Guangxi Self-driving Tour (Twenty-four)

Liuzhou is the largest industrial city in Guangxi and also a historical city that is a transportation hub. The old city of Liuzhou is located on a peninsula surrounded by the Liujiang River. Many of the ancient cities and towns we have visited are located on such terrain, which should have been formed because it is suitable for living, convenient for water transportation and has defensive functions. The current urban area of ​​Liuzhou is no longer the same as it used to be. The big bend of Liujiang River has been surrounded by the urban area. The night view of Liujiang River is a business card of Liuzhou. The lights on both sides are bright, the bridge across the river is like a rainbow, and cruise ships shuttle back and forth. The river bank near the musical fountain attracts the most tourists, while Liuzhou locals prefer the artificial waterfall on the east bank of the river. The East Gate Tower is like an old man quietly watching the river flow eastward and the passage of time. From here, you can stroll west to the Five-Star Pedestrian Street, and along the street to the north is another bustling and prosperous scene. There is also a musical fountain at the People's Square to the north of the pedestrian street, but there are fewer people there. It is a place for locals to relax and exercise. Yaobu ​​Ancient Town is a newly built tourist area in Liuzhou. It is dominated by antique buildings and local ethnic minority architectural styles, and integrates shopping, dining and entertainment. There are many tourists in the park, and many Hanfu photography enthusiasts have also become a scenic spot in the park. In the north of the ancient town is the Liuzhou Industrial Museum, which provides a good introduction to the modern industrial development of Liuzhou and is recommended for a visit. There is a water bus (Liujiang Ferry) pier to the north of the Liujiang East Dike Cruise Terminal. I tried it and forgot whether it was three yuan or five yuan. There were a lot of people queuing, so you have to go early. Liuzhou·Guangxi
