They are eager to experience the customs and customs of different regions, taste the special delicacies from various places, and feel the breadth and depth of Chinese culture. On a sunny day
Early in the morning, they packed up their bags and embarked on their journey to Guilin.
After several hours of flight, the plane slowly landed at Guilin Liangjiang International Airport. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei walked out of the airport with excitement and were immediately surrounded by Guilin's unique landscape atmosphere.
"Wow, Pengfei, we finally arrived in Guilin! The air here feels very fresh." Li Xiao said excitedly.
"Yes, I have long heard that Guilin's landscapes are among the best in the world. I have to experience them this time." Huang Pengfei also looked forward to it.
They took the airport bus to the city, and the hotel they booked in advance was right on the edge of the Li River. After putting down their luggage, they couldn't wait to come to the Li River Scenic Area. Standing on the bank of the Li River, they were amazed by the scenery in front of them. It was crystal clear.
The river is like a green ribbon, meandering between the mountains. The peaks have different shapes, some are like camels, some are like elephants, and some are like bamboo shoots. They are reflected in the river, like a natural ink painting.
.
"It's so beautiful, it's like a fairyland!" Li Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
"Haha, let's take pictures quickly." Huang Pengfei said, taking out his camera and starting to take pictures from various angles.
They strolled along the Li River, admiring the beautiful scenery along the way. Along the way, they met many tourists who were also traveling. Everyone was attracted by the beautiful scenery and exclaimed in admiration from time to time.
"Hey, where are you from?" an enthusiastic aunt asked them with a smile.
"We are from the north and have always wanted to visit Guilin." Li Xiao replied politely.
"Guilin is really beautiful. You must go on a cruise. It will be more interesting to see the scenery from the water." Auntie enthusiastically recommended.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei thanked their aunt for their advice and decided to experience the cruise. They bought tickets and boarded the cruise ship. The cruise ship sailed slowly on the Li River, and the breeze blew on their faces, bringing bursts of coolness. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei stood at the station
From the bow of the boat, you can enjoy the scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
"Look at the peaks over there, the colors become more vivid under the sunlight." Li Xiao pointed to the peaks in the distance and said to Huang Pengfei.
"It's true, I never get tired of the landscapes in Guilin." Huang Pengfei responded.
On the cruise ship, they also listened to the tour guide explaining the history and legends of the Li River, and gained a deeper understanding of this beautiful landscape. After the cruise ship traveled for a while, it docked at a pier. After they disembarked, they came to a small fishing village.
The villagers here still maintain their traditional way of life, with fishing boats docked by the river and fishing nets drying on the shore.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei were wandering around the fishing village, feeling the tranquility and simplicity here. As they walked, they saw many beautiful handicrafts hanging at the door of a small shop.
"Wow, these handicrafts are so exquisite." Li Xiao walked into the store and picked up a small basket woven from bamboo and looked at it carefully.
"Boss, how do you sell this?" Huang Pengfei asked.
"This small basket costs 30 yuan, and it is all handmade by us." The boss replied enthusiastically.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei thought the price was very reasonable, so they bought a few small baskets as souvenirs. After visiting the fishing village, it was already noon, and their stomachs began to growl. The two decided to taste Guilin's specialties.
They came to a local restaurant and ordered several famous Guilin dishes, such as Guilin rice noodles, beer fish, stuffed snails, etc. After a while, the dishes were served. The aroma of Guilin rice noodles filled their nostrils, and the white rice noodles were served with
The tender braised pork, crispy peanuts, golden soybeans and emerald green onions will whet your appetite just by looking at it.
"Well, this Guilin rice noodle is so delicious, smooth, chewy, and rich in flavor." Li Xiao praised it while eating.
"The beer fish is also good, the fish meat is fresh and tender, with the fragrance of beer." Huang Pengfei also praised the beer fish.
After eating, they took a short rest and then went to Yangshuo to watch the folk performance. The folk performance venue was very lively, and the audience was looking forward to the wonderful performance. After the performance started, the actors dressed in bright national costumes danced
They danced cheerfully and sang beautiful folk songs. They also performed some traditional acrobatics and magic, which won rounds of applause from the audience.
"These folk performances are really unique and let us feel the cultural heritage of Guilin." Li Xiao told Huang Pengfei.
"Yes, this trip is really worth it." Huang Pengfei nodded in agreement.
After watching the folklore performance, the sky gradually darkened. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei returned to the hotel, reminiscing about the wonderful experience of the day. They were full of expectations for the next journey, and they didn't know what the next city would bring them.
What about the surprise?
The next day, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei got up early, packed their luggage, and prepared to go to the next scenic spot. They bid farewell to the beautiful Guilin and embarked on a new journey...
After leaving Guilin, Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei got on the train to Zhangjiajie. Along the way, the two excitedly discussed their expectations for Zhangjiajie and imagined the magnificent scenery of strange peaks and rocks.
After several hours of driving, they finally arrived in Zhangjiajie. As soon as they got out of the train station, they were shocked by the unique landforms of Zhangjiajie. Surrounded by mountains, the peaks towered into the clouds, and the clouds and mist shrouded them, making them feel like they were in a fairyland.
"Wow, Pengfei, this place is so spectacular!" Li Xiao couldn't help but admire loudly.
"Yeah, it feels like a completely different style from Guilin." Huang Pengfei also looked around excitedly.
They took a bus to a hotel near Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. After checking in, they couldn't wait to go to the scenic spot. After entering the scenic spot, the first thing they saw was the Golden Whip Creek. The water was crystal clear and the fish were happy in the water.
The trees beside the stream are lush and green, and the sunlight shines on the ground through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of light.

"It's really similar, haha. The peaks in Zhangjiajie are really weird." Huang Pengfei responded with a smile.
They admired the scenery along the way and took photos. On the bank of Golden Whip Creek, they also encountered some wild monkeys. These monkeys were not afraid of people at all and shuttled among tourists, and some even reached out to ask for food from tourists.
"Wow, these monkeys are so cute." Li Xiao took out some snacks and handed them to the monkeys.
"Be careful, don't get scratched by the monkey." Huang Pengfei reminded.
After playing with the monkeys for a while, they continued to move forward. As they walked, they came to a fork in the road. One road led to Yuanjiajie, and the other led to Huangshi Village. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei discussed it and decided
Let’s go to Yuanjiajie first.
They took the eco-friendly car in the scenic area and arrived at Yuanjiajie. The scenery in Yuanjiajie is even more spectacular.

Standing on the bridge, people can't help but marvel at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.
"Wow, this bridge is so amazing." Li Xiao walked to the bridge cautiously and looked down.
"It feels so exciting, but also a little scary." Huang Pengfei said with a smile.
After getting off the No. 1 Bridge in the World, it was already afternoon. Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei's stomachs were growling with hunger, and they decided to try Zhangjiajie's specialties. They came to a restaurant in the scenic area and ordered three hotpots, Tujia
Bacon, rock ear stewed chicken and other specialties.

"Well, these dishes are so delicious. Zhangjiajie's delicacies are indeed well-deserved." Li Xiao said while eating.
"Yes, I feel so satisfied after eating." Huang Pengfei also smiled with satisfaction.
After eating, they rested for a while and then went to the folk performance venue in the scenic area to watch folk performances.

Standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking the surrounding scenery, they saw rolling mountains and clouds and mist in the mountains.
Floating, like a beautiful landscape painting.
They played around Huangshi Village for a while, admiring all kinds of strange peaks and rocks. Then, they began to go down the mountain. On the way down, they saw some local specialty shops, which contained Zhangjiajie's specialties, such as kudzu root powder and eucommia tea.
Berry tea etc.
Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei walked into a specialty store, and the owner enthusiastically introduced them to the effects and characteristics of various specialties. After listening to the introduction, they bought some kudzu powder and berry tea as gifts for their relatives and friends.
