Guilin: The Beauty of Four Seasons in a City of Mountains and Waters

Guilin, this beautiful city renowned for its mountains and waters, presents picturesque scenery throughout the four seasons, with each season boasting its unique charm.

In spring, Guilin seems to be awakened by nature, brimming with vitality everywhere. The trees on both banks of the Lijiang River sprout new buds, and the tender green leaves sway gently in the breeze. Peach blossoms and pear blossoms bloom competitively. The red ones are like fire, the pink ones like rosy clouds, and the white ones like snow, decorating Guilin into a poetic and picturesque wonderland. At this time, taking a bamboo raft tour on the Lijiang River allows you to not only admire the beautiful scenery on both banks but also experience the warmth and vitality of spring.

In summer, Guilin is an ideal place to escape the heat. The water in the Yulong River is cool and pleasant, attracting numerous tourists to go rafting. During the rafting process, you can fully enjoy the comfort brought by the cool river water while appreciating the lush green mountains and emerald rice paddies on both sides. At night, strolling along the streets of Guilin, feeling the summer breeze and savoring local special cold drinks is extremely delightful.

In autumn, the Longji Terraced Fields in Guilin embrace their most beautiful season. The terraced fields, tier upon tier, are filled with golden rice, glistening with a golden light under the sunlight. Overlooking from a high place, it seems like a golden scroll unfurling on the earth. This is also a great time to taste various autumn delicacies in Guilin, such as sweet Shatian pomelos and soft, glutinous candied chestnuts.
