    A relatively unknown but magnificent scenic area. At Bajiaozhai Scenic Area, taking the cable car to the top reveals a breathtaking view of whales playing in the sea, a truly awe-inspiring sight. This area also marks the border between Hunan and Guangxi provinces; the other side of the mountain is Guangxi. At the summit is a row of temples, the left one belonging to Guangxi, built during the Tang Dynasty, and the right one to Hunan, built during the Song Dynasty. Walking around to the back of the temples to see the Guangxi scenery is even more breathtaking than the Hunan side. Particularly impressive is the Dragon Head Incense Burner. It's practically a single, incredibly thin cliff face. Walking along the cliff to the very top to offer incense is said to be incredibly narrow, sometimes only 10 centimeters wide! Unfortunately, only a package ticket is available, including four or five attractions. However, I wasn't feeling well today, so I only visited one attraction before heading back to the hotel. Apparently, one ticket is valid for three days; I'll check it out tomorrow.

    There are terraced fields, and the scenery looks quite nice. Those who haven't been can check it out, but the locals aren't great; parking fees are outrageous and severely damage the image of ethnic minorities, especially the Yao people!

    The scenery was beautiful, but it was a bit of a shame that the hot air balloons weren't running during the off-season. The photos turned out great. My only complaint is that the moon-shaped shuttle bus is charged by the minute at 2.2 yuan per minute, with a minimum rental of half an hour; you can't buy it outright. It would be better if they offered a buy-out price, since you can't leave for more than a few hours once you're inside.

    I came here specifically to watch the sunset. The overall environment of the park is good, but there are too few signboards. I have to ask passers-by. The service in the scenic area needs to be improved. You can see the panoramic view of Guilin city. It is still worth a visit.

    This was my second visit to Reed Flute Cave, and the experience was quite good. 1. The ticket price is very reasonable, and there's a free guided tour that helps us better understand the significance of the cave. The guide's folk songs were also excellent, showcasing the unique characteristics of Guangxi. 2. The scenery is beautiful; the cave is full of strange and wonderful things, and with a little imagination, you can experience a lot. 3. The scenic area is constantly improving and developing; transparent signs have been added to each viewing area to help visitors understand where they are.

    The cave is nice, and the scenery outside the scenic area is also beautiful. You can directly locate the "Ludiyan Ticket Center" when taking a taxi, get off opposite the security booth, and climb up the steps. You don't need to take the train. Buy the ticket one hour in advance and scan the code to enter. You can finish the tour in less than an hour. There is a lake outside with beautiful scenery. You can stroll around.

    Our guide at Jingjiang Prince's City, Mr. Wen, was very enthusiastic and provided detailed explanations, leading us on a tour. Although the Prince's Palace Rubbing activity was relatively simple, it was still meaningful to make your own rubbing of a historically significant character for good fortune and take it home as a keepsake.
