Xing'an County Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Quintessential stay

It was actually part of a staycation deal that we signed up with a tour group. Situated among the rice 🌾 fields, we had two options to leave behind our bags 🛍️ so porters will help to bring things up or, we sweat it out to make this worth it 😎. We chose the second, and hiked with some nice view of the field. The hotel was nice with all the amenities, but as it is summer and bit of moisture there; 🐝 insects problem was there. Again, we went for a evening 🥾 hike into seven head dragon trail (yes, that was the name 😉) only to meet a wriggling stranger with hiss sound 🐍. It was fun though !! #hikefreak #chinatravel #summervacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

It is the main peak of Yuecheng Ridge, the highest mountain range in Guangxi, named after its cat-like shape. The entire reserve is gourd-shaped, with a high middle and low surroundings, sloping to the southeast. The Bajiaotian in the middle, the Tongdapin in the south, and the Thirty-six Bao in the west are mountain basins, and the rest are continuous peak clusters. There are 10 mountains above 2000 meters above sea level, including Maoer Mountain, and 68 above 1000 meters, including Daiyun Mountain, Dazhu Mountain, and Jigong Mountain. The area is nearly 26.7 thousand hectares, of which more than 7160 hectares are designated as national reserves. Maoer Mountain is the main peak of Yuecheng Ridge in the Nanling Mountains, the highest peak in Guangxi, the crown of the Five Ridges, and is known as the "summit of South China". The mountains in the territory are high and the forests are dense, cool in summer and snowy in winter, with elegant environment and picturesque scenery. The natural landscape is both majestic, dangerous, secluded, beautiful, and wild. The older generation of proletarian revolutionaries, Comrade Lu Dingyi, praised it as a combination of "the majesty of Mount Tai, the danger of Mount Hua, the seclusion of Mount Lu, and the beauty of Mount Emei", and it is a newly emerging ecological tourism destination in South China in recent years. Guangxi Maoer Mountain Nature Reserve is part of the internationally significant key area of terrestrial biodiversity--Nanling Mountains. The Maoer Mountain is ancient, with complex terrain, mild climate, abundant water sources, fertile soil, and a wide variety of plants. It was established in 1976 with the approval of the People's Government of the Guangxi Autonomous Region and was approved to be included in the China Biosphere Reserve Network in 1999. The main protected objects are the original subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest ecosystem, nationally protected animal and plant species, and the Lijiang River headwater conservation forest. Maoer Mountain is not only the first peak in Guangxi, but also the first peak in South China. In 1990, Lu Dingyi praised Maoer Mountain for its "majesty of Mount Tai, danger of Mount Hua, seclusion of Mount Lu, and beauty of Mount Emei" in the old mountain boundary inscription.

Guangxi Little Jiuzhaigou | Lijiang Source Grand Canyon

Unexpectedly, Guangxi also has a "Little Jiuzhaigou", the water is clear, clean and emerald green, as beautiful as a gem. Guangxi Guilin's "Little Jiuzhaigou" is called Lijiang Source Grand Canyon, which is the source of the Lijiang River. The water is so clear that it seems to contain no impurities, and it feels like a desecration to reach in. After entering the gate of the scenic area, follow the stream all the way upstream. Along the way, you will pass many pools, Longtan, Bajie Pool, Swan Pool, each of which is as beautiful as a gem, from deep green to light green, the color is very pure. It's a pity that the weather is not beautiful, and it rains from time to time. What surprised me most was a large bamboo sea that I passed by on the road, which reminded me of the scene where Zhang Ziyi and Chow Yun-fat were comparing swords in the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Wandering among the scattered bamboos, I felt as if I had also entered the world of martial arts. The photos here are super beautiful, especially when wearing ancient costumes, the photos are very outstanding. There are also ancient houses in the bamboo sea, which look like a place where hermits live, very quiet. Stay at the Lijiang Source Resort Hotel in the evening, the room is spacious and bright, you can see the bamboo forest and Lijiang River outside the window, you can also barbecue on the opposite river bank, eating barbecue while watching the lake and mountains, very comfortable.

A mountain has four seasons, and the weather varies every ten miles

Guilin tracing stream jelly water·Cat Mountain Lijiang Source Grand Canyon The Lijiang Source Grand Canyon at the foot of Cat Mountain in Guilin maintains the original ecological appearance with high negative ion content, which is a natural oxygen bar. This is the source of the Lijiang River, where the water is clear and sweet. It is said that after the fairies bathed in Fengtan, they would come here to put up fresh fruits and fine wines, singing and dancing! For many years, the girls of the Yao nationality in the four major Yao villages of Huajiang, namely Cat Mountain, Duck Po Mountain, Stone Dog Head Mountain, and Chicken Ridge Mountain, have come to this pool to bathe and cleanse themselves when they turn 16, and then return to the village to hold adult ceremonies. The water here is clear and transparent. The so-called 'jelly water' and 'glass water' by the locals in Guilin are derived from these scenic spots at the foot of Cat Mountain, such as Longtan River Scenic Area (Leigongyan), Lijiang Source Grand Canyon, etc. The canyon scenic area is distributed with many deep and shallow canyon deep pools, and the bamboo sea of ten miles maintains the original ecological appearance, 'a mountain has four seasons, and the weather varies every ten miles.'

Xing'an Lingqu Canal

Witnessing a great engineering feat, the Xing'an Lingqu Canal. It was the excavation of the Lingqu Canal that connected the Xiang River and the Li River, opening up the waterway between the north and the south, which provided an important guarantee for the Qin Dynasty to unify the Lingnan region. A large amount of grain and supplies were transported to Lingnan via the waterway, ensuring a sufficient supply of materials. In 214 BC, the year the Lingqu Canal was completed and navigable, Qin troops conquered Lingnan and subsequently established the three counties of Guilin, Xiangjun, and Nanhai, officially incorporating Lingnan into the territory of the Qin Dynasty. ​Flying overhead with a drone, one can clearly see that the main project of the Lingqu Canal consists of parts such as the Plowshare, the Big Leveling, the Small Leveling, the South Canal, the North Canal, the Spillway Leveling, the Culvert, the Steep Gate, the Weir Dam, the Qin Dyke, and bridges. Although they were built at different times, they are interconnected and form an indispensable part of the Lingqu Canal. ​Located 3 kilometers southeast of Xing'an County town, the diversion pond on the upper reaches of the Haiyang River dam (also known as Meitan) is called 'Plowshare' because of its sharp front and blunt rear, resembling a plowshare. It is a stone dam with a water-diverting function that connects with the Big and Small Leveling. The dam is built upstream from the junction of the Big and Small Leveling, and the direction of the sharp angle is opposite to the main flow direction of the Haiyang River, splitting the river water into two, one flowing into the Li River through the South Canal, and the other returning to the Xiang River through the North Canal.
