Discover the Sun and Moon Pagodas: Guilin's Dazzling Gems

Standing proudly on Guilin's central axis, the Sun and Moon Pagodas shine like twin celestial stars. The 41-meter Sun Pagoda, a nine-story structure cast entirely in bronze, holds three world records and glows magnificently under sunlight. Its counterpart, the 35-meter Moon Pagoda with seven glazed ceramic stories, connects to the Sun Pagoda via an 18-meter underwater corridor. Gold and silver, sun and moon, these pagodas embrace like lovers in the Shan Lake, symbolizing eternal companionship—hence their nicknames "Lovers' Pagodas" or "Love Pagodas." Considered a must-visit romantic destination where couples should "hold hands and ascend together in this lifetime," they offer perfect photo spots with the blessing of "eternal unity witnessed by the sun and moon." Singles can visit the seventh-floor Matchmaker's Pavilion in the Moon Pagoda to pray for love connections. Stroll between the pagodas to enjoy panoramic city views from above or explore the mysterious underwater corridor. These iconic landmarks serve both as a "Tower of Love" for couples and a cultural beacon, captivating visitors with their unique charm.
