Guangxi is truly an underrated gem, with every scene here just as breathtaking as 'Guilin'. I've been to many provinces in China, and Guangxi definitely ranks in my top three! 🥳 🌊Sanmenhai: The awe it inspires is beyond words! When the weather is good, the water glows!! Paired with the magical caves above, it's like a real-life version of 'Ghost Blows Out the Light'! 😱 🏞Detian Transnational Waterfall Scenic Area: This is the waterfall I used to see on calendars when I was a kid! In my mind, waterfalls should look like Detian, but I've never seen such a beautiful one in person. Coming to Guangxi, I realized that the waterfall from the calendars is right here! 🤩 🌌Haokun Lake: Only by hiking to overlook can you see such beauty! Isn't this Guangxi's 'Nam Co'? So stunning! You must climb to the top, the view of Haokun Lake will give you the answer! 👏 🐎Qinglong Lake: This might be an abandoned scenic area, so it's quite niche and not crowded. But it's like Guangxi's 'Xinjiang', with streams, grasslands, herds of cattle and horses, as well as milky water surfaces and ducks. Lie on the lawn and relax to your heart's content! 😄 🌾Mingshi Pastoral: The charm of Mingshi Pastoral lies in quietly enjoying the elegance of the fields. There are no grandiose scenes here, but it will definitely relax your mood. Especially the morning jog, with a bit of mist, feels like being in a fairyland. 🧚 🏔Tongling Grand Canyon: After visiting Detian Waterfall, I thought I wouldn't be shocked by the sight of waterfalls again, but Tongling Grand Canyon brought me even more surprises! And it's super photogenic! 📷 🕳Shegeng Chuandong: Right next to Sanmenhai, just a few minutes' drive away. This is a naturally formed large mountain cave, with many uniquely shaped stones inside, truly magical! Don't miss it when you visit Sanmenhai! 🤗 🌸Tongyu Bay: The filming location for 'The Journey of Flower', also known as Anping Fairy River. The whole scenic area requires a boat tour, and you'll visit an island in the middle, giving you a sense of entering a peach blossom utopia, enlightening and uplifting. 🤩 🌳Qingxiu Mountain: Although Qingxiu Mountain is in the city of Nanning, promise me to spare a day for it, okay? The variety of plants here compete in beauty, and the garden planning is also particularly gorgeous! 🤩 Guangxi, waiting for you to explore! 🎉

✨My friends, let me tell you about a mysterious place, recommended by the goddess Zhang Xinyu herself—Guangxi Baise's Haokun Lake! 😍 From the moment I heard its name, I was filled with curiosity and anticipation. 🌫️That day, I drove through a thick fog, winding along mountain roads, covering more than 140 kilometers overnight, just to witness its beauty with my own eyes. To be honest, at that moment, I was truly amazed by the natural wonder created by Mother Nature! 😲 💧Haokun Lake, like a dazzling pearl, is nestled among the mountains. The water is clear and transparent, with sparkling waves, as if it could cleanse one's soul. Standing by the lake, I felt as if I could hear the breath of nature, feeling its warmth and inclusiveness. 💕 🏞️The lake and mountains reflect each other's beauty, each view is like a beautiful painting. I strolled along the lake, enjoying the comfort of the breeze on my face, and admiring the beautiful scenery in front of me, truly feeling that the trip was worthwhile! 👣 🌈Friends, if you also want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and find a peaceful and beautiful place, then Haokun Lake is definitely a good choice! Believe me, it will bring you unexpected surprises and emotions! 🌟

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!!

As soon as winter arrives, people want to go to warm places, enjoy delicious food, and experience the happiness that food brings. But warm places are often crowded, so is there a town that is warm, not crowded with tourists, and has delicious food? Indeed, there is. The town is not crowded with tourists all year round. In winter, the average temperature is 22℃. It is a little-known winter getaway town. It's really warm, with the highest temperature even reaching 28℃. It's warm like spring in winter, and the key is that there are few people and even fewer tourists. You can stay in any hotel, eat any food, and enjoy any scenery. Although it's low-key, the town is actually quite large. It is the largest prefecture-level city in Guangxi, with stunning karst landscapes everywhere. With a land area of 36,300 square kilometers, the scenery is very beautiful, not inferior to Guilin at all. It is a forest city, also known as the "Capital of the World's Sinkholes", boasting the world's most beautiful scenery. The world's largest and most beautiful natural water bridge, Asia's highest single-stage waterfall, a lake comparable to Namtso, and numerous peaks, sinkholes, caves, underground rivers, waterfalls... This land has long embraced world-class wonders. Moreover, the town is very livable. It is more comfortable than Beihai, a third or fourth-tier city, and is an ideal place for retirement! The life of the elderly in the town is really comfortable. At the same time, the facilities for the elderly are constantly being improved. There are many social welfare centers, and health and medical care are guaranteed. This is the hometown of mangoes in China. The local Guiqi mango has a tender and cheese-like flesh, and the juice is as sweet as honey. Moreover, it is very fragrant. One bite will make you miss it for a year. Because it borders Yunnan, Guizhou, and Vietnam, it integrates the flavors of these three places, and you can taste multiple flavors in one city. Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty, any flavor you can think of can be experienced in this town, and there are even many dark cuisines that are surprisingly delicious. Especially a barbecue, which is more fierce than the Northeast and more daring to eat than Yunnan. There is nothing you can't think of or see. The principle of eating barbecue locally is "as long as it's not poisonous, you can eat it". What grilled snake, grilled pig's eyes, grilled pig's whip, grilled ladder, wild and daring to eat! Take a bite, the pig's eyes that can burst instantly, although it requires psychological construction, but it's really delicious! You can eat it three times a day without getting tired, but not many people know about this delicious food. The town also loves to slurp noodles. There are tens of thousands of types of noodles, and you can't stop eating from morning to night! From the moment you wake up, there are ten thousand kinds of rice noodles rushing towards you. Almost everyone in the town is a master of slurping noodles, especially a bowl of roast duck noodles, which is heavenly! It is said that Yunnan is wild in eating, and here is no less. There are all kinds of unseen snacks, which are really dazzling. Pig blood sausage, fried kidney rolls, and strangely colored lamb soup, strange black zongzi, horse rolls, numb duck, the appearance may be some "dark cuisine", but it contains infinite deliciousness. This is Baise, a super fierce city. If you can accept strange and weird ingredients, then Baise is actually very cute, very beautiful, very delicious, and very worth a visit. There is not much commercial atmosphere here, only countless mountains and alleys. Here, it is used to be close to nature, to fill up with food. Time passes slowly in Baise. Strolling in the nearby alleys, eating some snacks, you will miss it for a long time after leaving.

Novice white hiking experience. Route: 7:50-12:00 🚌 Bus departs from Nanning and arrives at the foot of the scenic area. 12:30-19:00 🚶🏻‍♀️ Take photos while hiking, the whole journey is about 12 kilometers. 19:30-23:30 🚌 Return trip to Nanning. Weather: ☁️ Around 22 degrees, not very sunny, a bit windy 🍃 Energy supply: two bottles of mineral water + 🍞🍫🥒🍌🍊, your favorite snacks... At the beginning, it was all concrete road, but the slope was quite steep, and I was a little out of breath. Following the team slowly, I won't be left behind. Along the way, I saw many mulberry fields planted by villagers. After climbing the mountain, the road became a pebble road with stones of all sizes. The slope was flatter than before. Slowly, I could see the panoramic view of Haokun Lake. The scenery was extremely beautiful, and the bird's-eye view was really spectacular. I held my phone all the way and took crazy pictures. The weather was very good that day, and it was comfortable to climb the mountain with a breeze. After reaching the top of the mountain, the team leader cooked tomato and egg noodles on the mountain platform. Maybe because we were hungry, everyone rushed to eat together, and the noodles were delicious! After the meal, everyone was very conscious of packing up the garbage generated from the meal and taking it away, which was great! After replenishing energy, continue to move forward, feeling like every few steps unlock a new perspective. Taking out your phone and snapping a photo can easily become a National Geographic magazine cover. Looking at the beautiful scenery, even though the journey is long and your feet are tired, your mood is still very pleasant. Finally, we reached the downhill section, which was quite challenging for me because my shoes didn't have good traction and I kept slipping. Fortunately, the team leader lent me his shoes to help me get down the slope. The whole journey took about 6 hours, and my legs were weak from the downhill trek. The team leader kept encouraging me, saying that the finish line was very close! In the end, I completed the entire journey on foot without taking a 50 yuan motorcycle ride from the villagers! I applaud myself 👏👏👏.
