Tourist guide to Gulao water town

The tourist strategy of Gulao water town can be considered from three aspects: tickets, scenic spot characteristics and food recommendation.

1, tickets

Gulao Water Town doesn't charge tickets, so tourists can go directly to the scenic spot to play, but the cruise project in the scenic spot needs to pay extra labor costs, because other villagers can't row for you for free.

2. Features of scenic spots

Ancient buildings are famous for their unique styles, and Lingnan customs are all in them. The community is connected by fresh stone bridges leading to green and yellow plants and crops. People need to cross these stone bridges to visit their homes. Although these stone bridges look very narrow, they are particularly safe to walk on, because people here grew up in this environment and are very familiar and natural.

3. Food recommendation

Gulao water town is famous for its unique cuisine. The chefs here are good at making use of the surrounding resources, using shrimps and crabs in the stream, all kinds of fish in the water, lotus seeds and lotus roots to cook mouth-watering dishes, as well as local specialty wines.
