L How long does it take from Lijiang River in Guilin to Yangshuo?

If you choose to take a tour boat from Guilin to Yangshuo, you need to book tickets one day in advance. You can ask the hotel where you stayed on the first day to make a reservation for you. The fare is uniform (it seems to be 280 yuan/person), and the time is about 4 hours. D3 Yulong River rafting, watching Impression of Sister Liu in the evening, staying in Yangshuo, and the whole rafting route of Yulong River: Fuli Bridge = = Jinlong Bridge-Qi Fengshan-Tianzuozhai-Yulong Bridge-Shilong Mountain Villa-Baxianyan-Double Lion Race-Lovers Mountain (crossing the rock)-Guiyi Ancient City (old county)-Xiangui Bridge. Raft rafting: It is recommended that those who are in a hurry but do not give up the charm of Lijiang River choose this tour, ① Fuli Bridge (Jinlong Bridge) in the upper reaches-the old county, ② Chaoyang Pier-Gongnong Bridge. Fuli Bridge is one of the oldest existing stone bridges in Guangxi, and it is also the most round single-arch stone bridge. There used to be an old tree at both ends of the bridge. Unfortunately, one tree was blown off by the wind in 2005, and now there is only one left. Drifting from Fuli Bridge, two rafters per raft, limited to two people, passing through nearly 30 dams along the way, the journey takes about 6 hours, and there is an hour's rest to eat farmhouse meals in the old county (the price is similar to that of restaurants in Yangshuo County, but there are many people eating, and the serving speed is slow). Full drifting ticket price 240 yuan/Raft, Chenfeng Inn reservation price 170 yuan/Raft. We found Chen Jian 13877375697 belonging to Yulong River Fuliqiao Raft Drifting Co., Ltd., and gave us the price of 150 yuan/Raft. If drifting starts from Yulong Bridge, 65438+. Yulong River has the reputation of "Little Lijiang River". Compared with Lijiang River, Yulong River is more soothing and elegant, more like a picture scroll, which makes people want to blend in. Personally, I think the scenery in the upper reaches of Yulong River (from Fuliqiao to the old county) is the most beautiful and quiet, and there are few bamboo rafts on the river. After the old county, the number of bamboo rafts on the river began to increase, mostly tourists from tour groups, which broke the tranquility of Yulong River. So personally, even if you drift halfway, you'd better choose Fuli Bridge (or Jinlong Bridge), the section of the old county, instead of going to Chaoyang Wharf. It takes about 25 minutes to take the Jinbao shuttle bus from Yangshuo (20 minutes/trip, 3.5 yuan/person) to Baisha Yulong Village (get off at Jinlong Bridge) (there are two shuttle buses from Yangshuo to Jinbao, and the northern line takes Baisha to Jinbao, only the shuttle bus of this line can reach). Raft Association will wait for you at Jinlong Bridge, and then take you to Fuli Bridge by motorcycle to start rafting. Of course, you can also choose bicycles as a means of transportation (all hotels in Yangshuo rent bicycles, such as ordinary cars in 5 yuan/day, mountain bikes in 8 yuan/day, and ordinary cars are also acceptable). If you follow the bus route, you can get there in about 70 minutes by bike, but if you want to experience the real rural scenery and have enough energy, take the country road. On that day, my husband and I rode two bicycles respectively (the country road is rugged, so don't rent a tandem bicycle for romance). It took us nearly two hours to reach Jinlong Bridge from Yangshuo along Yulong River, which is equivalent to riding half the distance along the hiking route. Although hard, but the land and water do not delay, only their own experience of fun. When you start drifting, you can put your bike on a bamboo raft or stay at Jinlong Bridge. A truck carrying a bamboo raft will take your bike to Gongnong Bridge. When you finish drifting, your bike will wait for you on the shore. I heard that the big banyan tree and the Moon Mountain scenic spots are not interesting (it is enough to see the back of the Moon Mountain when drifting), so I don't waste money. Originally, I planned to go to Shuiyan to take a mud bath, but considering that I had to wear a swimsuit when I went in, and the water and mud were still cold in April, I had to give up. Friends who go in summer may wish to have a try. I heard it was very good. However, Shuiyan Scenic Area is not officially developed by the government, and there are no safety measures in it, which is not suitable for the elderly and children. Chen Feng Inn can book tickets for 40 yuan/person, or you can make a counter-offer. As the whole day was spent drifting (actually, it was half a day, and we got on the bamboo raft after 1 1), we asked the rafters to slow down and enjoy the fairyland of traveling in the illustrated world. It was already past 5 o'clock when we arrived at the Gongnong Bridge. I rode my bike back to Yangshuo in about half an hour. In the evening, I watched Impression of Sister Liu. The ticket booked at Chenfeng Inn in Area C, 130 yuan/person, is cheaper than the face price (it seems to be 188/ person), and there is a car delivery service. Impression of Third Sister Liu is performed twice a night, the first time around 7:40 and the second time around 9:00, with a duration of about one hour. At the end of the performance, there is a battery car outside to the intersection of Jesse and 2 yuan, but there are few cars. It is suggested that friends who go by themselves come out at the end of the performance. Of course there will be other cars, but the cost will be higher. If there are many people going, you can charter a car, and the cost is similar. Although the ticket price is high, it is still worth seeing. It is a different visual experience. Of course, you can also visit Yulong River alternately by rafting and hiking, or by cycling along country roads. The route is: Yangshuo-Jima-Chaoyang Village-Xiatang Village-xinglong village-Old County-Xiangui Bridge-Yulong Village (Yulong Bridge)-Jinlong Bridge-Fuli Bridge-Baisha-Yangshuo. It takes about 3-4 hours to ride and about 5 hours to walk. It is recommended to choose the drifting section. D4 Guandazhai Terrace, Suyangshuo Longji Terrace consists of two parts, one is Pinganzhuang Terrace, namely peace village, and the other is Jinkeng Yao Hong Terrace, namely Dazhai. Peace village is an old scenic spot and Dazhai Village is a new scenic spot. In fact, their ticket prices are the same: 50 yuan/person. Personally, I think Dazhai is more interesting, with fewer people going, but the terraces are closer, bigger and more spectacular. The conditions in peace village are better, and the mountains don't have to climb too high, so Dazhai is different and needs some physical strength. You can only go to one terrace a day. There are three scenic spots in Dazhai: 1, which are relatively high and can be seen at sunrise or sunset; No.2 scenic spot, relatively close, suitable for watching the sunrise; No.3 scenic spot ("Maogai"), the farthest, highest and most spectacular scenic spot, many photos are of this place. It is recommended to visit observation deck 3 and observation deck 1, and the last bus must leave at 4: 30 pm in the scenic spot. The scenic spot is about 1 hour from Longsheng county, about 2 hours from Longsheng to Guilin, and about 1 hour from Guilin to Yangshuo. If you want to see all three scenic spots, or watch the sunset or sunrise, you have to stay in the stockade for one night. I heard that Panorama Building is not bad, 0773-7585688, although it is a little high (at the top of Dazhai), but because it is the first scenic spot, you can watch the sunrise in your room when you get up the next day, and the route is reasonable. You pass No.2 on the way up the mountain, live at 1, and pass No.3 on the way down. PS: Longji Hua Ting has three entrances, each of which can be reached by bus from Guilin. The first entrance: Heping Village 1, Guilin takes the express train (fare 15 yuan, time: 8: 00; 9: 10; 1 1:00; 12:00; 13: 10; 14:00; 15: 10 ; 16: 10; l7: 10； 18: 20) It takes about 130 minutes to get to Longsheng County, and then transfer to the shuttle bus of Longsheng-Ping 'an Parking Lot (Longji) (fare: 6.5 yuan, time: 7: 30; 9:00; 1 1:00; 13:00; 15:00; 17: 00) to peace village parking lot (about 60 minutes), and then walk for 20 minutes to peace village. When you return, you can take a bus to Longsheng in Ping 'an parking lot (time: 7: 20; 8:50; 13:00; 15:00; 16: 30) 2. Take the local train in Guilin (fare 1 1 yuan, time 6: 10- 17: 00, 20 minutes) to Heping Township (Longji intersection, about 2 hours and 30 minutes) 3. If you miss the bus to Longji in Heping Village, you can take the bus from Longsheng to Shuanghekou at Longji intersection, take Huangluo, and then walk to Heping Village, about 1 hour. The second entrance: Longji Village, 1. It's about 40 minutes' walk from the vicinity of peace village Qixing Moon View Scenic Area. The terraces are very spectacular. If you don't go to Dazhai, you can choose this stockade. 2. Climb the terraced fields from the highway, or walk for a few minutes in the direction of Longsheng County at Longji intersection. There is a path under repair. You can walk along this path to Longji Village for about 3 hours, but you can save 30 yuan for tickets. It's worth walking more! The third entrance: Dazhai 1, Guilin-Longsheng Expressway is the same as going to Heping Village. At Longsheng bus station, transfer to Longsheng-Dahushan-Dazhai shuttle bus (fare: 6.5 yuan, 8 yuan, time: 7: 00- 17: 00, every 20 minutes, and the journey takes 1 half an hour. 2. Take the local train from Guilin to Heping Village and transfer to Dazhai peacefully, as above. Personally, I feel that the transportation to the terraced fields is not very convenient, and I need to transfer a lot of cars on the way, so I joined a tour group through Chenfeng Inn, 1 10 yuan/person (including tickets). I started from Yangshuo at 7:30 in the morning and stopped in Guilin on the way. Visitors who have booked in advance get on the bus, arrive at Dazhai around 12, and return from Dazhai at 3: 30 in the afternoon. Although we could get off at Guilin, we chose to stay in Yangshuo. After all, the unit price of Guilin is three times that of Yangshuo. The tour guide will take the tourists to the No.2 scenic spot, organize a unified meal and watch Yao Long's hairstyle performance on the way, but these are all at their own expense. After we arrived in Dazhai, we left the tour guide and hired a local Yao woman to lead us, at a cost of 10 yuan, to the No.3 scenic spot. It takes about 70 minutes to climb the No.3 viewing platform from Zhaikou, and the terrain is steep. Walking along a narrow bluestone road requires a certain amount of physical strength and is not suitable for the elderly, children and the infirm. There are few tourists in the third scenic spot. We only met two people along the way, but the third scenic spot is the highest and most spectacular. Standing on the top of the mountain, you will feel that all the hard work is worth it. I rested at the top of the mountain for about an hour, and went down the mountain in no hurry, just to meet the other members of the tour group in the second scenic spot. Most of the time they were taken by tour guides to watch performances, and little time was spent actually watching terraces. The best time to visit Longji is to start drainage of terraced fields after April 15th of the lunar calendar every year for half a month. The terraced fields after transplanting and drainage are very magnificent under the sunshine. And half a month after the Mid-Autumn Festival every year. The snow scene in Longji is also great, but the time of snow is uncertain, depending on luck. In addition, Yao women in scenic spots will sell you so-called "handicrafts", so be careful. ^_^ D5 The main part of the trip back to Shanghai is over, so you can have a good sleep. After getting up for dinner, you can take a bus back to Guilin from Yangshuo bus station and visit Elephant Trunk Mountain and Fu Bo, which is considered as having been to Guilin. You can bring some local products. There are no large supermarkets in Guilin, only small local products wholesale departments. Don't forget to shop around and bargain hard. Be careful when you bring Sanhua wine back, because then your luggage will have to be checked. You can buy it after the airport security check. In the evening, you can take the airport bus from Shanghai Road Civil Aviation Building to the airport, 20 yuan/person, and the last bus leaves at 8: 00 sharp. PS: Guilin's main scenic spots and tickets, tickets for two rivers and four lakes, 149 yuan? 6? 1 Cruise time is 2 hours. ? 6? 1 Actually, it's not bad to visit Gui Hu, Banyan Lake and Shanshan Lake.

About Guilin There are two train passenger stations in Guilin: Guilin North Station (commonly known as North Station and Starting Station) and Guilin South Station (commonly known as guilin railway station or South Station). South Railway Station is the main passenger station at present, and the traffic in the urban area (Zhongshan South Road) is very convenient. North station is in the north of Guilin. According to the local people, it should be considered a suburb. The traffic is not very convenient. Only 18 and 99 can reach the city. If the train stops at North Station and South Station at the same time, you'd better get off at South Station. There are few trains from Guilin, and most of them stop over. Sleepers heading north are generally difficult to buy at the window. It is very convenient to go to Liuzhou, Nanning and other cities in the region. There are three bus stations in Guilin: Bus Terminal (Zhongshan South Road, the most important passenger station), Chengnan Bus Station and Beimen Bus Station (Zhongshan North Road, mainly heading for Xing 'an and Lingchuan). The buses in the area and most suburban buses start from the passenger station, and it takes about 10 minutes to go north from the South Railway Station (turn left at the station). There are buses in all scenic spots in Guilin, and the buses in Guilin are basically empty. 1 yuan get on the bus, no change. Bus to the suburbs 1.5 yuan, such as No.3, air-conditioned 2 yuan, such as No.99, please ask the driver or look at the bus stop sign before getting on. It is possible that only Guilin in China has free buses (trains leaving at 8: 00- 17: 00 and 5), and the waiting time of free buses is longer than that of ordinary buses, and people should pay attention to their personal finances when riding, and thieves also ride for free. ◇ The following are free buses: 5 1 Road-starting from East Bus Station, passing through Flower and Bird Market, Arctic Square, Fengbei Road and Central Square to Guilin Railway Station. Route 52 —— Depart from Donghuan Courtyard, pass Sanlidian Square on Long Yin Road, and arrive at Qixing Park. Route 53-The bus company departs and goes to the Arctic Square via Huancheng West Road. No.54 —— Depart from Guilin South Railway Station, pass through Shanghai Road, Anxin Community, Chuanshan Park and Sanlidian Square, and go to High-tech Zone. No.55-Starting from Pingshan, passing through the South Ring Road and Jingpingshan Bridge to the vehicle management office. Route 56-from Pingshan to Pingshan via Nanxi Park, Shanghai Overpass, Xiangjiang Hotel, Jiangjun Road and Bazhong Road. No.57 Road-Starting from Xifeng Road, it passes through Education College, Children's Palace, Ximenqiao, Nanmenqiao, Xiangshan Park, jiefang bridge, Cross Street and Art Museum to Xifeng Road. Route 58 —— Starting from Nanxi Mountain Park, passing Xiangshan Park, Qixing Park, Folk Park, Fubo Mountain Park, Diecai Mountain Park and Yushan Park to Ludi Park. Most taxi models in Guilin are Jetta and Santana cars, and the starting price is 7 yuan /3km. Guilin is a small city, so it is much more convenient to buy a traffic map of Guilin when you leave the airport or railway station. Accommodation in Yangshuo Yangshuo is a small county. The main roads are Taopan Road, Diecui Road and West Street, which can be reached by bike in 20 minutes. The most famous place in the county is West Street. But personally, I think West Street is a combination of Shanghai City God Temple and Xintiandi, and it has no special feeling. However, there are several shops in West Street that are worth recommending: Traveler: The most famous ones here are "Apple Crispy" (￥8/ small, ￥ 12/ large) and "Potato Pie" (￥28/ small, ￥32/ large), both of which have large and small portions. No restaurant: The features are "breakfast without special features" (20 yuan/serving) and "American breakfast" (22 yuan/serving). American breakfast includes a glass of milk/juice, a bowl of salad, a bowl of Mu Si, potato cakes, two pieces of lunch meat, two eggs, four pieces of toast and a piece of bacon. Red Star Express Pizza: This store has a large number of people and a good reputation. Many foreigners follow the map and come here for an addiction. Mingyuan Coffee: It is said that this is the only coffee shop with the best quality in West Street. Past events in West Street: There are 4 or 5 CD files in West Street, which basically sell European and American pop music. This one is better, and the variety is more complete. You don't have to buy it, you can listen to it one by one, and the owner doesn't mind. One 20 yuan, three 50 yuan, no discount. But pay attention to see if the tracks printed on the CD package are consistent with those on the CD. Yangshuo specialty: beer fish: beer fish is actually a way of cooking fish, not a kind of fish. Generally, there are carp (18 yuan/kg), hairy fish (40 yuan/kg) and swordfish (80 yuan/kg) that make beer fish. Generally speaking, a fish weighs two kilograms. In fact, the main thing is to taste the beer fish. As for the types of fish, there is no need to be demanding. The water in Lijiang River is good, so all the fish produced are fresh and tender. Personally, I have tasted beer fish made of carp and hairy bone fish, and it feels good. Yangshuo is most famous for its "Xie Dajie Beer Fish" on Diecui Road, and signs such as "Dajie". Personally, I have tried "Xie Jie", "Ping Li" and "Chen Jie" and found that the taste is similar and the price is similar. However, if you take the business card of "Sister Chen" with the seal of the inn to eat at Chenfeng Inn, you can get a 20% discount, which is quite attractive. Stir-fried snail: snail is a very big kind, very delicious, not like the black and sticky one sold in Shanghai Chenghuang Temple at all, and it is worth a try. Stuffed snails: It's not bad to pick out the snail meat, chop it up, mix it with fresh meat and spices, and then stuff it back, but it feels a little greasy after eating too much. In addition, there are various "brews" such as grapefruit brews and tofu brews. Vegetables: The vegetables in Yangshuo are delicious. Accustomed to the greenhouse vegetables in Shanghai, I feel that the food there is particularly fragrant. Midnight snack: Opposite the farmer's market, it opens at around 7: 00 every night, and there are more than 10 food stalls. Features: stewed meat for several dollars or a big fish head pot. The biggest advantage is that you can get what you want, such as stewed chicken legs, sorghum dumplings, beef wonton and big fish head hot pot. Stewed chicken leg in 3 yuan, stewed pig brain in 4 yuan, stewed pigeon in 6 yuan, and 1 yuan glutinous rice balls are all good and worth trying every night. Accommodation in Yangshuo: There are many inns in Yangshuo. You can choose to live in West Street. The disadvantage is that it is noisy and may affect your rest at night. Personally, I still recommend outside West Street, quiet, not far from West Street. This time I stayed at Chenfeng Inn, 0773-88 15959, which was run by several college students. Not bad, clean and tidy. Besides, I heard that the lazy hall is also good. If you want to stay at Kelpolo Hotel on West Street, 0773-8827544; No.8 West Street Hotel: 0773-8820 1 18. For more hotels, please check the website/glhotel.htm. Other tips are that the weather in Guilin and Yangshuo is sultry, but if it is sunny, the sun will be very strong, so pay attention to sun protection. April is the rainy season every year, with an average rainy day 19 days. It didn't rain in several scenic spots I visited this time. God really gave us enough face. There are mosquitoes in Yangshuo in April. Remember to bring toilet water. Many hotels in Yangshuo do not provide disposable toiletries, so you should ask in advance. If you don't provide it, bring it yourself. Yangshuo's folk customs are simple, and most people are realistic. If you don't know the way during the tour, you can ask the local people on the roadside and generally get a warm answer. If you don't trust, ask an older person, and you won't lie. My husband and I rode the country road from Yangshuo to Jinlong Bridge. We asked all the way, and we didn't go the wrong way. If you want to buy local products, you'd better go to Guilin, and the price will be more reasonable. In addition to the traditional Sanhua wine, Chili sauce and bean curd, there are also Siraitia grosvenorii, osmanthus tea, ant powder and so on. You can take some home. The tableware disinfection work in Guilin and Yangshuo is particularly good. They are all packaged independently after unified disinfection in the disinfection center. This is the most reassuring tableware I have ever seen outside.
