What travellers are saying
- Dmitry S3 contributionsThis is a must-go place with astonishing views and a reasonable 10 minute hike. Not very expensive, high quality stairs. Very safe.Written 5 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Harry LiGuilin, China15 contributionsAn Ordinary ancient town, food here is overpriced, especially after the Re-open of China tourism. But I’m lucky enough to meet these local Zhuang and Miao People to celebrate their traditional holiday. Order a beer in this Bar and support the local business.Written 15 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sascha AGermany12 contributionsVery popular spot, so it’s difficult to be alone on this bridge. Try and check several locations around the bridge to take some nice pics. Very nice view from the bridge. Easy to reach with scooter or taxi.Written 9 May 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- kim buay pSingapore, Singapore11,205 contributionsMany people took the bamboo raft ride here as it includes a return ride. The bridge is lovely and this place is very busy. If one starts the bamboo raft ride from Jinlong Bridge slightly further up, the ride is only one way for 1.5 hours and it costs 255 yuan for two people.Written 13 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LybergDannevirke, New Zealand34 contributionsButterfly Spring appears a bit tacky from the outside but the underground well lit caves are a beauty to go through. Some comment on it being a tourist trap - and in a way they are right - it is a tourist attraction and like all in every part of the world are designed to part you from extra money - but this is a gem to be seen and well worth the effort and is not far from Guilin. I loved it and I was a solo New Zealander with no Chinese language, and still found it worth the effort. Why else go to China if no to immerse and experience.s eWritten 4 January 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 14raj713 contributionsA small town which can be covered in it's entirety in 1 hour's leisurely walk.
Across the river, settlements of enthusiastic AirBnB and motel developers are cropping up at a rampant pace.
The key things are the spectacular views along the Li River (including the 20 yuan note view), Bamboo boat rides to Nine Horse Hill and possibly the cormorant fishermen.
Walking is enjoyable. Electric ferry cars are a plenty and they don't cost much (you can bargain as they always start with an inflated prices for tourists).Written 6 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We got to the city by a small people ferry. We strolled through the city and enjoyed the beautiful day.Written 10 March 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Enj0yTravelN0wAustin, TX184 contributionsTook a while to find the path - go up concerte steps heading to massage place - keep going up and the turn left into dirt trail (see pics below)
It’s a big of a scramble and not for tourists without the right shoes and cab hike steep slippery terrain - we went day after rain and it was super slick
Well worth the trek - view from top is spectacularWritten 4 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - lwjubeckMonroe, Wisconsin227 contributionsWe stumbled upon Jiuxian by accident one day while exploring via motorbike and stopped a while to wander around. This is a very small village with traditional style buildings. It's a great place to wander around and take photos and to stop for a meal at one of the cool guesthouses. Secret Garden or Rural House are both great choices for food. I bet it would be a cool area to stay the night; just be sure you have transportation.Written 9 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Elizabeth MShanghai, China13 contributionsMaybe if you like trees, and have some time to kill it is worth the stop. The entry is not more than 20RMB, and it is a really cool tree.Written 7 July 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- kikiadvisor69Wuhan, China48 contributionsOne of the best view I saw in yangshuo area. We went for sunset.
You have a 360 panoroma. Very impressive .

It's a pity that they built an ugly building directly in front of them.Written 7 February 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Houstonian88Singapore, Singapore250 contributionsTook a 3 segment tour and this ride in the Li river (漓江）was the first of the afternoon activities. The rafts were motorized and only able to take 4 passengers on each craft.
The total ride about 90 mins and you will end at the same place that you depart. The ride was scenic and relaxing. Recommended if you have time and are in the vicinity of Yangshuo.Written 1 October 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You can walk about and take in the beautiful surrounding scenery.Written 30 June 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sara SOklahoma City, OK838 contributionsThe Banyan tree is huge, but it is not worth making a special trip just to see the tree. The rest of the park is just typical Yangshuo scenery, beautiful but not extraordinary. If you go, be prepared to see lots of vendors and tourist groups.Written 26 September 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
