Today's Highlight: A natural scroll painting where mountains and rivers depend on each other
✷The beauty of the Li River is best known for its ultimate scenery, described as "the river is like a green silk ribbon, and the mountains are like jade hairpins." Strange peaks are arranged on both banks, each with a different shape – Elephant Trunk Hill is like a giant elephant drinking from the river, Nine Horse Fresco Hill resembles galloping divine steeds, and Yellow Cloth Reflection mirrors the mountains and rivers, creating a magical artistic conception where "water flows in the sky, and boats sail in paintings." The river water is as clear as jade, winding through the karst peaks, sometimes calm as a mirror, sometimes shallow and gurgling. Amidst the changing light and shadows, every frame is a wonderful annotation of ink and wash painting.
Note: For Li River cruise tickets, you need to provide the first page of your passport (the page with your photo and name). Please send it to customer service via WeChat, email, or WhatsApp after booking.





Reviews
Despite it being the peak of Golden Week congestion, we were able to communicate via WeChat from discussing the meeting point the day before to the bus pickup for our return, making our cruise very comfortable. The onboard meals were also plentiful and satisfying. However, in China, all minor communications are done through WeChat, so it might be quite inconvenient if you don't register for WeChat in advance.
