Who understands! Captured the glowing Jiangnan at the Sun and Moon Twin Towers in Guilin

Seeing it 100 times online is not as good as seeing it once in person! When night falls over the Two Rivers and Four Lakes, the Sun and Moon Twin Towers instantly transform into "Gilded Glazed Towers," with the shimmering lake reflecting golden and silver lights. Every few steps, you’ll want to pull out your phone and snap away📸

📍 Key check-in info:
✨ Location: Sun and Moon Twin Towers Cultural Park (right in the center of Shan Lake, navigation is super accurate)
🕣 Lighting time: Lights on at 18:30, off at 22:00 (extended to 22:30 in summer, don’t miss it!)
🎫 Tickets: Free to shoot from the outer circle! Entry to the towers costs 30 RMB/person (personally, I think photos taken outside look better)

📸 3 secret photo spots (crowd-free versions):
1️⃣ West Shore Trail of Shan Lake (near Binjiang Road)
- Stand on the lakeside stone steps to frame both towers and their full reflection without crowding
- Bring a small fill light to brighten your face; your skin won’t look dark in the night scene
2️⃣ Underwater Glass Corridor (the passage connecting the twin towers)
- Walking inside feels like "shuttling through light and shadow," perfect for side profiles or shy smiles, the atmosphere is amazing
- Go around 5:30 PM to capture both the daytime towers and the darkening sky, maximizing depth
3️⃣ Second floor of nearby cafes (like "Gui Coffee" by Shan Lake)
- Order an osmanthus latte, sit by the window, and take creative shots of the "tower in the cup," avoiding ground-level crowds

💡 Travel tips:
✅ Wear light-colored clothes! White and beige reflect light under the lamps and look better on camera than dark colors
✅ Renting ethnic costumes is super cost-effective! 30 RMB/hour at Zhengyang Pedestrian Street, including simple styling, perfect for shooting new Chinese-style photos
✅ After shooting, head next door to Zhengyang Pedestrian Street for snacks! Don’t miss Guilin rice noodles, oil tea, and boat cakes, just a 5-minute walk away

“The moment the golden and silver twin towers light up, I finally understood why ‘Guilin’s landscape is the best under heaven’ at night—it’s so romantic.”
