Guilin Two Rivers and Four Lakes

We drove on the highway for 7 hours during the day and visited the Two Rivers and Four Lakes at night. As I was traveling with two 6-year-old children and had limited mobility, I only visited Shanhu Lake and Ronghu Lake. The highlight was the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas.

The night view is indeed a city card that Guilin has focused on creating. During the day, it may be a bit... How to describe it better? Let's compare it with the real objects. It is like Suzhou gardens, exquisite and beautiful; like Venice, with endless ships on the water; like Europe, the style of some bridge holes is like the architectural style of European film and television dramas; like Chinese landscape paintings, the old banyan tree can show its age, and other trees, shrubs, vines and grasses try to dress up this city like a forest city, with dense vegetation.

♦The price of boat tickets at night is much higher than that during the day, but it is indeed more beautiful at night. There are tour guides on the boat who tell the origins of the names of various rivers and lakes, the history of some bridges, towers and other buildings, as well as the construction history of the Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area.

♦It mentioned two lock structures that solve the terrain difference, and also felt the hull being raised and lowered one by one to shuttle between rivers and lakes. There are also photographers on the boat, taking pictures for free and paying for them

♦The sightseeing was over after about an hour and a half. Later, I walked on the shore. I felt that the night view from the lakeside was also very good. If you are traveling on a budget, it is not recommended to take a cruise. The rich can be willful.

♦The water lanterns are inconspicuous during the day, but very beautiful at night. They are a gift from various regions in Guangxi to celebrate the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up and the anniversary of the establishment of the autonomous region. Each city has a lantern display to reflect the differences of each city.

Guilin's "Two Rivers and Four Lakes" refer to the Li River, Taohua River, Mulong Lake (including Tiefotang), Gui Lake, Rong Lake, and Shan Lake. The water system around the city is 7.33 kilometers long and has a water surface area of 385,900 square meters. The project was first formed during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127). At that time, Rong Lake, Shan Lake, and Gui Lake were full of boats and tourists, and they were prosperous for a time. Due to the long time, some lakes and ponds have been filled. In order to reproduce the prosperous scene of Guilin's "Water City" and restore Guilin's urban tourism model of water travel in the Song Dynasty, the Guilin Municipal Government proposed it in 1998 and realized navigation in 2002.

The cruise ship can easily visit Guilin's main attractions.

We set out from the hotel at 6 o'clock and took a taxi to the Jiefang Bridge Pier. By the way, we watched the beautiful sunset near the bridge. Standing on the Jiefang Bridge, you can see the cruise ship and the tourists waiting to board. It is recommended that you can stroll here a little earlier and take pictures. The scenery is very good.

Let's get on the boat~ Our two families can sit in a booth. The tickets have seat numbers, so just take your seat according to your number~ After getting on the boat, each person was given a bottle of mineral water, which was very considerate.

Each boat will be equipped with a tour guide to explain the scenery along the way. The boat is relatively clean, and the boat at this time is just right for watching the sunset and night view, but dinner is not included on the boat, so it is best to eat something before boarding.

This Spring Festival, I experienced how difficult it is to book boat tickets in Guangxi, so I booked a boat ticket for Guilin's night tour of two rivers and four lakes in advance. Fortunately, this boat ticket is not as difficult to get as the Li River and Weizhou Island. The journey is one and a half hours. Boat cruise is a famous tourist project in Guilin, which includes the urban sections of the Li River and Taohua River, as well as Shanhu Lake, Ronghu Lake, Guihu Lake and Mulong Lake. These waters constitute the ring-shaped water system around the center of Guilin, and you can take a cruise to enjoy these beautiful views.

........Guilin's two rivers and four lakes refer to the Li River, Taohua River, Mulong Lake (including Tiefotang), Gui Lake, Rong Lake, and Shan Lake. The total length of the water system around the city is 7.33 kilometers, including the Taohua River and Li River sections in the city. The two rivers and four lakes are one of the business cards of Guilin's landscape, and it has a water system around the city that can be compared with Venice. A day trip by boat can take you to enjoy the essence of Guilin's urban area, which truly reflects the beautiful scenery of "thousands of peaks standing around the wild, and a river embracing the city" and the harmonious landscape of "the city is in the scenery, and the scenery is in the city"; a night trip by boat can enjoy more than ten traditional famous mountains and scenic spots, famous bridges and trees, pavilions and pavilions, and expo gardens such as Xiangbi Hill, Fubo Hill, Diecai Hill, Laoren Hill, and Baoji Hill, and feel the bright lights and swaying mountains and rivers at night in Guilin. Guilin's two rivers and four lakes are open areas, and tickets are free. The 8-shaped route of the two rivers and four lakes is about 12km. A day cruise on one river and four lakes costs 90 yuan per person, and a day cruise on four lakes costs 80 yuan per person; a night cruise on two rivers and four lakes costs 210 yuan per person, and a night cruise on four lakes costs 175 yuan per person.

The night is unique, the lake is colorful, the banks are covered with emerald green and red willows, lights are flashing, and fishermen are on hundreds of boats, all in straw hats and raincoats, fishing with cormorants (ospreys), which attracts cheers from tourists and children. It is 9 o'clock in the evening on holidays, and the fishermen still say "get to work" with a smile, and push the ospreys to encourage people to go into the water. This scene really makes many people laugh. This is far more than 996.

The entire cruise itinerary passes through the Li River, Taohua River, Mulong Lake, Gui Lake, Rong Lake, and Shan Lake in Guilin. If you are looking forward to various light shows, you may be disappointed. The night view here is mainly the comfort and beauty of small bridges, flowing water, and people's homes. Against the backdrop of the night, the hills on both sides of the Li River appear taller and more magnificent. Because the height difference between the river and the lake is inconsistent, the cruise will go through two specially set locks in the middle of the journey to achieve the transfer of different horizontal planes, which will delay some time.

Guilin's "Two Rivers and Four Lakes" refers to the Li River, Taohua River, Mulong Lake, Gui Lake, Rong Lake and Shan Lake. The project was first formed during the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, Rong Lake, Shan Lake and Gui Lake were crowded with boats and tourists, and they were once prosperous.

It is a model of combining urban landscape with natural landscape. Whether you take a boat to visit the two rivers and four lakes or walk on the shore, you will have different experiences and feelings. There are different scenery and surprises in different seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

The blue sky and clear water make you feel like you have arrived in a paradise on earth.

Taking a night cruise on the two rivers and four lakes is a must-see for first-time visitors to Guilin

Swaying in the Two Rivers of Guilin～～～～～～～

The scenery at night is still good, but it is not recommended to buy a ticket to take a cruise, just walk along the road!

The location is right in the center of Guilin. When I went there, the whole city was filled with the fragrance of golden osmanthus. The scenery was great during the day and even better at night...

The scenery is beautiful. It is an open scenic spot in Guilin. It is also very good to walk around the two rivers and four lakes every day to lose weight. There are different beauties during the day and at night.

Bamboo rafts, fishermen, and ospreys are the epitome of Guilin fishermen.

The walk along the coast is great, especially around the Liberation Bridge!!

Tour the two rivers and four lakes at night and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Guilin. You can walk or take a boat, but the boat ticket is more expensive.

It’s right in the city, and it looks especially beautiful under the lights at night!

Guilin's main scenic spot, the lights around the lake are beautiful at night, and the scenery is OK during the day. It's in the city. A check-in scenic spot. Free

The night view I saw was next to the Elephant Trunk Hill Park. The wind was too strong and I didn’t have a good time walking around. The Golden Pagoda and the Silver Pagoda were amazing.

As I enter the twilight of my life, I am willing to transform myself into a small bridge again, crossing the shallow stream. I hope that you, my dear, will accept my sincerity and embrace.

There is nothing special about the scenic spot, so I skipped it. The overall impression Guilin gave me is that its reputation is much greater than its reality, haha. Guilin people, please don’t criticize me. The scenery is still beautiful, but the management and operation are poor.

Let's take a night tour of the two rivers and four lakes! The Sun and Moon Towers are so beautiful!

The main attraction in Guilin, the lake surrounding the city.

During the more than one-hour voyage, there were paintings or reliefs on the bottom of each bridge for people to admire, which showed the meticulousness of the artificial carvings. That was all.

The most recommended scenic spot in Guilin. After visiting Xiangshan, you will find the pier. The price of a daytime cruise is not expensive. It takes nearly an hour to go around. Along the way, you can enjoy the scenery of Guilin except the caves. There will be stops at major scenic spots on the boat to take photos (no landing). The tour guide will take photos for free. Small photos are given as gifts, and large photos are charged. Because the printing effect is not good, it is not recommended to buy. Overall, it is worth a visit.

The two rivers and four lakes are for night view, it is best to go there at night, the night view is nice. I went there in the afternoon, just walked around, there was nothing to see.

Wenchang Bridge Wharf to exchange tickets, the whole journey takes 1.5 hours, the scenery is OK, but I feel it is not worth such an expensive ticket. I landed at Xiangshan Wharf at 8:30 pm.

Generally speaking, the scenery at night is much more beautiful than that during the day. The Two Rivers and Four Lakes area is quite large. It took me two days to walk around the area. The government of Guilin has put a lot of effort into tourism. The environment, security, and quality of service personnel are all good. It is worth a trip.

It's suitable to go at night, the night view is quite beautiful.

The Sun Tower in the center of Shanhu Lake is magnificent, and the Moon Tower is shining silver. The Sun and Moon Towers complement each other and are reflected beautifully in the water. There is a glass bridge not far from the Sun and Moon Towers, and there is a fee to go up the bridge.

The scenery is good. The twin towers are more famous and you can walk around. The day and night have their own characteristics.

The night view is very beautiful, especially the two towers, shining with gold and silver

Just walk around, whoever takes the boat will be the one to enjoy. There are photos of both day and night.

I walked by myself, and didn't take a cruise to visit the two rivers and four lakes. The scenery was nice.

A very beautiful park, the locals call it Sun and Moon Tower Park. It is a landscape park built around the Sun and Moon Towers. The night view is very beautiful. When I went there, it was the Lantern Festival, which was very beautiful.

Two rivers and four lakes, a night boat tour of the scenery, the Sun and Moon Towers.

Two Rivers and Four Lakes is a very unique scenic spot in Guilin. First of all, the two rivers represent: Li River and Taohua River. The four lakes are: Shan Lake, Rong Lake, Gui Lake and Mulong Lake. A night tour of the two rivers and four lakes is a must-do itinerary that I must recommend when visiting Guilin.

The photo is not P, just take a look at it

The night view is pretty good, but it's a bit confusing that the boarding and disembarking piers are not the same!

The city of mountains and rivers has been well renovated in recent years. I hope it will be fully completed as soon as possible.

I think it's OK. If you are taking your children for a night tour, it's not necessary for adults to go there. Don't go to the free park and walk along the coast.

A general term for all the scenic water systems in Guilin city. The scenery is similar, so there is no need to visit all of them. With the Sun and Moon Pagodas as its symbol, it is a representative scenic spot in Guilin. The security at night is not very good and there are thieves.

The night view of the two rivers and four lakes is very beautiful, and taking a night cruise is a special experience~

Two rivers and four lakes are the water system of Guilin. The boat tour is actually to see the night view. Of course, if you have a lot of time, you can take a walk along the ancient South Gate Lake, which is basically the same as the boat tour of the two rivers and four lakes. Because the water level of the four lakes is different from that of the two rivers, you can experience the opening of the gates when you take a boat, which is similar to the boat crossing of the Three Gorges Dam. You can also see it on the bridge.

The voice of the explanation is a little low. It is worth it. You can get very close to the two towers by boat, which is equivalent to visiting many attractions for free by boat.

The night cruise of Two Rivers and Four Lakes is different from many night cruises in that there is a difference in water level between the river and the lake, and the rise and fall is quite fun. Every time a boat passes by, there will be a small performance to welcome you. There are many boat trips, choose the time that suits you, and the docks for boarding and disembarking are not fixed. I got on from Wenchang Bridge Wharf and got off at Xiangshan No. 3 Wharf. You need to arrive at the wharf half an hour in advance. The cruise time is about 90 minutes.

Go to Wenchang Bridge Pier, buy tickets for the Two Rivers and Four Lakes, and take a boat tour of Guilin.

On the cruise ship, we saw the night view of Guilin, listened to the tour guide's explanation, and watched local performances from time to time. It was wonderful and not surprising.

I was going to go during the day. Two taxi drivers told me that it was better to go at night. It turned out that going at night was a complete bummer. I strongly recommend not going. If you really want to go, go during the day.

When booking a ticket, you can choose the boarding and disembarking pier according to your needs.

After booking online, you can go directly to the ticket office and report your mobile phone number to pick up the ticket, which is quite convenient. Guilin is still quite beautiful at night, and the colorful lights set off the beauty of the two rivers and four lakes. The most worth seeing attraction in the two rivers and four lakes is the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas.

There are about 40 people on a boat. The tickets have seat numbers and you sit according to the number. The boat we took had a group of 18 people. It was very noisy on the boat. Bad things always happened to us, and we were very upset! !

When you take a boat along the river and lake, you can see the integration of the riverside buildings and the river, and the reflection of the pavilions and bridges on the lakeside. If Chongqing's night tour of the two rivers is like a lady from a noble family, then Guilin's night tour of the two rivers and four lakes is like a beautiful girl from a small family. The key landscape of the two rivers and four lakes tour is the Sun and Moon Twin Towers located in Shanhu Lake. The important experience is the switch from high water level to low water level and then from low water level to high water level, just like the boat taking an elevator.

The two rivers and four lakes at night, with their clear water and flickering lights, have a more hazy beauty than during the day. Walking by the lake, you can see tourists leisurely touring the lake. There are also locals who come to the lake to enjoy the cool at night. The most special thing about the night view of the two rivers and four lakes is the bridges on the lake. Do they look familiar? They are modeled after famous bridges in various countries around the world. The Golden Gate Bridge in the United States, the Arc de Triomphe in France... You can admire these architectural wonders without leaving the country.

The sunset in the evening has just set, and the sunlight shines on the Sun and Moon Twin Towers in the lake. The lake is rippling, and the water waves reflect the bright fireworks in the sky. The scenery here is beautiful.

When night falls, the breeze blows on the water surface, and the golden lights cover the river with a layer of golden gauze. The lights and water waves together outline a charming night scene.

It is the pride of Guilin people and a place that almost all tourists will check in. If you have time, you can take a night cruise, with lights on and a new scene at every step, like a dream...

This scenic spot is very beautiful and relaxing. It gives people the illusion that they are not in a commercial area. Every bridge is beautiful. Because of the strong wind, I only took pictures of the two rivers and four lakes at sunset. After turning on the lights, I went back to the hotel.

The night view of Guilin is a must-see. The most beautiful scenery of Guilin night tour is concentrated in the two rivers and four lakes. The two rivers and four lakes refer to the Li River, Taohua River, Guihu Lake, Ronghu Lake, Shanhu Lake and Mulong Lake in Guilin City. The two rivers and four lakes constitute the water system around Guilin City and are also an important part of the beautiful scenery of Guilin. Under the night sky, the two rivers and four lakes are even more brightly lit and colorful.

Seeing Guilin at night is a different experience. Under the neon lights, the mountains are even more mysterious. There are also some singing and dancing performances on both sides from time to time. The most noteworthy thing is that in order to create the scene of cormorants fishing, more than a dozen people and dozens of cormorants performed in the cold wind. They were very dedicated. I was lucky enough to see a cormorant catch a small fish! Basically, each place has a different scene. Each span has its own characteristics, and the two locks also use different lifting methods.

Occasionally a cruise ship passed by, and the Monkey King would run over, climb on the fence, and shout loudly, "Ships, boats, boats!"

After dinner, I went to visit the Two Rivers and Four Lakes, the Sun and Moon Towers! It was very pleasant to stroll by the lake! If conditions permit, you can choose to tour the Two Rivers and Four Lakes at night!

It is not recommended to take a boat tour to visit the Two Rivers and Four Lakes here, as most of the scenery is man-made, except for the rich.

In the evening, the Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area was not completely dark yet. The decorative lights had just been turned on and the tourists were sparse. The scenery could not be fully presented yet. At around 9 o'clock, you can walk here to stroll around. There were song performances by the lake, you can come and listen. There were many leisure seats in front of the stage, but you'd better not sit there, because they were for business. You can only sit there if you order tea (tea is expensive). Anyway, I didn't buy tea and went to sit there directly until I was driven away by the waiter...

It was worth the trip. The lighting was very good, and there were beautiful murals under every bridge that the cruise ship passed. There were tour guides, and we also passed a lock, which was fun.

This scene is located in the center of Guilin, and its name was given in the past decade. Originally, there was a street running north and south in Guilin, and a bridge running east and west. This bridge is Yangqiao, and there is a lake in the east and west. Because there are banyan trees and fir trees in each lake, they are called Rong Lake and Fir Lake, and there are many hotels and travel agencies named after them.

The Two Rivers and Four Lakes are the city's business card for Guilin. Many customers have booked on our China-TravelNote store. You can hear many stories about bridges, and under the guidance of the guide, we

Being able to understand the urban development of Guilin, this also opens a door for tourists to understand the city of Guilin, to feel the towering peaks and winding Li River, the densely packed urban buildings, and the intimate and intertwined peaks and forests.

It's really beautiful, I like it very much. I took a boat tour on the lake and saw the night view!

The boat tickets for the Two Rivers and Four Lakes are still very expensive. I feel that if young people, if their physical strength allows, can choose to walk the Two Rivers and Four Lakes. They don't have to walk all of them, but they can see the most essential part near the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas. I feel that the scenery from the boat is not as good as imagined, and it is not worth it. We got on from the Jiefang Road Wharf and got off from the Wenchang Wharf. You can choose to get on from the Wenchang Wharf and get off from the Jiefang Wharf. The most interesting thing about taking a boat is probably the raising and lowering of the boat from the river to the lake, which can be seen but not felt from the boat.

My travel notes on Guilin/Yangshuo/Longji Terraces: http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/10065982.html

The Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas is an open park with no entrance fee. You can walk along the shore and enjoy the night view of the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas. There are also some singers singing on the shore, and the atmosphere is very good.

To be honest, the Sun and Moon Twin Towers are much more beautiful at night than during the day. During the day, the residential buildings behind the twin towers are clearly visible, but at night, only the twin towers are the brightest.

The most famous thing about Two Rivers and Four Lakes is the night view of the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas. It takes only half an hour to walk around the lake, and the scenery is pleasant. Two Rivers and Four Lakes is actually a large area, including the famous Xiangshan Scenic Area.

The two rivers refer to Taohua River and Li River, and the four lakes are Rong Lake, Shan Lake, Gui Lake, and Mulong Lake. A few years ago, the water quality of Taohua River was not treated and it was quite smelly. Now that Guilin's renovation project has shown results, the property prices along Taohua River have soared.

At 20:10, we boarded the boat under Wenchang Bridge and beside the stupa to visit the two rivers and four lakes. Seeing Guilin at night is like seeing a beauty under the lamp, with all the flaws hidden but more charming.

The night view of the Two Rivers and Four Lakes is really good, but it does not mean that I think taking a boat is a good experience. The most quintessential night view is at Shanhu Ronghu. There are many tourists near the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas and the Ancient Banyan Bridge, and the fireworks are dazzling. After passing the small "Arc de Triomphe", the only night view you can see is the bridge.

The first stop in Guilin is Xiangshan District. The night view of the two rivers and four lakes is worth seeing. It has its own characteristics compared to the night view of my hometown Chongqing.

The cruise ship costs 158. It is very nice to take a cruise to experience the two rivers and four lakes and see the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas on the water. The cruise ship is also equipped with a tour guide. Although the tickets for the attractions are a bit expensive, there will be a tour guide to explain, so you can really understand the places to play, instead of just seeing them in a hurry.

Except for the Sun and Moon Towers, which are quite nice, the other night views are similar to those of the Imperial River in Kaifeng, but slightly better. Don't take the cruise ship, which is too bad.

Along the way, you can see the twin towers standing in the lake from afar, reflected on the clear and bright lake surface; the crisscrossing trees on both sides, accompanied by the night and the lights, make people feel as if they are in a fairyland, deeply immersed in this world of fireworks... Tourists can also take a cruise to travel around the two rivers and four lakes, quietly enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake on the boat, and feel the state of harmony between man and nature. After dinner, young lovers can meet at the lakeside to enjoy the scenery and the breeze, lean on the railing to look out, the small bridge and the flowing water, and the company of the beloved, which is a unique mood.
