It is recommended to arrive before 8am to avoid crowds and for better lighting. ✅ **Two Rivers and Four Lakes Night Tour** (take a boat if your budget allows, or take a free walk along Binjiang Road) to see the Twin Sun and Moon Pagodas light up, it's breathtakingly beautiful! 🍜 **Food Recommendations**: For lunch, try "Lao Dongjiang Rice Noodles", CNY 5 for a bowl of braised noodles, recommended by locals! For dinner, go to "Chunji Roast Goose", the signature roast goose is a must-order! **Day 2: Yangshuo Highlights Tour (Guilin → Yangshuo, 30 minutes by high-speed train/1.5 hrs by bus)** 🌿 **Yulong River Bamboo Raft Ride** (choose the "Jinlong Bridge → Jiuxian" section, CNY 160/raft, 90 minutes of immersive landscape painting!) 🛵 **Rent an electric scooter to ride along the Ten-Mile Gallery** (CNY 30/day), and stop by the popular cafe "Haruki Murakami" along the way to take idyllic photos! 🌄 **Climb Laozhai Mountain in the evening** (free! 20 minutes to the top) to overlook the First Bay of the Li River, the orange sky at sunset is stunning! 🍻 **Night stroll in West Street**: The bar "Xiao Ma's" is recommended, order a glass of "Liquan 1998" beer, and listen to folk music for a great vibe~ **Day 3: Xingping Ancient Town + Return Trip** 💰 **CNY 20 Banknote Background Viewing Platform** (navigate to "Huangbu Reflection"), remember to bring a banknote for a photo! 🚣 **Li River Fisherman Photoshoot** (CNY 50/person), take a blockbuster photo with the Internet-famous old man and his cormorants, and get 100+ likes when you post it on social media! 🍋 **Snack Recommendation**: "Guzhen Osmanthus Jelly" for CNY 3 a bowl, sweet and sour to beat the heat! 💡 **[Tips to Avoid Pitfalls]** ⚠️ Don't trust the "street touts" for bamboo rafts, buy tickets through official channels! ⚠️ Choose "Xie Dajie" or "Master Fu" for Yangshuo beer fish, group purchases average CNY 50 per person, avoid being ripped off! ⚠️ Bring a raincoat during the rainy season from May to October, the Li River water will be clearer! 📸 **[Photo Tips]** ✨ Wear Hanfu or a plain long dress for a super fairy-like mountain and water background! ✨ Use the 0.5x wide-angle lens on your phone on the bamboo raft to capture the ink wash painting effect! ✨ The hour before and after sunrise/sunset is the perfect time to take portraits with soft light
