State. This treasure small town hidden in Hechi City is the hometown of Liu Sanjie! 🌟 Compared to the crowded Guilin, the mountains and waters here are equally stunning but without commercialization~ Highly recommend a self-driving tour! 🚗
🎆 Huaiyuan Ancient Town Guide:
📍 Address: Huaiyuan Town, Yizhou District, Hechi City (20km from downtown)
This is one of Guangxi's top ten ancient towns, a truly uncommercialized ancient town! The old street is super long, and the residents still live a slow-paced life here 👵 Grandmas sitting at the door playing cards make such a picturesque scene!
✨ Highlights:
- Free photo spots 📸 Every shot in the ancient town is a masterpiece
- 20 yuan boat ticket covers all the beautiful mountain and water views 🛶
- The local prices are so affordable 💰 A big bowl of rice noodles for 5 yuan!
- The glass bridge over the mountains and waters is perfect for check-ins
🏡 Liu Sanjie's Former Residence:
📍 Address: Xiajian River Scenic Area, Yizhou District, Hechi City
The joy of chartering a boat here is something only a few understand! The evening boat ride is simply amazing 🌅 The breeze on your face, the karst landscape on both sides rivals Guilin! Most importantly, the crowds! Are! Super! Small!
💡 Travel tips:
