⚠️ Super useful tips
1. Book bamboo raft drifting in advance! Early shifts are recommended for fewer people and better scenery
2. Remember to bargain when renting an electric scooter, 30-40 RMB per day is reasonable
3. Don’t miss trying beer fish and bamboo tube rice when dining
4. The Li River is even more beautiful on rainy days! The misty rain is very Jiangnan-style
5. Wearing light-colored clothes looks better in photos
You must come to Yangshuo once in your life with someone you love! Cycling, drifting, watching the sunrise—every frame is as beautiful as a painting💕
