I declare! The landscape under the sunset in Guilin is the ceiling of romance on earth!

I declare! The landscape under the sunset in Guilin is the ceiling of romance on earth. It's so beautiful that I'm at a loss for words and can only press the shutter button like crazy! This is near Xingping Ancient Town in Yangshuo. Sitting on a bamboo raft and going down the river, the sky was still blue at first. The distant mountains were rolling, and the water of the Lijiang River was crystal clear. You could see the pebbles at the bottom of the water and the occasional small fish swimming by. The phoenix tail bamboo on both sides swayed gently, as if saying hello to me. Slowly, the sun began to set in the west, and the dazzling light became soft, covering the entire landscape with a layer of golden gauze. The distant mountains were no longer a single green color, but were dyed with a layer of warm yellow, like an oil painting carefully painted by nature with a paintbrush. The surface of the Lijiang River was sparkling, and the sunlight shone on the water, creating patches of golden ripples. The bamboo raft glided across the water, leaving long trails of water, which became glittering in the sunset. I also saw a few cormorants fishing on the river. The fisherman stood on the bamboo raft and gently waved the bamboo pole. The cormorants plunged into the water one after another, and soon floated to the surface with fish in their mouths. This scene was full of life against the background of the sunset. When the sun was about to set between the mountains, the color of the sky became more gorgeous and colorful. From golden yellow to orange-red, and then to dark red, the layers overlapped, like a beautiful picture scroll slowly unfolding in the sky. The distant mountains were also dyed dark red, which complemented the color of the sky, making it breathtakingly beautiful. I quickly took out my mobile phone and camera and kept taking pictures, wanting to record this beautiful scenery forever. But no matter how I took the pictures, I couldn't capture even one ten-thousandth of its actual beauty. At that moment, I was really shocked by the nature's uncanny workmanship, and I also felt an unprecedented peace and beauty. After staying in the city for a long time, I face tall buildings and busy traffic every day. When I came to Guilin, among the landscapes under the sunset, it seemed that all my worries were thrown away. If you have the opportunity to come to Guilin, be sure to find an evening to sit on a bamboo raft on the Lijiang River, or find a good spot by the river and quietly enjoy the landscape in the sunset. This will definitely be one of the most unforgettable memories of your trip!
