How much does it cost to travel to Lijiang River?

There is no direct train from Chengdu to Guilin, but there are many ways to transfer trains. Personally, I think the best way is to transfer in Nanning.

Chengdu takes K139/K141/K144 times, departing at 8:52 and arriving in Guiyang at 19:37 the next day. The total distance is 1832 kilometers and the journey takes 34 hours and 45 minutes. The fare is 209 yuan for a hard seat and 356 yuan for a hard sleeper upper berth. 368 yuan for the middle berth and 380 yuan for the lower berth. 40 yuan should be enough for 4 meals on the train (instant noodles).

50 yuan for dinner in Nanning should be enough, and 180 yuan/night for a night in Nanning should be enough.

Take N802 (Nanning-Guilin North) on the second day, departing at 8:25 and arriving at Guilin North at 13:01. The total distance is 431 kilometers and the journey is 4 hours and 36 minutes. Fare: 65 yuan for hard seat and hard sleeper The upper berth costs NT$115, the middle berth costs NT$119, and the lower berth costs NT$122. Lunch on the train is 10 yuan (instant noodles).

So far, the two of them spent 1,170 yuan and successfully arrived in Guilin.

Guilin Food and Accommodation: 180 yuan/night for accommodation should be good. If you want to eat snacks, 20 yuan/meal for two people should be enough. Based on four days, the cost is approximately 960 yuan.

Guilin Tourism: Guilin has many tourist attractions, some of which are just in vain, so don’t go there. Here are the tickets for places I think are worth visiting for reference (all prices are for 2 people):

Reed Flute Cave 120 yuan, Diecai Mountain 40 yuan, Qixingyan 60 yuan, Xiangshan Park 50 yuan (you can also look outside the park and take photos), Fubo Mountain 30 yuan, Two Rivers and Four Lakes 298 yuan, Dream Lijiang Show 200 yuan, Jingjiang Palace (Duxiu Peak) 120 yuan (view the panoramic view of Guilin), Impression of Liu Sanjie (Ordinary ticket) (live large-scale song and dance performance) 376 yuan (VIP ticket 640 yuan), Li River boat ticket (luxury boat) 550 yuan (ordinary boat 420 yuan). The above price is as low as 1,764 yuan.

Return fee: 1170 yuan.

The total amount of the above expenses is: 5064 yuan.

Does not include shopping prices and transportation costs within the city.

Tips to save money: You can take a taxi in Guilin for free or for less money. The method is: after getting in the car, tell the taxi driver directly that you want to save money, and the driver will take you to 1-2 It is a designated tourist unit. After arriving at the place, you have to get off the bus and go in (no need to buy a ticket). You can just go around for a minute without spending a penny, then get on the same bus and continue walking. The bus price is cheaper. hehe.

I wish you a happy and smooth journey!
