a homestay near the Colorful Beach for the sunrise, everything else was ok, but the breakfast was too perfunctory... It's been a long time since I've had such a sloppy breakfast (if you don't mind, you can PM me to ask). Food🍽️ 🔶Nanning 🔸Gui Xiaochu: Tastes good👍 🔷Weizhou Island (for the convenience of the elders, we dined near the scenic spots) 🔹Jiefu·Vietnamese Beef Pho: Can't believe this was my favorite meal! Nice environment, delicious💯 🔹Jingye Restaurant: Scenic spot, ‼️you can't see the sunset here, only the afterglow🫠Average dishes, but the environment wins. 🔹starry Starry Coast: Seaside scenic spot, average taste, located at Shiluokou Beach, where you can eat while watching the sunset, good for taking photos. 🔹Chicken Auntie·Coconut Chicken: Average coconut chicken, compared to the ones I've had before, I personally find it overpriced and in small portions. 🔹Daydream Fusion Restaurant: Passionfruit ribs are delicious (don't go to the coconut seller next to it towards the church direction, I bought a bad one, and when I found the seller within three minutes, he cursed and said I didn't buy it from him / 'See You Tomorrow' mango ice on the same street is okay🉑️) 🔹Homestay Lunch: The homestay bought seafood and processed it, which was the best seafood meal on the island🤤Banana chicken is delicious🐔 🔹Fruits: Jackfruit and bananas are delicious, there are also longan and starfruit trees near the homestay that you can pick and eat. Itinerary📝 day1⃣️ Nanning 🟡Three Streets and Two Alleys Similar to Wide and Narrow Alleys 🔵Night Cruise on Yong River Suitable for accompanying elders, young people can skip it day2⃣️ Weizhou Island 🟡Colorful Beach The beach is small, the sunrise is nice, the rock walls are good for taking photos, ⚠️be careful 🔵Nanwan Street Coastal, with bars, shops, and trendy restaurants, some shops are quite interesting, worth a stroll after dinner, but the road is narrow and prone to traffic jams, hard to get a tourist bus if it's too late😤 day3⃣️Weizhou Island 🟡Crocodile Mountain A small hike, not tiring, the seaside is picturesque, clean, and clear. 🔵Dishui Danping Didn't go because of the rain 🟡Shiluokou Beach The sand is white, good for watching the sunset! Many water activities available. day4⃣️Weizhou Island 🟡Catholic Church The church and its surroundings are blocked off at every intersection to collect tourist bus fees, which is really unsightly❗️There's a small path you can navigate on your own, if you can't find it, you can pay a local 10 yuan to guide you. Ordinary church➕back garden. Next to it is a street with restaurants, shops, and coffee shops. 🔵Shell Beach Less crowded, feels okay! Really found some beautiful shells🐚 day5⃣️ After four days on the island, because of 🪖drills... tired, lay like a corpse for a day, got the return ticket in the afternoon and went back to Beihai. But I really have to say, there's too much trash on the island🫣

I sincerely recommend joining a tour group when visiting Weizhou Island in Beihai during the Qingming and May Day holidays

Nowadays, many people prefer independent travel, and I do too, but not only is it tiring, it also requires a lot of research into travel guides beforehand, including booking hotels and attractions. Moreover, during holidays and peak tourist seasons, it's impossible to make reservations, and you end up just lying in a hotel for several days. Therefore, during holidays and peak tourist seasons, joining a local pure-play small tour group is really enjoyable and not very expensive, and they can help you avoid pitfalls! However, when signing up for a tour, you must carefully check the company's business license and such, and not be tempted by low prices! Now, the prices of attractions and hotels are very transparent, and you can easily find out the prices by checking. Definitely avoid choosing options that are obviously too cheap, as no one is doing charity unless they are family or friends. ❣️First-time tips for visiting Beihai 🎬Don't go to the seafood stalls near Yintan Beach to eat seafood. The seafood there is expensive, scarce, and not tasty, which will disappoint you. I suggest going to Qiaogang Style Street, where there are many seafood stalls that are super affordable and delicious. 🎬When processing seafood, be sure to guard against seafood swapping. It's best to take a photo to remember the appearance of the seafood, and make sure to poke a small hole at the bottom of the bag to drain the excess water before weighing. 🎬Don't take private tricycles or motorcycles as these modes of transport have no safety guarantees and you can easily be scammed. Never trust their recommendations for food and hotels. 🎬Before coming to Beihai, be sure to check the weather in advance. If there is heavy rain, it is not recommended to travel, especially to Weizhou Island, as the ferry may be suspended due to heavy rain. 👉Classic 4-day 3-night itinerary in Beihai👈 ✔️Day 1 🫡Join the group in Beihai - pick up from the airport/train - check into a Beihai hotel🧜‍♂ ✔️Day 2 🚗Full-day driver and guide with a private car ➡️ The First Beach in the World·Beihai Silver Beach⛱ (South Pearl Soul Sculpture) ➡️ Beihai Old Street·Arcade Building Group·Haiti Street ➡️ Internet-famous Liuxia Village ➡️ Beibu Gulf Square⛵ ➡️ Check into a Beihai hotel ✔️Day 3 🚢Weizhou Island (including round-trip ferry tickets and island fees) full-day independent travel - (Recommended: Main Landmark Square·Catholic Church·Marine Sports Base·🐊Crocodile Mountain Volcano Park·Dishui Village Dishui Danping) - Stay at a Weizhou Island hotel or guesthouse🏨 ✔️Day 4 Full-day independent travel - (Recommended: Wucailou Beach to watch the sunrise🌄·Shell Beach🏖) - Take the ferry back to Beihai City in the afternoon - Drop off at the airport/train station.

Volcano Crater

The Beihai Volcano Crater Park is located on Weizhou Island in Beihai, which is the largest volcanic island in China. The lava erupted by the volcano, after ten thousand years of wind and rain, still leaves those astonishing traces of the years. The vibrant and colorful living corals are a major feature of Weizhou Island; on the beach, there are many weathered white coral fragments and shells gathered together to form a long scenic line. It is said that when the sea is calm, you don't need to dive to see living corals in shallow waters.
