At 19:30 on June 25th --- at 7:00 on June 26. Changan Town, Dongguan - Guilin.
I was here in Dongguan Changan town car, luxury bus (fare: 150 yen): soft seat, air-conditioned, car starting from Chang'an 19:30 (then also need to body temperature of the yo), cars will be at 20 : 00 to Humen bus station, and then on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen (Guangzhou - Shenzhen) Expressway, 21:00 to Dongguan Bus Terminal, and then directly to Guilin Bus Terminal. in the middle will be issued a small bottle of mineral water, not eating (if worried about hungry, it can self-generation of food), but two cars parked in the middle, of course, to "friendly"呀!!
1st day: June 26 Guilin - Dragon's Back terraced 7:00 am arrival in Guilin, Guilin bought a map (price: 4 million), bought the ticket hall at 7:30 pm (as far as I know was the first group of ) Guilin - Longsheng the car (at the time but also in the lobby of a health form can acquire a good, in order to buy votes), keep in mind is the kind of half-way to the next car, said the township to buy the peace (and votes Price: 11 yuan), not to sit directly, because the direct Longsheng, then come back down again. and then to the Ticket Office can be next to a restaurant to eat in Guilin rice noodle, though less, but also did not care to hurry, 1.6 yuan per bowl. condiment to put their own, and after 2 hours and 30 minutes of winding mountain road to reach the peaceful village at 10:00 am, when a bus from Longsheng - Dragon's Back terraced (CMB station car was called safe car parks), we directly got on (fare: 5 million), up winding mountain road all the way (heard of it only to the foot of the mountain before, but also walk up a). After more than 30 minutes to the peace parking lot. here explain a few names, where there was a lot of terraces, "Dragon's Back terraced" is the general term for all the terraces, away, "Dragon's Back terraced" car is the result of peace to the peaceful rural village, from the administrative division is Long Sheng Ping Village, Heping Township, county, we have seen the first one is the safe terraced terraces. So, cars from the Longsheng - peace - peace parking lot. Zaiqu before climbing terraces, and
The following will go to Dragon's Back from the Dragon's Back terraced terraces and departure time to tell you now so that arrangements for the road.
Ping parking lot - Heping Township - Longsheng, 7:20,8:50,11:00,13:00,15:00,16:30;
Longsheng - Heping Township - safe parking 7:30,9:00,11:00,13:00,15:00,17:00;
(If you were small, first class and second shuttle could go with)
Be seen from the above: If you want to catch the last departure from the Longsheng - Hoping Township - safe car parking to the Dragon's Back terraced fields, then you no later than 14:30 in Guilin must proceed because Guilin - Hoping Township need to 2 hours and 30 minutes, then to the peace village is about 17 o'clock, it should be able to catch up to the Dragon's Back terraced car.
If your case can not keep up, and then only in a peaceful rural chartered, and the price of 40 yuan ..
Arrived safe car park, the Mai Menpiao up to the mountains soon (fare: 30 yuan), in the vicinity there are many tour guides, if you only travel safely terrace, then tour fee: 20 yuan / day, from the safe walk to Dazhai terrace terrace If the guide fee: 30 yuan / day, I suggest looking for a guide, because mountain greenery and there are no signs to attractions go, I was looking for a one Aunt Liao, a tour guide (the whole village have the surname Liao Ping), the and the evening was lived in her house, and peace terraces there are two viewing places on the 1st scenic spots up from the school side, and arrived on the 1st scenic spots, you can walk around in its vicinity, you will find a very good shot venues. to listen to Aunt Liao talk to Dazhai terraced 3 hours 30 minutes to go, so it did not pay more to stay on the Ben Dazhai, and because it was raining, so not in a good way to go, listening to Aunt introduction; terrace there are three The best time to see, first is just the whole well, the fields, when filled with water everywhere watery one, and the second is now at this time (the end of June), the fields, when plugged seedlings everywhere is green, third is the maturity of rice is about "11" or so, when the rice matures, everywhere a golden yellow. here add, does not mean that when the other can not be overhauled, and only three of time to watch "Dragon's Back terraced" the best, you can choose your time to go over there.
Dazhai compared with terraces terraces and peace would be more spectacular, it is safe to say the village the villagers themselves. The fact that as well. After 3 hours and 30 minutes of the long journey has finally come to Dazhai terraces, Dazhai terrace there are two scenic spots, Let's go to that view of the above attractions, attractions in the vicinity of that concept, there is a "Belvedere" is to stay, but up to a separate camera, to pay 2 money, I do not think that necessary, because in the It had a very good location below the. There is also a concept of attraction, go to the following, because they are the mountain may have to go up more than half an hour.
Here I would also like to introduce another one to go the way Dazhai terraced fields, and now does not open directly to Dazhai terraced shuttle, only to sit pairs of the mouth and get off near the car in Dazhai terrace, or sit directly dahushan of car, and then ask a motorcycle or chartered to Dazhai terraced junctions. and then walk half an hour to get to the entrance of Dazhai terrace, I think it is better to go from the safe terracing, so that would be more convenient. do not charge interchange麻烦.
In addition, I would like to add something. Dazhai from the Heian to the terraced terraced walk, then if the trip is too far away, and the average person to walk for 3 hours 30 minutes (one way), if time permits, I suggest trying to stay one in Dazhai evening, where a lot of new Diaojiaolou (they are all the locals live, it is a kind of wooden houses, is quite distinctive) in hotel .. the cost is not expensive, 10-15 RMB / night. In addition, if the day of If you want to travel, it is best to eat a little before, because the road rarely tuck shops selling food, only water-selling, if you do not want to eat, then with one hand and from then, only eat at the farmhouse, about 5 Yuan / meal.
Dazhai terraced back safely from the terraces have been more than 5 pm, and then went on the 2nd viewing places took some pictures. Liao Aunt lives in on the 2nd spots below, and that "the moon Corner" (heard that a local viewing "Seven mixed month" the best residence) are also next to, "the moon Corner" was being renovated. uninhabitable. Aunt at home that night on accommodation, and it is to eat with their families. Liao Aunt house is also decorated in preparation for do family hotel. Liao Aunt family well, because the day of rain, my shoes all wet, and they helped me put the shoes to dry. accommodation 15 yuan / night, with meals: 5 yuan (also includes The next day's breakfast). Ping Ping Village is a terrace where the Zhuang, the village people, surnamed Liu, a local drink soju, is their own doing, and usually drank wine out of steam tumor is not the same, the taste comparison soft, easy to pronounce, and the degree is not very high, may wish to drink a little. all right. (Liao Aunt House Tel: 07,737,583,350) ( "the moon Pavilion": 07,737,583,005)
Night, stopped a little while electricity, but also outside, the light rain, surrounded by the noise is not loud voice, from time to time there are firefly flash, feeling very good. Slowly the snow to sleep, when the alcoholic is the night for three many points, still under a light rain outside, turn off the lights, went back to sleep. It was so spent the first day in Guilin.
Go to Dragon's Back terraced fields, then the locals can take you to walk a path, so do not need a Mai Menpiao. If more people go. This can Yeah, probably is to go a little way. Do not know of anyone selling tickets Here will curse呀!!
The next day: June 27 Dragon's Back terrace - Guilin - Huang Yao town:
7:00 get up, wash finished, ate breakfast (Aunt Liao to help cook a pack of instant noodles), and Aunt Liao children lead the way home, I take the stone path to safe parking lot (that is, Dragon's Back terraced entrance), Because those days few people, and the rain, so timing of the first and the second was a bus at 9:00 to go in a peaceful countryside vehicle (Price: 5 yuan, 30 minutes), then go to Guilin by car (Tickets: 11 yuan, 1 hour and 50 minutes away). At a time when experienced from the terrace down two from Hainan / Sanya over the MM. because they are going to Yangshuo, and I am going to Huang Yao town, the last of us Who also Shuifubule go on an appointment to meet in the Yangshuo.
12:10 car riding to the eight-step, in Zhongshan, the (fare: 25 yuan), and then forwarded to Huang Yao's car, this is the most convenient, but also the best route to go. Vehicle stop-go , at 16:30 only to Zhongshan, immediately to the ticket I buy a ticket, a question was to know, to Huang Yao 15:40 The last bus had gone. I immediately think of the gang learned, there is also a way Yes, sitting at the station outside the eight-step - Zhaoping car, and then level off in the West (ticket ride: 5 million), and then prepared to sit there, Gong bridge cars, Huang Yao went to get off, but when I go to Xiping time, locals say, OK go huangyao the last train at around 16:00 and walked out. was when I began looking for car can send me to, but said Tiangang rained, and have been 17:30 points, and are reluctant to go.
At that time I think there are signs on the 22 km mark, I would walk along the road, hoping to hit up the truck, but has no hit. Fortunately, in a village was to rent a motorcycle road junctions, surnamed Deng, are willing to saw me off, but the asking price 60 yuan, or cutting down the price is not, after 1 hour and 20 minutes away, Zhong Tian Guo Huang Yao at 19:20 assigned to. on the road under the rain, mud everywhere in Western culture, it is good to go, on the road encountered a few more surface, are trapped into the mud and can not go. motorbike Fortunately, the only point of the problem encountered in several places, but it is also very hard master motorcycle was already dark, but also to go back , and his two people who have found Town Restaurant (0774-6722307), and the proprietor surnamed Gu, eating the local specialties: Dougu steamed pork ribs (vegetable: 12 million), taste pretty good, it is strongly recommended, the boss may also be Recommended half a chicken (vegetable: 20 million), chicken, and other places I think about, is not recommended, Yanjing Beer, 3 yuan / bottle, again a water spinach can be the (fare: 5 million).
At that time the ancient town and met a restaurant owner's brother, was a old man, surnamed Mak (13,086,765,285). Can do guides, very nice, his long-standing restaurant will be in town. Tour fee is a pity I did not ask. Should be not that expensive.
After dinner, the sky is already dark down, and saying good-bye motorcycle owners who, I went to Mai 'R recommended "Rongyong Hostels (0774-6722320) on the top left of the town restaurant, (accommodation: 10 yuan / day) condition is also good, color TVs, water heaters are. the evening was knock on the door, thinking she was someone coming to live, and was originally the local police station rounds, simply asking a bit left, did not expect to live off here, so also outside personnel. so we go to Huang Yao, then, we must abide by the rules a little yo!!!
Here, I would say a few words of my 2:00 views: 1) from Guilin to Zhongshan car, a certain kind of fast ride, preferably direct Zhongshan, do not take the kind of sleeper cars, stop-go, very slowly a; 2) to go to Huang Yao, then best not to select from west to Huang Yao-ping, and the best to choose from Zhongshan - Gong Bridge Huang Yao car, this road that lies ahead, but more convenient to go by car there will be no transfer problems. from the West flat out, all mountain, which is a farm, closing off hills, and no others, and fewer cars, listen to take me to master Huang Yao Tang said: theirs hills recently there had been three robberies of tourists do. so strongly do not recommend yellow from the Xi-Ping Yao.
Here I will Zhong Shan - Huang Yao - Gong Bridge, Gong Bridge - Huang Yao - Zhongshan's departure time to tell you ..
Zhongshan - Huang Yao - Gong Bridge 6:50 13:40 15:40
Gong Bridge - Huang Yao - Zhongshan 7:40 9:50 16:00 17:40
Be seen from the above: If you want to catch the last departure from the Zhong Shan - Huang Yao - Gong Yao Huang car to the bridge, then you are in Guilin we must start no later than 11:00 because from Guilin - Zhongshan to 4 hours 30 minutes away, but must in time prior to 15:30. If you can not keep up car in case, then in Zhongshan stay a night, I think the cost should also not be high, because Zhongshan is a county. seldom vehicles will be willing to go, a total of Yao, and since there should be 3 hours away, and the cost will be high. In addition, we tell you that Gong Bridge - Huang Yao close to a maximum of 10 minutes.
In this way, in the car spent the next day .. the weather is still raining. Shoes, still wet ..
The third day of .6 28 Huang Yao --- Yangshuo town:
Because and Hainan / Sanya, two MM and the appointment today in Yangshuo, so early up, wash finished, check out, on the street, as well as selling buns, and took a few on the Benjin alley years, and Huang Yao is that, in the town and outside, a street, the streets, there will be hotels, etc.. from each of the junctions can be into the alley, alley inside the original building, there is a very old doors, floor full Shop is quartzite. inside a Yao River through the village, Huang Yao really has a lot of scenery and attractions, is a photographer and a painter who paint a good place, alley there yellow Yao specialty - Dougu for sale, I heard that this to do with soy foods, we must employ a local village, the water in a well to do, if done with the river or from the case, the taste will not work.
Such a stroll, the time is absolutely not keep up with first class from the Gong 7:40 Bridge, starting the car, and had to sit 10:00's car left the Huang Yao to Zhongshan County (fare: 7.5 million), after three hours of distance to reach Zhongshan 13:00, and then sat down at the bus station in Guilin Zhongshan car, in the next Yangshuo (Tickets: 20 million). the car has installed a car full of people, stop-go, after 3 hours 30 only to Yangshuo.
With regard to Guilin from Zhongshan car, I would like to add some of my views, Zuo Juhui Yangshuo, Guilin, or words. Do not sit inside the Zhongshan station, because I stood inside the car are few and very slow car, you can go to the station to sit outside, there are many steps from the 8 - Guilin car ride that fast. listen to the locals said, Zhongshan station, the high cost of many cars are not willing to pit stops, and some cars are private contractors, in order to Dora is like always reluctant to start on time.
This 16:30 went to Yangshuo, because the two MM before and Sanya appointment in Yangshuo West Street's "Bamboo restaurant" and the, so I went straight to the past. The first to see the West, the streets in general really feel a bit different, antique, many of which were wooden structure, and maintained that the original color, even the various banks and other signs are also signs around the same. really rare yo!! "Bamboo Grove Hotel" very good looking , from West Street has now walked, and then there is a marked sign, turn left to go into the 1:00 to go. Although the hotel, but I do not see the table, the main accommodation (accommodation: Single room: 30 yuan, Double room: 40 yuan / person), this is not the center of the West Street, it is not how the landscape, accommodation can also be in the room with color TV, water heater, separate toilet. This place is still a foreigner introduced, so even the water heater on the cold, the Heat are all labeled in English, and color TV remote control panel is labeled in English. proprietress of the business card is also almost entirely in English, only after the addition of an English name Chinese name. to see the MM, after the return to room showers of. appointment and so on will teach you West Street. (Bamboo Hotel :0773-8823222, 13,321,730,576, Cai Xiaomei)
West, English is called the west street, said that was not preceded by the street, because Western tourists who come to Yangshuo to play but after a long time reluctant to leave, then come here to simply open bars, shop, and lived here Therefore, to Guilin foreigners (some called it as "Ghosts") to Yangshuo West Street will play, some people say that here is the whole of China where the largest gathering of foreigners. because the people on the West as a foreigner majority, so many came here to do business with the Chinese people will speak English, listen to people, said an old lady selling vegetables on the side are a few words in English, as well as an old woman would actually say that the five countries language.
And two MM came West, first of all to stand to eat here, the characteristics of food, to "Peng big sister" shop sub-eating Pi Jiuyu we have chosen is the kind of loose bones of fish, price: 45 yuan / jin, and her Kandao 30 yuan / jin, to a relatively small, a jin 6 2, forget about a half kilogram, 45 yuan, where there is a Yangshuo specialty: snail stuffed .15 yuan / dish, taste can be Pijiu Yu, should be considered roast it, cut a piece of, which has garlic, radish-called ah, of course, a little beer, and then a platter filled with. like a big mixed-Hui. Quanpi Jiu Li River 3 yuan / bottle, vegetables 5 yuan / copies meal is a platter loaded to your own playing, and 1 yuan / person, they will be here to send flowers before serving to your health to eat, peel the kind of really rare yo!!
Listen 2 MM said that they had come to Yangshuo, the rented bicycle went to the moon, mountains, Car Rental 5 yuan / person, cycling is a Giant, and invited a guide, 20 yuan / day, and went to teach you a big banyan tree circle, because of the rain because the road very well go, there are a lot of mud, clothes, and even backpacks are all also. I think I have no time to go .. next time have a chance to Yangshuo, it will certainly riding a bicycle to head for one of the .. if you come, then, also are strongly suggest that you rent a car to head for a bike everywhere.
Finished, we go to stroll around, and the streets there are a lot of selling small handicrafts, there is a small wooden dolls, one inside the sleeve a little, and some have sets of three or four on the inside, as well as fabric system bracelet, above barbed rust, as well as batik clothes, wall design, wallpaper, as well as your demeanor that can be painted on a white T-shirt, but also a little cartoon image of the taste (do not know when it will wash off?), SARS has just passed, there are many SARS commemorative T-shirt and very character-shirts sold, in short there are many, we must remember that haggling is generally less than half a bit less. will depend on your own in . West still have a lot of Western food shops, cafes, decoration is very westernized, but also very particular about, antique, such as Red Star Express pizza, there is no American-style restaurant for breakfast, a coffee shop, under the moon, as well as "Yang Shuo section a burning, "They're out there on-site baking, I heard that booking in advance before they can eat in a day. In the West Street entrance to a supermarket, from a supermarket in the past some, there will be a relatively large gang bar.
After buying some souvenirs and then went back, "Bamboo Grove Hotel", where the boss to be ready by the next day Lijiang tour ticket (price: 50 yuan / person) in the morning 6:30 am is necessary to mind. Is a private boat, if they are Police catch local water will be fine, xingping - Yang Di. this section is the most essential parts of Lijiang River, locals commonly known as: Lijiang tour essence. and the prices are also relatively cheap (in the Guilin Lijiang River, then take the ship tour, luxury votes: 270 yuan / person, ordinary ticket: 180 yuan / person)
In the West spent the next day, here with the town's prosperity, the weather was also not improve, and hope that tomorrow will the weather is good, because one is using SMS to check the weather is a multi-turn showers, but these days it rains, the Li River has been closed Airlines , from Guilin down the ship had been stopped, in order to visit Lijiang 2 MM in Hainan has been postponed one day to go home. if they do not, then leave regrets .. I how compensation is not a:)
The fourth day: June 29 Yangshuo - Guilin Lijiang River --- 6:00 am on the alcoholic, and out of a look, the weather was good, nice, wash finished, and Hainan, two MM 6:30 meet in the hall, and then Under the leadership of the boss, in the West Street junction to the xingping stopped by a car (fare: 5.5 million), after 50 minutes to reach Xingping, because we are the boss at the hotel where the set of the votes, so get off after it was sent directly to the boat we sit, is the kind of small passenger ships, and we are also on board along with five people from Paris, France, like family. As from xingping - Yang Di is against the current, so speed boats slower, due to heavy rain had just had several, so the Lijiang River water is muddy erosion, the Lijiang River water relatively calm, the ship will be traveling to a very stable, so you do not have to worry about seasickness.
Ship after a period of scenery back of the 20th of RMB scenery, but there is no designated person rafts through, remember that we must prepare a relatively new yo, this is easier to recognize them, but listen to boatman said that the best scenic spots or in the shore, and later come back would be to dock, walk up a certain to go. the weather really well, even with the sun, you can climb up the bow, will look even better. pictures will be better. Here King everywhere, mountains and water combination to really impress, you raised the camera, so you do not know what a good shot, and before that impression that they are received from the screen, today finally see the Virtual. from time to time There are down from the Yang Di ship, to cheer us, there are fishing boats passing by the shore, some people in the laundry, and some small bamboo raft in the draw is really a perfect landscape. Lijiang River scenery is a kind of said, no taste, or to be gradually came to appreciate the time you go to bar!!
Yang Di is necessary to turn around near the boat sail, because the pier would be people who, because it is a private boat caught will be fined, "the nine horse painting Mountain" or from the Yang Di - xingping, back when the best-looking, it will be fully displayed in your immediate. After two hours of run-length, the ship will return to xingping, the ship will not dock will be at the pier not far from the dock, and you have to walk a ways to to the Hindu Ping sat down car, on the way to 20 would be best cinematography Department of RMB, in which each of us pictures of a few, and then to sit Xingping - Yangshuo vehicle (fare: 5.5 million), a 50-minute walk reached Yangshuo.
Check out the West, around 11:00, in Yangshuo Bus Station, sitting Yangshuo Guilin --- car (fare: 10 yuan), car quickly and many, halfway slept, after 1 hour and 20 minutes .13:20 journey to reach Guilin Train Station (Guilin Yang Shuo to the cars parked here), near a public toilet (no charge), and then walk a ways to go to the Guilin Bus Station, in the bus station to find a car inside ( Guilin - Shenzhen) is a sleeper, there are air-conditioned, after Dongguan City, Dalingshan, bus station and then to Chang'an, the driver can talk about price (on a good fare: 80 million). Hainan 2 MM is also where to find the car, but 15:30 is necessary to proceed, then we went to the "good Aunt food court," outside the station opposite the road you can take a bus, ticket vending vehicles (1 yuan / person), in the "central square "get off, there are two stops away," Good Aunt food court "in the fourth floor of that building, a pity that our time has come to the noon closing time (Saturdays and Sundays at noon for a meal time is 11:00 -14:00), we ate at a roadside store, three bowls of rice noodles, originally intended to go to Elephant Trunk Hill Park, Riverside Road, etc. take a look, but look very much time, directly back to the station. the car was originally say 16:00 to go, but only until 5:10 p.m. start.
Cars parked on the road a place to eat, cars are not very good, I feel very comfortable, if you want to take a comfortable car, then advise you to sit still that from Guilin - Dongguan - Humen - Changan direct luxury cars ( Tickets: 150 yuan), air conditioning, soft seats. the car does not seem to take too much highway, so in June 30 until 8:00 am to Chang'an bus stop. and then went home.
In this way the whole journey will end, and there are not many good places to go, such as kwan'am (which is found in foreigners), Seven Star Crags (in Guilin), in Yangshuo cycling stroll (a lot of people will choose to play items), and fishing (because Clinton went to become famous for), Guangxi Normal University Division (formerly the Qing dynasty palace, and now maintaining the original), the liberation of bridge and so on. Next, if there are opportunities, I certainly would Zaiqu of J
Through this trip, there are a few tips for you Mix reference:
1. Wash items still have to bring along, it is best that a small package, so that when they use and bring more convenient.

5. To the "yellow Yao", we must pay attention to a matter of time (from start to Huang Zhong Shan Yao last bus is 15:40), and must be in Zhongshan car, do not level up from the West.
6. To "Dragon's Back terraced", do not direct Longsheng, can be directly in a peaceful countryside car, where the car will go directly to the terraces. Liao Aunt and nobody answered the phone at home during the day may be because the tourists have gone out to looking for her words, it is best to call in the evening ahead of them (07,737,583,350).
7. Lijiang tour, then you can go to Yangshuo, to xingping, sitting xingping - Yang Di of the ship, this section is the most essence part of the Lijiang River, you can stay at the owner of the cargo to be ready (ticket: 50 yuan ), they will help you contact boatman, and so you do not have to worry about too much, of course, you can own cars to Xingping, because the pier is not a private passenger vessel, the catch will be a fine of 20000 Therefore, a way to walk only after the private passenger ships. prices and the boatman cut ..
