The orange sunset drapes Guilin's Mao'er Mountain in a romantic golden veil.

🌟Highlights: The main peak of Mao'er Mountain, the highest peak in South China, has an elevation of 2,141.5 meters and is known as the "Top of South China." Ascending to the summit offers a panoramic view of the rolling mountains, evoking a sense of grandeur. ❤Recommended reasons: The spectacular sunrise over the sea of clouds. In the early morning, as the sun slowly rises from the sea of clouds, the horizon is painted orange-red, contrasting with the mountain mist, creating a dreamlike, ethereal scene. It is also a national nature reserve, with 2,530 known species of vascular plants from 877 genera and 210 families, and 491 species of wild vertebrates, including 12 national first-class protected animals and over 60 second-class protected animals. It also preserves a large number of ancient and rare plants, such as hemlock and beech, which are "living fossils" from the Quaternary glacial period. ✅Must-try experience: Hiking and exploring. With rugged mountain roads and primeval forests, it is suitable for hiking enthusiasts and adventurers. In the process of conquering peaks and exploring hidden wonders, you can experience the magic and charm of nature. 📍Detailed address: Gaozhai Village, Huajiang Township, Xing'an County, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region 🚉Transportation guide: You can choose to drive to the Mao'er Mountain Tourist Center. You can also take the high-speed train to Guilin or Xing'an and then take a special tourist bus. 💰Tickets: The ticket price is around 160 yuan, with discounts for students, seniors, and children. 🏨Accommodation: At the foot of the mountain, there is the Lijiangyuan Resort Hotel, which offers many rooms and good value for money. At the top of the mountain, there is the Mao'er Mountain Scientific Research Reception Center, which is convenient for watching the sunrise, sunset, and sea of clouds. Camping tents are also available at the summit. 🗓Itinerary: For a one-day trip, depart from the tourist center around 8:30 am, take the scenic bus up the mountain, and visit the Rare Botanical Garden, the Red Army Trail, Laoshanjie, Sanjiangyuan, and Millennium Kiss, finally reaching the Top of South China.
