Guilin’s landscapes are the best in the world, Yangshuo is the best in Guilin.
The peaks reflect the mountains and floating water, and there is no mountain or water without which one would be mesmerized.
Only if you have been to Guilin can you see the beauty of the landscape, and only if you have been to Yangshuo can you feel the essence of Guilin.
For three days and two nights, I walked through the mist and rain. I saw the mountains, the bridges, the water, the boats and rafts passing through the bamboo forest, and the travelers welcoming guests. It was as if I had experienced a dream, with mist lingering in it. , dust-free, only the beautiful scenery wandering leisurely, accompanying the time in the clear water and green mountains, slowly flowing with the wind and rain...
I held the child's hand and looked at the clouds and mist at the Jiuxian Bridge in the drizzle in the early morning. , I have seen the small bridge and the flowing water...
I stood on the Yangshuo Bridge and watched the water passenger ships coming and going. I don’t know whether the person standing on the bow of the boat is returning or just setting off...
I saw it in Eternal Love A gorgeous performance, as if I am Sanjie Liu, we are all lovers...
I found the most beautiful Yangshuo in Xianggong Mountain, where the mountain breeze carries a flamboyant fragrance, and there is the most beautiful water of Lijiang River , the most beautiful sunrise, sunset and misty rain...
I looked back at the 500-year-old Fuli Ancient Bridge, which was so beautiful and shocking to the past...
I was looking for the best angle to shoot 20 yuan in Xingping, There is an old man wearing a bamboo hat and casting a golden fishing net, as if he is carrying his decades of life and passing by...
Yangshuo, I am here, just like my nostalgic memories, in the dreams that turn over and over again. , I can never forget the misty river water, recalling it again and again, as if I have never left.

If you take a taxi, you can only park at the entrance of the scenic area. To enter the scenic area, you need to Pay 60 yuan for sightseeing fare.

After arriving at the Fengming High-speed Railway Special Bus Station, call the hotel and a car will pick you up for free. Or take a taxi via Jiuxian and get off at Xiatangzhai, then walk for a few minutes to reach the hotel.
As soon as we came out of the high-speed rail station, it started to rain.
Guangxi's unique karst landform, the continuous peaks are like spiers connected with each other, and the green is so green that it is eye-catching. The love that nature has given to Yangshuo is like the most amazing flower blooming on the top of the heart. People are extremely complimentary.
The rain gave Yangshuo a hazy, light mist, like a veil floating on the top of the mountain, like a door or a barrier between the fairy world and the human world, making it difficult for people to tell whether they were in the fairy world or the human world. I bought a bus ticket and the bus drove off without much waiting.In the car, I met a family of four who were also traveling from Guangzhou to Yangshuo. I casually asked them about their itinerary, but they didn’t plan ahead. Instead, they planned to go wherever they wanted. Anyway, it was all about beautiful scenery. Yes, Yangshuo is full of scenery, and it is also a kind of spontaneity to be able to walk around casually.
It is said that the rain in Yangshuo cannot be based on the weather forecast. It comes and stops at any time. It changes very quickly. It feels like the rain is about to stop on the road. I never thought that when we arrived at Fengming Bus Station, the rain would be even heavier. Big. I called the hotel and asked for a car to be picked up.
Xunlongting Hotel is located in the Yulong River Scenic Area, only about 4 kilometers away from the Guilin Eternal Love Scenic Area. In front of the door is the Yulong River, with small bridges and flowing water, full of greenery, and extremely beautiful scenery.
I made an appointment with a few friends to live together, so I booked a family suite with two bedrooms and one living room. The suite has a wide view. When you open the window, you can see the green bamboos and the mist-locked green mountains. The room has a 2-meter bed, two 1.5-meter beds, a tea room, a large balcony, a washing machine, a clothes drying rod, and a cabinet full of books, which adds a lot of convenience and fun to travel. .
The rain kept falling. Although the rain gradually became lighter, it didn't seem to stop. Seeing that it was getting late, I planned to go shopping on West Street, but it seemed that I couldn't go, so I decided to stay in the teahouse with my friends to drink. Tea chat.
For dinner, we ordered Yangshuo’s famous dish Beer Fish at the hotel. The private kitchen food feels much more authentic than the ones cooked outside, and the price is affordable. We also ordered the children’s favorite fried duck eggs with chives, private kitchen beef brisket, and baby vegetables in soup. , local duck pot and so on. Although the first day in Yangshuo was greeted by rain, because old friends gathered together to drink tea, eat and chat, the mountains outside the window looked particularly charming, and time fell like rain falling into the mountains, pattering. The mist is on the flowers, in the mist, and in the heart.
At night, it is as quiet as water, as if soft and silky satin touches the tenderness of your fingertips. In my ears I could hear the child's even breathing, and the night flowers outside the window caressed the window lattice, spilling in the faint light of the sky. Listening carefully, it seems like water drops are falling on the eaves. The night is getting deeper and the rain seems to have stopped. I am no longer willing to fall asleep and finally close my eyes.
The next day: Yulong River Old County, I'm waiting for you on the bridge
Xunlongting Hotel provides free breakfast, which is rich in variety and tastes very good. I have always been obsessed with Guilin rice noodles, so I ate Guilin rice noodles in the hotel.
The rice noodles are indeed chewy, and there are many more side dishes than those in Guangzhou. Even the children ate a full bowl.
After taking a short rest, we decided to wander around the Yulong River.
Although you can rent an electric car for transportation (40-60 yuan/day), but looking at the weather, it seemed like it was raining, so I finally decided to walk around.
Perhaps it was because of the rain yesterday that the flowers in front of the door looked particularly fresh and lively, with crystal clear raindrops still hanging on the petals. The bamboos by the river were lush green, and the clouds were silent and the water was flowing. Silently, people are reminded of the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River, and of the woman in red holding an oil-paper umbrella, looking for sentimental old dreams of prosperity, leaning against the railing and waiting quietly for the lotus to bloom.
We walked casually along the road until we reached a dock called Jiuxian.
The Yulong River is the longest tributary of the Li River, with a total length of 43.5 kilometers. This river in Jiuxian County is only a section of the Yulong River.
There is a bridge across the Yulong River. The bridge should be a relatively new one, connecting villages and fields. The rows of rice fields are glowing with green and gold, giving this early autumn a dazzling color.
Behind the village are mountains. The mountains are misty and misty, and there are immortals with otherworldly smoke and fire, like a scroll of splashed ink paintings.
Standing on the bridge and looking at the mountains, the mountains are surrounded by clouds and mist, and the mist condenses on the flowing water. The shadows of the trees by the river are as misty as smoke. Villagers are washing clothes while chatting without a word. As they rub and rub, they seem to be shaken off. The smoke and dust of the human world have become misty and sacred.
The rain began to drip again, and the fog in the mountains seemed to have become thicker. The scenery and people were so picturesque that it was hard to tell whether this was real or illusory.
A rain interrupted our stay. We originally wanted to take a walk in the village, but we had to give up the idea at this time. There are bamboo rafts passing by on the Yulong River every day. Even if it rains, it will be rainy or rainy. Even if you don't take the bamboo raft, just watching from a distance is still a feast for the eyes.
a journey of mountains and rivers.
Yiyezhou.
A breeze.
A traveler.
I just can’t tell, are the people on the ship coming back or leaving?
If you come to Yulong River, please help me take a look at the fireworks of the fairy-like village left in the world; if you come to Yulong River, please help me take a look at Yulong Bridge and Xiangui The picturesque scenery on the bridge; if you come to Yulong River, please help me feel the comfort of that bamboo raft rippling among the green mountains and green waters.
Then, I will have no regrets.
On the Yangshuo Bridge, boats came and went
I checked out at the hotel and contacted Mango.Meishu Hotel for pick-up. Because the scenic spot does not allow cars without a pass to enter before 7pm, it was a bit of a detour for the driver coming from Jiuxian County, so he asked the Xunlongting Hotel to take us to the entrance of the Yulong River Scenic Spot, and then took a Mango.Meishu car to arrive. hotel.
Mango.Meishu is a hotel with a European pastoral style. It is about a 5-minute drive from Yangshuo West Street .
Accommodation recommendation: Mango.Meishu
Check-in time: after 14:00 Check-out time: before 12:00
Address: No. 93, Longyue Road
has free afternoon tea, and you can also order floating breakfast and picnic.
recommendation index: 5 stars. The disadvantage of is that there is no elevator . Living on the 5th floor and carrying large luggage is a bit tiring, but the hotel staff can help.
Mango.Meishu is full of literary and retro style, adding a touch of fun to this rainy day. The front lobby is decorated with many old items from the 1980s, like a museum.
My room is located on the 5th floor attic. As soon as you enter the hotel room, you have an amazing feeling. Although the room is not big, it has everything in it. There is an adult bed on the second floor and a bed for children to play next to it. It is very suitable for families like me with children.
The balcony can see the river and the distant mountain peaks. For Yangshuo, where there are no high-rise buildings, living high will have a wider view and a more beautiful scenery.
I have been looking forward to the rain stopping early, otherwise it will be inconvenient to travel with children and the travel time will be wasted. The weather was also great, so at 2pm, when the rain gradually became less intense, I made an appointment with my friends to climb the TV Tower together.
Yangshuo TV Tower is a very niche and unknown attraction. From the tower, you can overlook most of Yangshuo County. It takes about 15 minutes to walk from the hotel. Turn right at the traffic light and enter from the trail next to the post office. You will see the route prompts.
leaves another regret.
The people in Yangshuo are warm and hospitable. Seeing me with my children, many people reminded me not to climb the TV Tower on rainy days because the roads are slippery and there are many potential risks for children to climb.
So I used a taxi app to call an express train to divert to Yangshuo Bridge. (The fare from West Street to Yangshuo Bridge is 8 yuan)
Yangshuo Bridge was built in 1920 and stands on the upper reaches of the Li River. The bridge is 207 meters long and is the longest road bridge in Yangshuo so far.
Standing on the bridge and looking at the scenery, I saw green mountains and green water in front of me. Bamboo rafts crossed the bridge and cut through the river, leaving a long ripple behind them. Which dock are they heading to? ?
From the steps at the head of the bridge to the riverside, looking at the river from under the bridge gives you a different vision.There is a row of cruise boats docked along the river, which has a different mood from the bamboo rafts in the river. The bamboo rafts on the river reveal the elegance of beautiful mountains and clear waters, while the cruise boats show a modern style.
I don’t know when the sun actually peeked out of the clouds. Under the clear wind and light clouds, stepping on the clear water by the river, even my worries seemed to have gone away with the river.

Lingnan was once known as the land of Baiyue, a place forgotten by the Central Plains. These Yue people each had their own castes and were scattered into large and small tribes. Historically, they were called "Baiyue". After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he wanted to include Baiyue in his territory. But Baiyue, a barbarian land, is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is difficult to follow up with troops and food. Qin Shihuang sent soldiers to attack Baiyue. After three years of fighting, they could not capture Baiyue. So he spent another three years digging Ling Canal to connect the Xiangjiang River, Lijiang River, and Pearl River. He replenished troops and food through waterways, thus regaining Baiyue. Yue, established Guilin County in Guilin.
When approaching the Guilin Eternal Scenery Area, you will first walk through the chronological avenue composed of 16 totems. Looking back at these totems is to read through the thousands of years of Guilin's history.
At the gate of Guilin's eternal scenic spot is the world's largest statue of a singing fairy - the statue of Liu Sanjie - Liu Sanjie is the incarnation of the true, kind and beautiful children of Bagui.
The scenic spot also has Sanjie Flower Street, Yangshuo Ancient Village, Prince Jing’s City, Gexian Square, Temple of Wealth, Gexian Temple, No. 3 Secret Realm, No. 4 Bay, Sleepless City Bar, etc.
Prince Jing’s Mansion City was restored based on the residence of the first feudal prince in Guilin, “Mo Toast”. In 1392, Zhu Yuanzhang's grandnephew Zhu Shouqian came to Guilin to build the Motoushi Mansion. This Motoushi Mansion was built 34 years earlier than the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is known as "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, and you will know Guilin after reading all about the royal city." From ancient times to the present, the number one scholar in all dynasties of Guangxi has come from the royal city of Motoushi.
Yangshuo Ancient Village has created Guilin’s unique farming and urban life style: market street, style street, grandpa’s wine jar, grandma’s cakes, dad’s toys, mom’s cakes... It makes people feel like they have returned to their parents’ generation. , I really want to see the differences and changes between their lives and ours, which always evokes the deepest nostalgia in my heart.
Visiting Guilin Eternal Love with your children is the most correct choice. There are many performances outdoors in the scenic area. Because there were too many people in the campfire dance, we couldn't join in the fun, so we went to Bay 4 to watch the jet ski performance.
There were already a lot of spectators on the shore. The children were full of curiosity about the "flying man" who could walk into the air. They kept asking me, "Why can that man fly?" In fact, flying man is not surprising. The secret to making a flying man fly depends on the tightness. A motor boat follows closely behind.
4 Bay has fine white sand. Although there is no sea in Guilin, there is a beach in Qianguqing. Digging in the sand and touching the water with bare feet, it doesn’t really matter whether you are at the beach or not. The sea is in your heart, and the place with sand and water is the sea.
Guilin Eternal Love has many people with special skills, such as magic whip, soft skills, catching the ball with the head, swallowing fire, spitting fire, etc. Although each person's performance only lasts a few minutes, they don't know how much time it takes to perform such skills. How many years of training?
You can watch the performances in the scenic spot according to the time points, such as "Guozhuang Carnival", "Ethnic Flash Mob Show", "Mo Tusi Recruiting a Son-in-law", "Folk Juggling" and other dozens of major performing arts shows. Each performance is not just a performance. It is also a display of Guilin's national culture. While watching the performance, it is also educational and entertaining, and you can learn from it.
Spend the rest of the time playing games and shopping in the ancient village, which is also a leisure way for parents and children to roam.
There is a haunted house in the scenic area. This is a place that even I dare not enter. Fortunately, children under 1.2 meters tall are not allowed to enter, which gave me a reason to refuse a child who was clamoring to go in and have a look. The
water development project is a challenge of speed and passion, stability and courage. It is a great pleasure for adults and children to participate together.
Wonderful Street, phantom space, invisible cabin, horizontal house, inverted house, slanted house, mirror maze... It is full of fun, take pictures and experience it for yourself, look horizontally, vertically, upside down, every perspective is interesting It's a novel feeling.
The most attractive thing for children is the No. 3 Secret Realm, which can be said to be a paradise for children to play.
3 Secret Realm is an indoor project covering tens of thousands of square meters. The amusement area has dozens of amusement equipment such as the Magic Jungle and Magic Shadow, as well as high-tech experience projects such as the Living Riverside Map during the Qingming Festival, Robot Rubik's Cube, and Dinosaur Kingdom, as well as book bars, cafes, and food areas...
Book Bar in the Secret Realm Near the entrance, there are thousands of books for adults and children, including picture books, fairy tales, etc. that children like. There are hard seats and soft seats inside, which is full of atmosphere. It is far away from the play area and has a clean environment, which is very suitable for parents and children to read. Over time, every character turned into a fluttering butterfly, flying in the eyes and hearts of my children and me.
After playing the Robot Rubik's Cube, Singer Happy Singing, Catching Dolls and other projects, the children developed a strong interest in the Naughty Castle. This is a safe place suitable for younger children to play, and parents can also let go and relax. .
Carousel, magic throw, pirate ship... There is no limit on the number of times, no additional payment is required, you can play as many times as you want, and as long as you want.
There are also interactive VR games. When you play with your children, you feel as if you have become a child yourself. The joy is not only on your face, but also in your heart.
The Secret Land also has a food area. Various types and flavors of food, delicious and not expensive.
We made an appointment to watch the large-scale song and dance "Guilin Eternal Love" at 8pm. The program is directed by Huang Qiaoling . It uses advanced sound, light, electricity, holographic and other high-tech means and stage machinery, and hundreds of actors perform passionately. In the three-dimensional space of water, land and air, it sings the legend of truth, goodness and beauty of the Bagui land through time and space. , bringing the Bagui culture hidden under the mountains and waters of the 800-mile Lijiang River into everyone's sight. It is called a must-see performance of a lifetime.
Watching the show is a feast for adults. The child was too tired from playing in Secret Area No. 3 and fell asleep after sitting on his seat, which just allowed me to enjoy the show quietly.
The performance of "Guilin Eternal Love" is divided into scenes such as "Guilin Legend", "Flying Song of the Earth", "Eternal Ling Canal", "Lijiang Love Song" and "Looking for Liu Sanjie".
"Legend of Guilin" tells the story of General Fubo and Diecai Fairy. Although it is a fairy tale, it is connected with the scenic spots in Guilin. General Fubo and Fairy Diecai refer to Fubo Mountain and Diecai Mountain in Guilin.The water of the Lijiang River transformed from the silk scarves of the colorful fairies has become the most beautiful river and water that embellishes the scenery of Guilin.
Since the Qin army conquered Baiyue and the Central Plains and Baiyue people have mixed, civilization has followed. Today, on the land of Guilin, ethnic minorities such as the Zhuang, Yao, Dong, Miao, and Yi live in harmony. People live in harmony. Every March 3rd is the largest song fair day in Guangxi. These ethnic minorities gather in Yangshuo to dance. Draw a picture of "The Flying Song of the Earth".
Ling Canal fulfilled the Qin army’s dream of subjugation. Since ancient times, the water from the Li River introduced by Ling Canal has also nourished thousands of Guilin people. However, the hard laborers who built Ling Canal endured suffering and lost their lives. , buried in the long river of history. A bowl of Guilin rice noodles relieved Qin Jun's homesickness so much! Watching a scene from "Eternal Spiritual Canal", I hope that we will never forget the hard work of the ancients.
Sanjie Liu's singing voice is like a lark. As time goes by, she composed a song called "Lijiang Love Song", which has resounded throughout the ages.
Who is Sanjie Liu? It’s you, it’s me. Even though the story has endured for a long time, it is still polished as if it were fresh. Because, inside the lover, there is you and me.
After watching Guilin’s Eternal Love, I am still immersed in the story for a long time and cannot extricate myself. It rained suddenly again, as if it wanted to wash away the excitement in my heart. Fortunately, I used a taxi app to call an express bus and returned to the hotel smoothly. Although I ate some snacks at the scenic spot, I was hungry again. The hotel's bread and pastries had long been sold out, and I didn't want to gain weight from a big meal in the middle of the night, so I ordered takeout in the room. Fortunately, someone delivered the food at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.
Day Three: Floating Breakfast
Maybe I was too tired from playing. I slept dreamlessly with my child all night, and woke up naturally. My mood and spirit were very comfortable. When I opened the door to the balcony, I saw a light mist hanging over the mountain. The sky was a little cloudy and uncertain as the wind blew gently, but the time was still so beautiful, the mountains and waters were still green, and I couldn't bear to waste a minute or a second.
made an appointment with Mango.Meishu Hotel for floating breakfast, and then took the car arranged by the hotel to go to Xueshiling Riverside Hotel.
Snow Shiling Riverside Hotel
Address: No. 1, Mushan Village, Yangshuo County, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region
Tel: 4008281661; 18677331168
Near Liu Sanjie Song Fair, near Lijiang Scenic Area Upstream Water Route
In front of the hotel, the Li River flows gurglingly. The green bamboos on both sides of the bank are facing the wind, making the green leaves rustle, as if playing a hymn of autumn, a love song of wind, and a poem of water. Someone's bamboo raft was docked by the river, as if waiting for someone in the misty rain.
Floating breakfast is actually held in the swimming pool. Sitting on a transparent boat, you can see the sky above your head and the water below your feet. The boat is swaying leisurely, just like your mother's rocking boat when you were a child.
The breakfast is rich in variety, including drinks, milk, bread, pasta... The price is 99 yuan, which is enough to satisfy several people.
The most beautiful spot in Yangshuo: Xianggong Mountain
It rains intermittently. Although I have been fully prepared for the unpredictable weather in Yangshuo, I still hope that it will be sunny every day. Trapped in the hotel due to the rain, I was finally ready to go out and try my luck.
We, 2 adults and 1 small person, packed a car and prepared to set off to Xianggong Mountain and Fuli Bridge. Xianggong Mountain is a scenic spot recommended by all Yangshuo people after coming to Yangshuo. It is called the most beautiful scenic spot in Yangshuo.
The rental fee was negotiated at 120 yuan. The driver was a female driver and drove a seven-seater car. It was more than enough for the three of us. It is said that the cost of chartering a car can still be negotiated. The basic price is between 90-120 yuan, depending on the car model and the driver's mentality of making money.
The phone number of the female driver of the 7-seater car we rented: 13877312622
It takes about 40 minutes.
The reason why Xianggong Mountain is called Xianggong Mountain is because although the water of the Li River from Guilin to Yangshuo is winding, it only turns a big bend here. The angle where the water and the mountain complement each other looks like the angle of the ancient prime minister. Official title, and the prime minister was called Xianggong by the ancients, hence the name.
The Lijiang River in this section of Xianggong Mountain is also known as the "First Bay of the Lijiang River".
I can't wait to see the true face of this "No. 1 Bay of Li River" and see with my own eyes how unique this place that everyone in Yangshuo praises is.
The ticket to Xianggong Mountain is 60 yuan. In fact, the mountain is not too high. The vertical distance is only a few dozen meters. It only takes 15 minutes to climb the mountain. Even for a 4-year-old child, it is not very strenuous to climb up.
Walking on the mountainside, looking up at the surrounding scenery, I felt that Xianggong Mountain was just like that. The mountains, forests and fields were not much different from ordinary mountain scenery. I was still worried about the 60 yuan ticket along the way. Only two words echoed in my heart: Not worth it.
When I reached the top of the mountain, my eyes suddenly lit up, which was in huge contrast with my previous mentality. I had never seen such a beautiful water bend. The clear water was like a bay of silk wrapped around the mountains, and the endless stream of bamboo rafts were like a river on the land. The traffic flow is usually non-stop. If you say this is a fairyland, I will believe it. It's just the people in the water bays and mountains that add a bit of earthly fireworks to this fairyland.
Although there is only one angle, Xianggong Mountain can shoot the sunrise and sunset at the same time. The sunrise in Xianggong Mountain in the morning is shot with backlight, and the sunset in the evening is with smooth light. Both are beautiful.
Some people have seen Xianggong Mountain with clouds all over the sky, some have seen Xianggong Mountain under the bright moonlit night, some have seen Xianggong Mountain with mist and mist, some have seen Xianggong Mountain with lingering rain, all year round, there is morning dew and dusk frost, Xianggong Mountain. The mountains change with the passing seasons, and the scenery polished by the years adds an indelible aura.
I stood on the viewing platform, watching the rolling water of the Li River, flowing from the Qin Dynasty to the present world. How many people have stood in the same position as me and have seen this great river and mountains. How many past years have been left behind in the dust of history. , no one can escape the fate of time, but now, after seeing this poetic, picturesque, dreamlike and beautiful scenery, my wish is fulfilled.
,500-year-old Fuli Bridge
Fuli Bridge is about 10 kilometers away from Yangshuo County. It is an open old bridge. If you borrow a bamboo raft to pose for a photo, you need to give the villagers 10 yuan.
Address: Zhengfang Village, Guanqiao Village Committee, Yangshuo County, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region
There is a parking lot at Qiaotou, where there are places to eat and shop.
Fuli Bridge is a rare old bridge with a history of more than 100 years in Yangshuo. The stone steps on the bridge have been polished by time and become somewhat uneven, revealing the mottled traces of time. The two big trees at the head of the bridge have been dependent on the stone bridge for countless years. In this cool early autumn, their still bright branches and leaves form a gorgeous umbrella cover, protecting the bridge and people walking on it from wind and rain.
The past events and people who built this bridge can no longer be found. They have long gone with time. However, over the past 500 years, the ancient bridge has changed from a new bridge to an old bridge. People have stepped on it and their footprints have been damaged by wind and frost. erase. How many people, how many pairs of feet, have crossed from one bank to the other. The old bridge has witnessed it, and the big trees at the bridge have witnessed it, but they can only remain silent, just like the clear blue water under the bridge, which never sleeps and never knows how to flow. How many years.
The village is very quiet. Even if there are people living here, even if there are vendors selling goods by the river, and even if the children are playing in the water on smooth stones, it still makes people feel peaceful and peaceful. Perhaps this quietness and stability come from the infection of the old bridge. In addition to the two old trees on the bridge, some tender ivy has recently grown. From the cracks in the bridge, they absorb the brilliance of the sun and the moon and the protection of the old bridge. They cling to it and hang down, making the bridge look somewhat delicate. The
bridge is a round arch bridge in the shape of a semicircle. Although it has been affected by the years, it is still as strong as ever.Looking at the bridge from under the bridge, the shadow of the bridge is reflected in the clear water, and the bridge forms a landscape shaped like a full moon. No matter which angle it is, it is stunning and stunning.
Stand on the bridge and look at the bridge. The bridge is at the bottom of your feet, calm and silent. The gurgling clear water under the bridge carries the story of the bridge and flows to the distance with no end. People in the village cannot tell the exact age of the bridge. They only know that the bridge was there when they moved here. Generation after generation of people have left, but the bridge remains. I wonder if the clear water under the bridge has brought the story of the bridge to a far away place. More people know the existence of the bridge and travel thousands of miles to meet it and tell their feelings. The bridge is immortal and remains silent.
It’s just that the bridge is no longer just a bridge for crossing the river. People built a more convenient road upstream of the bridge. The bridge is no longer just used to cross the river, but only serves as a witness and a kind of scenery, displayed in the green fields. superior. People watch the bridge from different angles. People hold bamboo rafts to pass through the bridge hole. People sit on the bridge, swinging their legs and showing sweet smiles. People touch the bridge body and guess its age. People are coming. He left again and again, always with a different face, making it difficult for Lao Qiao to tell who was who.
The bridge is always there, whether winter comes or spring comes, or you come to live with me...
Fuli Bridge is a historical witness. It does not take long to visit it. It is still early and even the sun does not know where it is. The head emerged from the gloomy fog. Just like the sudden gorgeous weather, my heart felt relaxed and happy. There was still a long time before my 8 o'clock high-speed train, so I discussed with my friends and asked two other friends to go to Xingping Ancient Town together to see the scenery on the back of 20 yuan. Although Xingping Ancient Town and Xianggong Mountain both belong to Xingping, they are in different directions. You need to go back to Yangshuo County and then to Xingping Ancient Town.
After picking up two friends in the county, we set off to Xingping Ancient Town. In this way, after visiting Xingping Ancient Town, I could take a bus to the high-speed rail station and return directly to my hometown in Guangzhou.
Because there were more tourist attractions and more people, we added another 120 yuan to the driver to take us to Xingping Ancient Town.
0 RMB attractions
Xingping Ancient Town is a small town with many people, all of whom come here to see the scenery on the back of the 20 RMB.
The driver took us to Chaobanshan Pier with ease. From the angle of the pier, we can easily see the pattern behind the 20 yuan - the reflection of the yellow cloth. However, I compared it again and again and found that this angle is not the best angle to shoot the reflection of the yellow cloth. Although the boats passing by on the river are At that time, the scenery was still picturesque, but the angle was not exactly the same.
So, we walked back along the road. There were "private viewing decks" enclosed along the way. They all said that their angle was the best angle for the 20 yuan landscape pattern. However, these private viewing decks, There is no charge. Tourists are free to borrow the location to take photos, but businesses only make money from tourists who do not have cameras but want to take professional photos. One photo is 20 yuan, and there is no charge for 2-inch photos.
I tried several locations, but was never satisfied. Finally, I walked to the "First View of the Li River" viewing platform and found that this angle was very close.
At this time, the sun occasionally peeks out of the clouds, giving the water of the Lijiang River a layer of golden light. Some sections of the water surface have dried up, revealing a water bed with green grass. The land in the middle is only 5-6 meters away from the riverside. The Li River fishing fire show is on the grass here.
The Lijiang River fishing fire has a thousand-year history in Yangshuo. The old fisherman in a raincoat, the heron docked at the bow, and the fishing lanterns are the standard features of the Lijiang River fishing fire.
Hitting the water with a shoulder pole and casting a net... This thousand-year-old fishing action has now become a kind of performance. To watch, you need to pay a shooting fee of 60 yuan, and you need to make an appointment in advance. We could only watch from a distance on the shore, watching the old man put on various poses for photographers to take pictures, and we felt a little bored.
There are also some smart people who let the private bamboo rafts parked on the shore be sent across the grass 5-6 meters away to take pictures. Each person is given 10 yuan. If there are many people, the boat owner will send them there, saving the 60 yuan. cost.
However, this situation depends on luck. It is said that some people have been scolded for being patted. However, everyone likes to capture the most beautiful scenery in their cameras. It is up to you whether you watch this performance that represents Yangshuo folk customs or not.
saw the 20 yuan RMB pattern, and the clock was already pointing to 7:00. We wanted to go around the ancient town, but we were afraid of missing the bus, so we had to give up and asked the driver to take us to the Xingping Ancient Town Bus Station.
