 Guilin's scenery is the best under heaven! Guanghai Qinglan is the ultimate spot 🎨 Every photo you take looks amazing!
Recommended reasons:
A hidden gem in Guilin! Experience card for the landscape painting scroll for just over 20 yuan 🌄
A fairyland not yet crowded by tourists! Swan Lake + Karst landforms all in one package
📍 Address navigation to avoid pitfalls
No. 22 Hangtian Road, Qixing District, Xinchang Guanghai Qinglan
⚠️ Don’t head to Swan Lake on your first visit! The gate is closed in the off-season (learned the hard way)
📸 Top photo spots
1️⃣ Green lawn with solitary peak
Lie on the comic-style lawn with a background of ink-wash painting-like Karst peaks
2️⃣ Boardwalk by Swan Lake
The light is softest at 4 PM! The lake perfectly reflects the mountain shadows
🐦 Hidden activity
Feed the black swans with small bread! The elegant food snatching scene is adorable
Even more magical on rainy, misty days (remember to wear bright clothes)
⏰ Suggested schedule
Enter the park after 3:00 PM → shoot the sparkling lake surface → wait for the golden sunset at 5:30 PM
Wearing Hanfu or white dresses makes for better photos! Don’t forget to bring a reflector
Pitfall prevention guide:
❌ Not much food inside the scenic area! Bring your own snacks
❌ Stone paths are slippery when wet, wear non-slip shoes
❌ Drones must be reported in advance (restricted flight zone)
