Guilin: A Fairyland of Mountains and Waters, a Haven for the Soul
Guilin has been renowned worldwide for its magnificent mountains and waters since ancient times, enjoying the reputation of "Guilin's scenery tops that of the world". This magical land seems to be a fairyland outlined by nature with the most delicate brushstrokes.
Upon arriving in Guilin, the beauty of the Lijiang River strikes directly at the heart. The river water flows gently, like a huge mirror, reflecting the continuous mountains on both banks. Some of the peaks stand solitary, like giant fingers stretching out from the earth, piercing the clouds; others are in overlapping ranges, resembling a magnificent landscape painting. Taking a bamboo raft downstream, the river breeze caresses your face, bringing a touch of coolness and the fresh breath of nature. Along the way, you can see fishermen on bamboo rafts, with cormorants for fishing. The ancient and simple scene seems to bring people back to the old days.
The karst caves in Guilin are also a great wonder. Inside Reed Flute Cave, there are numerous stalagmites, stone pillars, and stone curtains. Illuminated by the lights, they present a colorful scene. These strange rocks have formed various wonderful shapes through hundreds of millions of years of geological changes. Some look like birds and beasts, while others resemble immortals and Buddhas, making people marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature.
At night, Guilin has a unique charm. When the lights come on in the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic area, the lake water shimmers under the illumination. Walking along the lakeside, enjoying the pavilions and towers around, you can feel the tranquility and prosperity of this city. Guilin is not only a feast of mountains and waters but also a haven for the soul, allowing everyone who comes here to find inner peace and tranquility.
