Guiyang, your summer cooling getaway!

Be sure to come to Guiyang to escape the heat this summer! Refreshing Guiyang is like nature’s air-conditioned room, just walking around can unlock a cool 20°C summer~

🌟Must-visit spots:
📍Qingyan Ancient Town: Wearing ethnic costumes for photos is super authentic! Be sure to try the special braised pig trotters, paired with fish mint dipping sauce—absolutely amazing.
📍Qianling Park: Watching monkeys fight is so much fun (watch out for food snatching), the 2.5 yuan ticket is really worth it.
📍Jiaxiu Pavilion: The night view is stunning, the ancient architecture under the twinkling lights is especially charming.
📍White Palace: Guiyang’s version of a "palace" and a popular photo spot, even more photogenic when lit up at night.
📍Qingyun Market: The nightlife hub for young people, offering a wide variety of snacks and street stalls all in one place.

🍽️ Food guide:
✔️Silk Doll (Siwa Wa): The most authentic old brand on Beijing Road, with over a dozen side dishes to mix and match.
✔️Chongwang Noodles: A decade-old shop on Caijia Street, with a fragrant spicy red oil broth.
✔️Beef Rice Noodles: Huaxi Wangji, remember to go early, queues start forming by noon.
✔️Doumi Hotpot: The broth at Xintianzai is rich and flavorful, be sure to add some soft sausage.

🏡 Accommodation tips:
It’s recommended to stay near the Fountain or Dashizi area for convenience. Our hotel was a 3-minute walk from the subway, with a snack street right outside. If your budget allows, you can choose high-end hotels in the Guanshanhu District, which have especially nice environments~

💡 Practical tips:
1. Large temperature difference between morning and evening, remember to bring a light jacket.
2. May to October is peak season, booking hotels one week in advance can save you a lot.
3. Didi is cheaper than taxis, and the subway basically reaches all major attractions.
4. Most food streets stay open until early morning, night owls are in luck.
