Guilin Travel Diary

I heard that Guilin’s landscape is the best in the world. I thought Guilin’s landscape must be very charming.

When we arrived, it was 5 o'clock in the morning, and Guilin was still sleeping. After we stayed at the Pearl Hotel, we started a two-day tour of Guilin with the tour group at around 8 o'clock.

First of all, when we arrived at the Jingjiang Palace, I experienced the superior life of the nobles. What I was most interested in were the two cannons in the palace. Although the cannons were rusty, they had made great contributions. , the majesty has not diminished. I sat on the cannon and took my first photo. Jingjiang Prince's Palace has the reputation of "a city within a city". The most unique scenery of the Palace is Duxiu Peak, which has 365 steps. I climbed to the highest peak and had a panoramic view of Guilin. It is an eternal masterpiece that "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world". The original work is inscribed on the stone wall.

In the afternoon we visited the "Elephant Trunk Mountain", the symbol of Guilin City. I didn't expect that the mountain would look so strange. Nature carved the Elephant Trunk Mountain so vividly that it really looked like an elephant. Its long nose is drinking water from the Li River. In the evening, my mother and I went to the Pedestrian Street in Guilin City. No wonder I heard others say that the Pedestrian Street is a foreigner’s street. You can see foreigners everywhere. They are either sitting leisurely in roadside snack shops and tasting Guilin’s special delicacies; or chatting in bars; Wandering on the streets, Guilin’s pedestrian streets are very unique and you can eat many unique snacks.

We visited the Li River early the next morning. On the cruise ship, I was deeply intoxicated by the mountains and rivers of the Li River. I have been to the Three Gorges. The mountains in the Three Gorges are "dangerous", while the mountains in the Li River are "beautiful". The landscape of the Lijiang River is really like a beautiful landscape painting, it is really like "a hundred miles of Lijiang River, a hundred miles of galleries", and the wind-tailed bamboos beside the Lijiang River are also unique scenery. In front of the Nine Horse Painting Mountain, tourists are looking to see if there are nine horses. The tour guide said that people who can see the nine horses will definitely become great people in the future. Premier Zhou Enlai could see the nine horses at a glance, so he became A great man, I never saw the nine horses.

We disembarked in Yangshuo in the afternoon and came to the place where Sister Liu Sanjie sang folk songs, under the big banyan tree. The big banyan tree forms a forest. The ancient banyan tree has a history of more than 1,400 years and its ancient roots The lush branches and leaves are supported, really like a huge green umbrella dotting the land of Yangshuo.

Another unique landscape in Yangshuo is the "Moon Mountain". On the arched peak is a round hollow, like a moon hanging on the top of the mountain. When President Nixon saw the Moon Mountain, He didn’t believe that this was a naturally formed mountain, so he climbed to the top of the mountain in person before he was convinced. He also planted an osmanthus tree on Moon Mountain. Now this tree has long been fragrant with osmanthus on Moon Mountain. I think this is also a sign of the friendship between China and the United States. tree.

There are many beautiful scenery in Guilin. I am proud to spend this year’s National Day in the beautiful Guilin. I am also proud that our motherland has so many beautiful places. On this 56th birthday of my mother, I would like to express my gratitude to you. God, I said silently in my heart: "I love you, my lovely motherland!".
