Introducing Guiyang

Guiyang is located in the central part of Guizhou Province and is the capital of Guizhou Province. Surrounded by mountains, Guiyang is a veritable mountain city. Guiyang is also known as the "Forest City" and is known as the "Second Spring City of the Plateau". Compared with the passion and richness of the "First Spring City" Kunming, Guiyang is beautiful and clean. For most tourists, Guiyang is just a transit station on the journey. Few people seriously understand Guiyang, but this cannot conceal the simple beauty of Guiyang. Most of the scenic spots in the city are named "parks", especially famous for their karst landforms. There are endless lush green peaks, blue lakes and caves, and beautiful mountains and waters everywhere. In addition to the beautiful mountains and clear waters, Guiyang's other business card is comfort and ease. The pace of life in the whole city is slow, unlike the tense metropolises. At night, from the snack street to the bar street, it is very lively. This lazy and leisurely generosity and tolerance may be another attitude of this city.

Best time to travel

The best time to travel to Guiyang is in spring, summer and autumn. The temperature is not low in winter, but it is relatively cold and wet, so try to avoid traveling. Spring (March-May): All the flowers in Guiyang's parks are in full bloom, full of vitality; Summer (June-August): It is the best choice to escape the heat. The lotus leaves in Huaxi Park are connected to the sky, and Qianling Mountain Park is a good place for boating; Autumn (September-November): Go to Qianling Mountain to climb the heights and look far into the distance, or go to Huaxi Park to see the wheat waves and reeds rolling; Winter (December-February): Go to the still green Guiyang, climb the sparsely populated Jiaxiu Tower, and taste a different flavor.
