A place that boasts a strange terrain that looks like a bowl of rice has been turned over Manbonglim is located in Xingyi, Guizhou Province. Since it is originally a warm southern region, rape blossoms bloom and fall early, when the flowers bloom, it shows a truly enormous sea of ​​rape blossoms. When you walk between the peaks and rape blossom fields between the villages, you can feel a strange sense of peace in its uniqueness and strangeness. In particular, this place is famous for the world's largest karst landforms, and the view from the observation deck by riding an electric car is the best.. I was simply amazed by the doline fields and limestone erosion created by the earth science class. They offer bicycle rentals at the entrance, so I recommend that you ride them and tour every corner of the town.. #China #ChinaTravel #Guizhou #Xingyi #Karst #Manbonglim #Rape Blossoms

Literally translating as Forest of Ten Thousand Peaks, Wanfenglin is one of China’s largest areas of karst landscape, famed for its tower-like fenglin formations. On either side of the valley, the karst hills rise from the horizon like humps on a sleeping dragon’s back. 🌲This area has what many popular areas lost long ago - a palpable sense of being well off the international tourist trail. And the best way is to cycling around instead of taking the suttle bus. The area is super clean with a sense of calm. make sure to take active wear because there are a lot of outdoor activities to do, and the best way to enjoy the area is by bike. All in all I would definitely recommend this place as it has not yet been discovered by the crowds ☺️ #naturalwonders#camping#nationalpark#lakes

Xingyi Wanfenglin: Karst Qiguan Wanfenglin is located in the southeast of Xingyi City, Guizhou Province. It is a national-level scenic spot, a national AAAA-level scenic spot, the most beautiful five peak forests in China, and the first batch of industrial and agricultural tourism demonstration zones in China. Wanfenglin belongs to the southwestern karst landform of China. It is called the China Cone Karst Museum and is known as the World Wonders. Wanfenglin consists of East and West Peak Forests with different landscapes. It is the largest and most typical karst peak forest in China. More than 316 years ago, the famous geographer and traveler Xu Xiake came to Wanfenglin. He also issued such a sigh: "There are so many mountains in the world, only the peaks here are forests." Xu Xiake once again came to Xingyi and wrote in his travel notes: "The peak of Cong Li, thousands of miles, is the southwestern odd."

Here, because of the distance from the hustle and bustle of the city, plus the mountains and the dreamy green, it is quiet and peaceful. Especially when the night falls, the entire scenic spot is shrouded in the starry sky, which makes people feel like they are in a dreamland. With this magnificent starry sky and the Milky Way, I gradually wake up from my sleep and greet myself. It is also a mountain peak and dreamy light and shadow, as if the fairy tale world is generally romantic and charming.

| A hidden wonderland of peaks, where the landscape soothes the soul. April in Wanfenglin is a healing poem written by karst peaks. Twenty thousand green peaks stretch into a sea, morning mist drifts over the terraced fields, and the smoke and glutinous rice fragrance from Buyi villages intertwine in the spring breeze. Cycle along the Nahui River, watch egrets skim over emerald rice paddies, and see the reflection of the peaks shatter into shimmering waves. Sit quietly on a hillside viewing platform, watch the sunset paint the peaks amber, and listen to the streams and insects play nature's lullaby.

My dears! It's been a few days since I came back from Xingyi, and I'm still obsessed with the scenery and food there😭 But first, a word of warning: you really won't want to leave once you've been! I've put together a super comprehensive guide, so save it before you go～ 🌄Must-see attractions, each one so beautiful it'll leave you speechless! 1. Wanfenglin Taking a sightseeing bus through the "Bagua Fields" and the karst peaks, every photo you take is wallpaper-worthy! Although the rapeseed flowers in April have withered, the lush green rice paddies and Buyi villages complement each other beautifully. I recommend going on a clear evening, as the setting sun casts a magical glow on the peaks～ Renting an electric scooter at the entrance of the scenic area is also super relaxing! 2. Maling River Canyon It's not an exaggeration to call it "the most beautiful scar on earth"! Standing on the canyon plank road, watching the waterfalls cascade down from a height of 100 meters🌊 The water mist on your face is super refreshing! Remember to wear non-slip shoes, as some of the steps are quite slippery～ 3. Guizhou Chun Distillery Scenic Spot A hidden gem for taking photos! There are vast flower fields, European-style castles, and a super romantic mushroom-shaped luxury hotel, perfect for taking photos with your besties📷 And the best part is, admission is free! You can also see a stunning sunset in the evening～ 4. Yuhuangding Peak The perfect spot to watch the sunrise and sea of clouds! Depart at 5am, and hiking in the dark is a little thrilling～ But when the first rays of sunlight pierce through the clouds and illuminate the panoramic view of Wanfenglin, it's all worth it! Sisters who are afraid of the cold should bring a thick coat. 5. Jilong Fortress The "Little Neuschwanstein Castle of Guizhou" is built on a small island in the middle of a lake🦢 I recommend buying a boat ticket to the island. There's a cafe and an observation deck in the castle, perfect for taking photos with an exotic feel! The surrounding lakeside walking path is also very pleasant for a stroll～ 🍜Local specialties, so delicious you'll lick the plate clean! ✔️ Chicken Soup Dumplings A magical combination unique to Xingyi! Savory chicken filling wrapped in a soft and glutinous dumpling skin, drizzled with sesame sauce and crispy soybeans. One bite is pure satisfaction! I recommend the old shop "Zou Ji Tangyuan"～ ✔️ Bamboo Pole Noodles Made by pressing the dough with large bamboo poles, the noodles are firm and chewy! Served with a secret meat sauce and sour radish, one slurp and you'll be hooked! Remember to add a spoonful of chili oil🌶️ ✔️ Mutton Noodle Soup So fresh it'll make your eyebrows fall off! The soup base is made from local black goats, served with thinly sliced mutton and sour cabbage, and sprinkled with chili paste. A bowl in the morning will warm you up from head to toe～ ✔️ Shuabatou It looks like shumai, but the filling is bamboo shoots, lean meat, and chicken soup jelly! Dipped in a special sauce, it's refreshing and appetizing～ 📝Travel preparations & precautions ✅ Transportation: Xingyi has an airport, but flights are limited. I recommend flying to Guiyang and transferring to the high-speed train (2 hours); taxis are cheap within the city, but the attractions are scattered, so renting a car is more convenient. ✅ Clothing: There's a big temperature difference between day and night in April, so bring a light jacket + long sleeves; the UV rays are strong, so sunscreen and a sun hat are essential! ✅ Avoid: The sightseeing bus route within the Wanfenglin scenic area is fixed. If you want to explore in depth, I recommend renting an electric scooter; don't buy "wild mushrooms" sold by vendors around the scenic area to avoid accidental poisoning. ✅ Reservations: Tickets for Maling River Canyon can be purchased on-site, but it's recommended to book in advance on the official WeChat account if there are many people. Sisters, Xingyi is really worth visiting multiple times! Both the scenery and the food are unforgettable～ Save this guide and let's go!✨

My dears, I am a travel expert who is keen on exploring niche treasures. Recently, I took advantage of the good spring weather in April to go to Xingyi. This trip felt like I had entered a paradise with beautiful scenery and various customs. Now I will share the super detailed guide with you. 📍Xingyi, located in the southwest of Guizhou, is a city favored by nature👏! It has the breathtaking Maling Canyon, the majestic Wanfenglin, the vast Wanfeng Lake, and the strong Buyi and Miao customs. The mountains and rivers here are not made up, but are breathtakingly beautiful. It is a great place to rest the soul and feast the eyes on the wonders. 🚗【Transportation Guide】 ✈️If you take a plane, you will land at Xingyi Wanfenglin Airport. Although the airport is not big, the routes are gradually becoming more abundant. After getting off the plane, there are buses and airport buses to the city. It is even more convenient and fast to take a taxi. You can start your journey in a flash. 🚌Starting from Guiyang, you can take the high-speed rail to Panzhou Station and then take a bus to Xingyi; you can also take a long-distance bus directly, and you can enjoy the unique karst landforms of Guizhou along the way, but the journey is a bit long, so be mentally prepared. The main form of transportation in the city is public transportation. Some attractions have special tourist buses, and you can pay with Alipay or WeChat QR code. If you want to go to more distant attractions such as Wanfenglin and Maling Canyon, renting a car and driving yourself is a very pleasant choice. You can enjoy the scenery along the way and stop at any time to take photos and check in. 🗺【Recommended tour routes】 Day 1: Wanfenglin - Xia Nahui Village In the morning, we went to Wanfenglin and took a sightseeing bus through the peaks and forests. The pastoral scenery and karst landforms were perfectly integrated. The scenery in front of us was like a slowly unfolding landscape painting😃. At noon, try the Buyi Eight Bowls. Each bowl is full of local characteristics, especially the braised pork, which is fat but not greasy, melts in the mouth, and is super satisfying 😋. In the afternoon, go to Xia Nahui Village, stroll along the country roads, feel the folk customs of the Buyi ethnic group, visit specialty shops, and experience the slow rural life. It is so comfortable to fall asleep at night accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds. Day 2: Maling Canyon - Wanfeng Lake In the morning, we went to Maling Canyon and stood on the edge of the canyon to look down. The abyss was deep and the rocks were rugged. The shock was soul-stirring. At noon, we enjoyed beef with sour bamboo shoots near the canyon. The unique sour taste of the bamboo shoots and the tenderness of the beef created a wonderful taste. In the afternoon, we went to Wanfeng Lake, rented a small boat, and sailed on the blue waves. We looked at the scenery of the lake and mountains, felt the tranquility and tolerance of nature, and couldn’t stop taking photos and checking in. 📷 Day 3: Guizhou Chun Scenic Area - Return During the day, go to Guizhou Chun Scenic Area, where there are romantic flowers, exciting amusement facilities, and fresh air. Take a stroll and relax your body and mind. Have a meal of chicken dumplings for lunch, which is a mixture of sweet and salty, with the deliciousness of the chicken and the softness of the dumplings blending perfectly. In the afternoon, we packed our bags and returned with great memories. 🌟【5 must-visit attractions】 📍Wanfenglin: One of the five most beautiful peak forests in China, the interweaving of peak forests, fields and villages is like a paradise. 📍Maliang Canyon: "The most beautiful scar on earth", with deep canyons and unique landscapes, you can feel the wonders of nature. 📍Wanfeng Lake: Surrounded by thousands of peaks and with turquoise water, it is a great place for leisure, vacation and water entertainment. 📍Xianahhui Village: A settlement of the Buyi ethnic group, experience ethnic customs and feel the simplicity and beauty of rural life. 📍Guizhou Chun Scenic Area: It combines natural scenery with recreational facilities, allowing you to enjoy flowers and have fun. 📌【Practical Guide】 🎫 Tickets for various attractions are often discounted if booked online in advance. Some scenic spots are free, such as Xia Nahui Village. 👗The temperature in Xingyi is moderate in April, but it is a bit chilly in the morning and evening. Bring a thin jacket, wear comfortable sports shoes when going to outdoor scenic spots, and do a good job of sun protection. 📸The light in Wanfenglin in the morning and Wanfeng Lake in the evening is soft and beautiful, and the photo taking is very atmospheric. Remember to bring a power bank. 🍜【Local food recommendation】 🥘Buyi Eight Bowls: It consists of eight traditional Bouyei dishes, covering meat and vegetables, with diverse flavors, fully displaying the local dietary characteristics. 🍜Sour bamboo shoots beef: Sour bamboo shoots enhance the flavor, the beef is tender, sour and spicy, and it increases your appetite. 🥣Mutton rice noodles: Xingyi’s specialty breakfast, with fresh and tender mutton, smooth rice noodles, and rich soup. A bowl of this in the morning will make you feel full of energy. 🥔Brush head: It is shaped like a silver ingot, with a paper-thin outer skin and is filled with pork, bamboo shoots, etc. It is fresh and delicious, and you can eat one in one bite. 🏨【Hotel Accommodation】 📍Wanfenglin Scenic Area: Xingyi Fenglin Yueshan Hotel has a superior location, close to the observation deck, excellent view from the room, convenient travel, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the peaks and forests at any time. 📍Near Maling Canyon: Xingyi Canyon Villa, with a quiet environment, close to the canyon, where you can take a quick rest after playing, and complete supporting facilities. 📍City area: Xingyi Fukang International Hotel is located in the city center, with convenient transportation, many delicious foods and shopping nearby, complete facilities, comfortable and convenient. 💖【Play experience】 During these three days in Xingyi, I felt like I fell into a picturesque world. The beauty of Wanfenglin, the grandeur of Maling Canyon, the tranquility of Wanfeng Lake, and the tempting delicacies all intoxicated me. Xingyi is like a melodious landscape folk song, and every melody is full of beauty. My dears, don't miss this treasure land, come and start your journey to Xingyi💕.

❇️ Located in southwestern Guizhou, Xingyi boasts a pleasant climate, making it an ideal year-round destination. Must-see attractions include Wanfenglin, a breathtaking karst landscape resembling a painted scroll; 🧩 Maling River Canyon, where steep cliffs meet crystal-clear streams; and Guizhou Chun Scenic Area, offering a blend of brewing culture and natural beauty.

The best time to visit is during spring or autumn to avoid the rainy season. 💯‼️

Xingyi, I really love this city. It has many unique landscapes, such as the pastoral scenery of Wanfenglin⛰️, the waterfalls of Maling River Canyon, and the magical castle of Jilongbao. When you come to Xingyi, you must visit Wanfenglin. It is one of the three major karst landforms in Southwest China. Plus, the limited-time rapeseed flowers in March are so beautiful! 🤗🤗🤗 📍Wanfenglin Scenic Area ‼️About 11 kilometers from Xingyi City Xingyi is about 300 kilometers from Guiyang ✈️By plane: Xingyi Wanfenglin Airport (few flights) 🚗By car: Navigate directly to the scenic area. The scenic area is large, so you can navigate to specific locations, such as Shangnahui Village, Xiannahui Village, Zhongzhai, etc. 🚄High-speed train: There is no high-speed train to Xingyi yet. You can take an ordinary train from Guiyang. 🚲Ways to explore the scenic area 1. You can drive. Most areas have parking lots, but the downside is traffic jams. 2. Rent an electric car or bicycle. The scenic area is large, and there are cycling paths inside! It's a very comfortable way to travel. 3. Find a good coffee shop in the lower left corner to enjoy the scenery! It's very relaxing. ‼️We spent two days in Xingyi. 📷Here are a few recommended rapeseed flower photo spots: ✅Baguatian (Eight Diagrams Field) It is a naturally formed Baguatian. You can only see the complete view by taking an aerial shot. With the funnel as the center, the arc-shaped distribution forms a strange "Baguatian" pattern. Now it is full of rapeseed flowers, and there are many people taking pictures around it. ✅️Fengxi Cafe It is located near Baguatian. There is a viewing platform on the second floor, and the sunset is in the opposite direction. If the weather is good, you can come here to wait for the sunset and take pictures. The rolling mountains, golden rapeseed flowers, and small streams, waterwheels, and villages create an infinite pastoral scenery. ✅️Hua Sheng Villa Rural Resort This place is large, and the first, second, and third floors are all designed for taking pictures! The scenery outside the window on the second floor, combined with the window, creates a very photogenic frame! But note that you need to make a purchase to take pictures. ✅️Near Xiannahui Village, compared to Shangnahui Village, there are significantly fewer people here, and there are walking paths in the rapeseed flower fields. 🌳Other attractions: 🔴General Peak 🔴Wanfo Temple 🔴Natural Bridge 🔆Tips 🟡If you walk around the villages, there is no entrance fee. 🟡Some parking lots charge a fee, but it is not expensive, at CNY 10 per day. 🟡Try to go when the weather is good, so the rapeseed flowers will be more beautiful. 🟡The sightseeing bus in the scenic area runs along the road on the hillside, allowing you to enjoy the pastoral scenery and towering peaks. 🟡The flowering period of rapeseed flowers is not long, and they will be gone in April.

Last summer, I took my kid to Xingyi, Guizhou, and they were completely captivated! They keep asking to go back! Without exaggeration, this was the most exciting trip among all the travels I've had with my child. As soon as we arrived, it felt like stepping into a fairy tale. We stayed in a dreamy mushroom-shaped hotel. At night, lying on the terrace, we gazed at the vast starry sky while enjoying the gentle evening breeze and melodious cricket sounds - pure bliss. The daytime activities exceeded our expectations: riding the paddy field train, slowly swaying through waves of rice fields; rolling up our sleeves and pant legs to catch fish and play in the mud with kids in the rice paddies. We could even grill the fish we caught - so fresh it was incredible! Riding ponies brought the joy of galloping; parent-child competitions of picking dragon fruit, followed by making rice cakes and tie-dye together. The kids had a blast while experiencing local customs immersively. Away from the urban bustle, the children truly embraced nature and found the purest joy. 🎈Itinerary: Day 1: Visit Jiaxiu Tower at night to feel its historical charm, then head to Qingyun Market to enjoy local specialties like sour soup beef hot pot, Dan's crispy duck, and grilled pancakes - your taste buds will be conquered! Day 2: Primitive Cave Exploration/Flat Belt Descent In the 18°C constant temperature cave, massive stalactites take various shapes, including some that glow. Looking closer, we discovered it was water droplets creating the effect - nature's craftsmanship is amazing! Experience flat belt descent, the weightless feeling during the drop thrilled both adults and children. Day 3: Wanfeng Forest → Paddy Field Train/Dragon Fruit Picking Ride the kid-friendly paddy field train through the scenic countryside, where every frame is a stunning landscape painting. After the train ride, start the fish-catching battle - the caught fish can be cooked on the spot, absolutely delicious! When tired, compete with kids to pick dragon fruit, then sit by the rice fields, leisurely enjoying afternoon tea while watching the sunset. Day 4: Yubulu → Visit the Tiankeng → Check in to Mushroom Hotel Enter the quiet, ancient Yubulu village with its stone-paved paths and birdsong, where time seems to slow down. Make colorful sticky rice and rice cakes with kids, pounding the rice into soft, sweet balls - pure happiness melting in your mouth. At night, check in to the popular mushroom hotel, opening the door feels like entering a fairy tale kingdom. Day 5: Mushroom Hotel → Guizhou Chun Scenic Area The hotel is like a fantasy castle with colorful flower fields, infinity pool, and a huge children's play area. Perfect for photos, and there's a lawn concert at night where families gather to enjoy music and precious moments together. Day 6: Huangguoshu Waterfall → Return Journey The three waterfalls in Huangguoshu Scenic Area each have their unique charm. Recommended visiting order: Main Waterfall → Tianxing Bridge → Doupo Pond. Buy round-trip elevator tickets for the Main Waterfall to save energy. The Water Curtain Cave path is narrow and slippery, remember to wear non-slip shoes.

Traveling Alone in Southwestern Guizhou ​A brief review of each place I visited: ​Wanfenglin: The top scenic spot in Southwestern Guizhou. There are countless peaks in the world, but only here do they form a forest. The shapes of the peaks here are similar to those in Guilin, but they are smaller, rounder, and more densely packed. Besides the beautiful view from the top of the peaks, renting a bicycle and riding through the sea of canola flowers between the peaks is incredibly relaxing. ​Fenglin Buyi: A newly opened, man-made Buyi ancient village attraction. It's similar to other ancient cities, towns, and villages I've visited before, with a strong commercial atmosphere. However, this scenic spot is indeed very beautiful, especially at night. I initially thought the ticket price hike of nearly double during the Lunar New Year was outrageous, but there were various performances one after another, such as the Buyi wedding custom parade, drones, fire pots, molten iron fireworks, fire breathing, regular fireworks, ethnic dances, and bonfires. The performances were long, and each one was wonderful, better than those in other "ancient" places I've visited before. The increased ticket price was worth it. ​Wanfeng Lake: A decent lake, a paradise for night fishing enthusiasts. Located at the junction of Guizhou, Yunnan, and Guangxi provinces. A 1.5-hour boat tour for 30 yuan allows you to take close-up photos of the internet-famous Jilong Castle and enjoy the breeze. What more could you ask for? ​Wanfo Temple: A temple with its main hall carved out of a cave on a mountainside. Nothing else special. ​Yuhuangding: Climbing to the top offers a panoramic view of Wanfeng Lake and some of the peaks. The Cloud House at the summit occupies the best viewing spot. They wanted to charge 68 yuan for a tea stall seat just to enter, which is ridiculous, so I didn't go in. There's a side path where you can still enjoy the view. ​Maling River Canyon: Just an ordinary canyon with a large waterfall group. However, it's the dry season now, so the water flow isn't substantial. I heard it's spectacular during the rainy season. Also, the rafting there is very exciting and dangerous; it's said that people die there every year. ​Nanlong Buyi Ancient Village: A Buyi ancient village. This is the first truly ancient village I've visited, so ancient that most of the houses inside are dilapidated. There are few people and no commercial atmosphere. I chatted with the Buyi villagers inside, and they said there are only a dozen or so families left. In recent years, the government has been guiding them to move out, as they plan to turn it into a scenic spot. You have to visit ancient villages like this before they're developed, as they are disappearing. It's really not easy to find such an authentic ancient village these days. ​Food: I finally found a place with delicious food. Lots of beef and mutton, lots of hot pot, and the portions are large, tasty, and cheap. There are also many kinds of rice noodles. I've tried rice noodles in Hunan, Guangxi, and Guizhou, and Guizhou's rice noodles suit my taste the best. What I appreciate most are the seasonings here in Guizhou. I don't know how they mix them, but they are numbing, spicy, and fragrant, perfectly to my liking. ​Xingyi, the capital of Southwestern Guizhou, is truly a nourishing place. The city is small, with beautiful scenery, good air quality, a pleasant climate, low prices, few people, a slow pace of life, and lots of delicious food. The downside is the inconvenient transportation. There's no high-speed rail connection to the outside (I heard it will be completed this year), and there are few buses within the city. Getting around relies entirely on taxis, and it's hard to get a taxi if you go a little further, so you can only hire a car. Although the supporting facilities are not yet perfect, given time, this place will surely shine.

#discoverchina One of the most serene and scenic place i have ever been. Being there just made me feel calm and at peace with everything. Beautiful place. I would love to go again!

It is said that watching the sunset is a most effortless romance. In Guizhou, the sunset is like an overturned palette, dyeing the mountains, rivers and seas with gentle colors. Fanjing Mountain, Guizhou’s “City in the Sky”, the sunset here carries a fairy spirit. The golden top of red clouds is outlined by the afterglow of sunset, immersed in the sea of ​​clouds and mountains, sometimes magnificent, sometimes fairy-like. As the sun sets, the sky is dyed orange-red and intertwined with the dark green hills, as if nature had overturned the bucket of paint, and it is stunningly beautiful. Waiting quietly on the top of the mountain, watching the sun set little by little, the afterglow sprinkled on your body, at that moment, time seemed to be still, and the mind received unprecedented tranquility. In the Umon Savannah, sunsets are another vast beauty. Standing on the prairie opposite the Buddha-viewing platform, the empty grass stretches into the distance, the afterglow of the setting sun showering unreservedly, endowing the grass with a golden sash. In the distance, cattle and sheep are leisurely eating grass, forming an idyllic picture. There is also the uphill pasture, through the seams of the pine trees to see the sunset, the sunset is especially gentle, sprinkled into the world is romance, the afterglow through the branches and leaves, forming mottled light and shadow on the grass, poetic and beautiful. Come to the top of Anshun Wanfeng, where the sunset is hidden among thousands of peaks and ridges. The hike up the mountain along the signs was a bit tiring, but it was all worth it the moment you reached the summit. Standing on the top of the mountain at an altitude of 1,480 meters, overlooking the mountains, the sun gradually sinks into the sea of ​​​​peaks, the sky is dyed orange, the continuous peaks are distinct under the afterglow, like a Chinese ink painting slowly unfolding, spectacular and shocking. The sunset in Guizhou is a dance between mountains and rivers and time, a gift given by nature. Find a time, rush to Guizhou, encounter a sunset like a sea of ​​tangerines, and store all the tenderness and romance in your memory.
