✨ Personally tested and the experience is just as perfect as Guilin:
📍 Detian Waterfall
🌊 Asia’s largest transnational waterfall, riding a bamboo raft into the mist is super thrilling!
📸 The kids were so excited they kept giving peace signs, recommend going in the morning for better lighting and photos
💡 Bamboo raft costs 30 RMB/person, free for children under 1.2 meters
📍 White-headed Leaf Monkey Reserve
🐒 Got up early and spotted the real “Snow Mountain Flying Fox”! Only found in Guangxi worldwide
💡 Best to arrive before 7:00 AM, easiest to observe when the keepers feed them
🎫 Tickets 80 RMB, half price for children
📍 E Spring Secret Spot
💦 Off-peak free entry: enter before 8 AM or after 6 PM
🛶 Paddle bamboo rafts to catch water plants, kids had so much fun they didn’t want to get off
📸 The spring water is crystal clear, wearing a light-colored long dress makes for fairy-like photos
📍 Mingshi Countryside Cycling
🚲 Ride through the karst peak forest, feels like entering a landscape painting
⚠️ There are collision barriers at entrances/exits, hold kids’ hands tightly when cycling
💰 Bike rental 20 RMB/hour, parent-child bike 40 RMB
📅 5 days 4 nights fairyland itinerary (copy and you won’t regret):
𝐃𝐀𝐘 1

💡 Family travel 𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬:

This trip really nailed family travel!
The mountains and waters feel like they come with their own filter, kids fully energized, mom’s energy fully restored,
Looking at the photos now still brings a smile to my face~
Moms ready to travel with kids, trust me!

✨ Final note:
Guangxi is not just Guilin and Yangshuo,
These hidden borderline secret spots
are the ultimate answer for family trips!
Fewer people, beautiful scenery, great experience,
This holiday, bring your kids and become part of a painting for a few days~
