• Reed Flute Cave (Ludi Yan) - The driver-guide will meet guests in the hotel lobby at either 8:00 am or 8:30 am.

Reed Flute Cave is nestled in the hillside of Bright Hill in Northwest Guilin, near the Peach Blossom River, approximately 7 km from downtown. The cave is named after the reeds growing near its entrance, which are ideal for making flutes. Spanning 800 meters, the exploration takes about fifty minutes. Opened to the public in 1962, it is one of the most visited caves in China and globally, often referred to as the “Art Palace of Nature.” Inside, visitors will find numerous stalactites, stalagmites, stone pillars, stone curtains, and stone flowers, all illuminated in vibrant colors, creating a breathtaking spectacle. These formations are named based on their appearance. The Crystal Palace, where illuminated stalagmites reflect in the cave’s natural lake, is among the cave’s most impressive sights.

• Elephant Trunk Hill (Xiangbishan) - This majestic hill stands on the banks of the Li River, resembling an elephant drinking from the water. It is a regional symbol and a testament to erosion and time. Its unique shape makes it a must-see for visitors, often photographed as a memento of the river journey. Local folklore enhances its charm, making it a vital part of the cultural landscape.

• Daxu Old Town - Located on the north bank of the Li River, about 30 km southeast of Guilin, Daxu Old Town was built during the Ming dynasty and boasts a history of over 1,000 years. It is one of Guangxi’s four ancient towns. Established at the start of the Song dynasty, the town features a 2 km street paved with cobblestones, flanked by single-eave story old buildings with gray bricks and tiles. These structures, mainly from the Ming and Qing dynasties, are renowned for their magnificence, refinement, and practicality. Visitors can enjoy the narrow street with old-style shops, herb shops, and traditional buildings, offering a delightful taste of local style and national features. The residents maintain a relaxed lifestyle, though the town was once a bustling trading center until the 1930s when railways and highways replaced river shipping.

• Caoping Hui Ethnic Country - The Li River flows through the picturesque landscape of Caoping, offering a serene and breathtaking experience. As visitors cruise along the river, they are treated to views of misty mountains, lush greenery, and traditional water villages. The riverbanks are dotted with fishermen in conical hats, using cormorants to catch fish, a scene unchanged for centuries. The water is so clear that the reflections of the surrounding karst peaks create a mirror-like effect, making it a photographer’s paradise. The Li River at Caoping is not just a river; it’s a living gallery of nature’s artistry, where time seems to stand still, showcasing China’s natural heritage. An electric boat ride lasting about 50 minutes offers stunning views of the karst limestone hills.
