Guangxi Hechi | The landscape is not in the painting, but in the eyes.

Longjiang First Bay is absolutely beautiful! 🤩 I was planning to visit the Three Gorges of Hechi today, but I called yesterday and was told that the tickets were almost sold out, and I also read online that there were a lot of people, so I decided to go to Longjiang First Bay instead, which was the right decision!
👉 Bamboo Raft: The round trip takes about 30 minutes, and it's worth it! I took photos of the mountains and rivers along the way. The sun was shining and the breeze was blowing, which made me feel so good. You can climb the mountain in about 10 minutes and take a panoramic photo of the bay! The destination is probably halfway up the mountain, and the green mountains and rivers are really comfortable, which makes me feel like all the work pressure is released.
👉 Rafting: I was surprised to see the rafting, and the staff said I needed to bring a change of clothes. Actually, it's just swimming down the river. If it wasn't for the recent drop in temperature, I think it would be fun to soak in the river, especially for kids who would find it hard to resist.
👉 Snacks at the entrance: We went in at about 10:00 and came out at 12:30, just in time for lunch. There were many local villagers selling snacks at the entrance of the scenic area, such as corn, yellow rice, fried rice, grilled chicken wings, milk tea, blood sausage, fruit slices, etc. The prices were reasonable and the food was really good! The three of us couldn't resist buying a lot of food, hahaha. There was a large sugarcane field on the way out, and some residents were peeling sugarcane. Freshly peeled sugarcane is delicious, juicy, and sweet.
👉 Accommodation: You can stay in Jinchengjiang District the night before, which is about a 30-minute drive away.
