A great place to relax and relieve stress, I booked a homestay with my wife and kids about 2 hours away from Liuzhou. It started to drizzle when we arrived, but it didn't affect its beauty at all. Booking such a homestay online for just over 200 yuan feels very worthwhile. You can see the sea of clouds from the bed. The owner said there will be summer parent-child activities next month, such as catching fish, catching ducks, and swimming in spring water. I'll bring the kids to stay for a few days during the summer vacation next month. The trip is worth it.

At the border of Guangxi and Guizhou lies a city with beautiful scenery, low cost of living, and simple local customs, making it both a delightful place to eat and to have fun. The world is so vast, yet only Guangxi is on holiday, celebrating the March 3rd Festival. I made a special trip to Liuzhou for a few days and discovered that it is a hidden gem of a tourist city. Not only is its industry well-developed, but it also boasts rich tourism resources, numerous attractions, and plenty of delicious street food. Here, at the border with Guizhou, the ethnic minority culture is strong. If you also want to visit Liuzhou, you can refer to this practical four-day, three-night itinerary, which costs less than 2000 yuan per person. First, it is recommended to take the high-speed train to Liuzhou, then rent a car for a road trip. Liuzhou has many two-seater electric cars, with rentals starting at 1 yuan, which are cheap and convenient. Secondly, for a three-day stay, it is suggested to spend the first night in the Liuzhou city area, the second night in Mengwu Miao Village, and the third night in Chengyang Bazhai, as these three places have many attractions and activities.

Welcome everyone to visit. The scenery here is pleasant, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The ethnic minorities are warm and hospitable. It is not a tourist area, and there are no protective measures, so please go in groups, as the scenery on the mountain is quite nice. Personal recommendation for routes. You can head to → Sanjiang South Station. At Sanjiang South Station, you can rent a car by scanning the QR code for car rental (a driving license is required) Just navigate to Dàlán. The second option is to take a bus, from Sanjiang South Station → Liangkou, the current price is basically 15 yuan per person. Then from Liangkou, take another car to Dàlán, or you can ask the driver if they go to Dàlán. Drivers charging 15 yuan per person to Liangkou Township generally do not overcharge.

The hotel was really fancy, for a free upgrade and the room was truly amazing so were the staff. Very accommodating and helpful. I like the rustic and modern crossover feel of the room. Rongshui has a lot of nature preservations to offer and this hotel stay made it extra comfortable!

The Miao people refer to themselves as 'Mu', 'Meng', 'Daji', among others, and have gradually developed from a part of the 'Wuxi Man' during the Qin and Han dynasties. During the Song dynasty, one branch settled in the Yuanbao Mountain area of Rongshui, becoming the earliest ancestors of the Miao people in Guangxi today. The Miao people's distinctive wooden stilted houses, Lusheng dance, batik craftsmanship, and unique Miao folk songs, along with their richly imaginative myths, together form the colorful Miao culture. The Rongshui Miao Slope Festival evolved from a mass gathering for mourning ancestors and inspiring fighting spirit to a traditional festival for disaster prevention, prayer for blessings, and collective entertainment. Slope Festival activities take place from the third to the seventeenth day of the first lunar month. Among them, the Gulong Slope Festival is the largest in scale, with the festival held on the sixteenth day of the first and eighth lunar months each year. The former prays for a good harvest, while the latter celebrates the harvest. During the festival, various activities are held, including Lusheng competitions, horse fighting, horse racing, and playing games with peers.
