Stunning Scenery｜Every frame of the Li River is a Chinese ink painting etched into your DNA!

“The river is like a green silk ribbon, and the mountains are like emerald hairpins.” It was only when the bamboo raft broke the reflection of the yellow cloth that I truly understood Han Yu's poem—Here's a 3-day, 2-night immersive guide to unlock the fairyland behind the 20 RMB banknote! --- 🚩【Three Must-Do Experiences】 1️⃣ Xingping Li River · The RMB View Get on the first bamboo raft at 7:00 am! The karst peaks reflected in the morning mist look like ink paintings, and egrets take flight as old fishermen cast their nets. Get ready to snap away!🔥 Photography tip: Ask the boatman to stop at the spot featured on the 20 RMB banknote. Use a 0.5x wide-angle lens to frame the mountains, water, reflections, and bamboo raft. The raw photos will be stunning! 2️⃣ Yulong River Drifting · The Ultimate Bamboo Raft Experience Choose the "Jinlong Bridge - Jiuxian" section! Be prepared to get wet as you go over 9 small dams. The water will splash over your feet, and the bamboo on the banks will brush against your hair. 💡Hidden gem: Tip the boatman 20 RMB, and he'll stop at the Xianguibridge and tell you the story of Liu Sanjie's elopement! 3️⃣ Xiangong Mountain Sunrise and Sea of Clouds Get to the top of the mountain by 5:30 am to secure the best spot! The first bend of the Li River forms an omega shape below, and as the morning light paints the mountains gold, you'll hear gasps of "wow" in different languages—This isn't just watching a sunrise; it's witnessing Earth's color palette come to life!🎨 --- 💡【Hard-Earned Tips to Avoid Pitfalls】 ✅ Book bamboo raft tickets 3 days in advance! The on-site queue is at least 2 hours long. I almost fainted from the heat at the dock. ✅ Bring a waterproof phone case! A girl in the front row lost her phone to the river. ✅ Rent an electric scooter in Jiuxian! 30 RMB/day. Ride along the Ten Mile Gallery and stop to take photos whenever you like. ✅ Wear quick-drying pants! The bamboo raft seats are wet, and jeans will turn into water bags. --- 📸【Hidden Gems for Photography】 ▫️ Nine Horses Fresco Hill Riverside: Hire a local water buffalo as a model for idyllic photos (5 RMB to the villagers). ▫️ Moon Hill Climbing Base: Shoot upwards to frame the moon within the cave. The silhouette at dusk is incredibly mysterious. ▫️ Xingping Ancient Town, Laozhai Mountain: Climb to the top 1 hour before sunset and capture martial arts movie-like scenes among the rocks. ▫️ Outfit tips: Indigo tie-dye dresses > Hanfu > Denim outfits (contrasting colors stand out against the landscape). --- 🍜【Li River Delights】 ▪️ Beer Fish: A must-try in Yangshuo West Street! The fish is infused with the aroma of Lijiang beer and is deliciously spicy. ▪️ Guilin Rice Noodles: 5 RMB for 2 taels! Pot-roasted with gravy and pickled beans. Enjoy it like a local by eating it on the roadside. ▪️ Glutinous Rice Candy: Freshly made in Xingping Old Street. The sesame-coated malt sugar stretches and sticks to your teeth. --- 💌 A Truly Touching Moment: During the evening performance of Impression Sanjie Liu, six hundred fishermen lit up the river with torches. Suddenly, it started to rain. The torches burned stubbornly in the rain, and the audience spontaneously raised a sea of umbrellas—At that moment, I felt a lump in my throat: This flame, passed down from ancient times, has never been extinguished! --- 🌟【Essential Guide】 🎫 Tickets: Li River Bamboo Raft 128 RMB/person | Yulong River Drifting 255 RMB/raft (2 people) 🚌 Transportation: Take the three-star boat from Guilin Mopan Mountain Wharf directly to Yangshuo (4-hour scenic route). 🕒 Time-saving route: Guilin → Elephant Trunk Hill → Li River Cruise → Xingping → Xiangong Mountain → Yulong River → Ten Mile Gallery 📌 Hidden gem: Learn cormorant fishing from the fishermen. Hundreds of birds take flight the moment the bamboo pole hits the water! The beauty of the Li River transcends filters! Who wants to join me next time to experience the misty Li River?🌧️ (Attached are nine photos of me drenched by the bamboo raft's splashes).
