    "There are many people riding electric bicycles to sell low-cost ferry tickets before arriving in the scenic spot. Guangxi attractions are like this. Detian Waterfall and Yangshuo Shili Gallery are chaotic. Push a wheelchair should not enter the scenic spot. You can see Elephant Trunk Hill on Binjiang Road. It is inconvenient to enter the scenic spot on the steps."
    Guilin.Downtown/Elephant Trunk Hill/Two Rivers And Four Lakes
    >100km from Ningyuan

    "There are some performances on the river, and the boat will rise and fall, and the fun is relatively strong. But the staff on the boat kept saying that the small photos don’t cost money. I sent them to everyone. I went to take them. I only knew that I had to spend 35 yuan to buy a big photo. I sent a small photo. The photos were printed out. I only bought it. I found that Guilin is like this in many places. The staff only emphasized that the small photos are sent at the beginning, and they are bound to the big photos without mentioning that the small photos are bound, and finally they will let you spend money to buy the big photos."

    "Because it rained a few days ago, the Lijiang River water was still very mixed, but the scenery along the way was good. The interior decoration of the boat looks exquisite and comfortable, and there is also Luo Hanguo tea, the seats are spacious, and there are sockets to charge. I chose the 10,000-way number when booking on Trip.com, but the final randomly arranged Shengjing number, bought the upper cabin 360 yuan/person, the customer service notified the departure time at 9:40 one day in advance, it is suitable for me who don't want to get up too early, you can leave a little later, you have to pick up the ticket at Zhujiang Wharf half an hour in advance. The narrator will always explain during the itinerary, especially when the big scenery will remind everyone to take pictures on the roof of the boat. You can rest in the boat at other times, so you don't have to worry about missing it. The itinerary is said to be four hours, in fact, it takes about three hours to arrive in Yangshuo (almost 13:00), but it takes almost half an hour to stop the boat and dock. The buffet lunch is generally the same, but it is OK, not difficult to eat. There will be various packages to promote local fish, as well as perfume, poker, puzzles, etc. If you are not interested, just ignore it. The upper and lower cabins share a bathroom. At the end of the lower cabin, there are 3 rooms in total. I only used it once in the middle. It feels good and not dirty."
    Lingchuan
    >100km from Ningyuan
    Highlights: The essence of Guilin's landscape lies in the scenery of Li River. Dubbed as the “best landscape in the world”, Guilin has appeared widely in elementary school textbooks. The two sides of the Li River have different mountains with different shapes. Among them, the most representative ones include the Nine Horse Mountain and the Yellow Cloth Shoal. The latter is featured on the back of the new 20 RMB notes. Visiting the Li River can be done by boat or bamboo rafts. The big boat is spacious but the bamboo raft is more exotic.

    "Yulong River is really beautiful! ! ! Sure enough, Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, Yangshuo's landscape is the best in Guilin! ! Proper people are in the middle of the painting! The whole process is about half an hour. The water quality is good, the scenery is good, and the air is good."
    Yangshuo.Yulong River National Tourist Resort
    >100km from Ningyuan
    Highlights: Yulong River is a tributary of the Li River in Yangshuo. Compared with the scenery of the Li River, Yulong River has a more gentle scenery and is known as the “Little Li River”. Bamboo rafting on the Yulong River is worth a visit. You can ride bamboo rafts between mountains and rivers to enjoy the beautiful landscapes on both sides of the river. In addition, you can walk along the river, or ride a bicycle and enjoy a relaxing and enjoyable journey.

    "The fare is also worth it. There is a special person to explain, the scenic spot is not big, and you can listen and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. Learn about the history and changes of Jingwang Wangfu, play the game of Tuoyin for free, and finally there is an exam, full of fun, and finally boarding Duxiu Peak to watch the sunset in Guilin is really beautiful."
