I am reverse traveling in Guangxi, discovering 6 off-the-beaten-path and free hidden gems

🍃 Guilin's landscape is the best under heaven, but there are many lesser-known cities in Guangxi hiding little-known secret spots waiting for you to discover 🌿 Sharing 6 off-the-beaten-path travel destinations in Guangxi, each one is free, avoiding the holiday crowds, escaping the hustle and bustle, and finding tranquility 1️⃣ Yangfan Avenue 📍 Location: Beihai, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free 🌊 Hidden in Beihai is a quiet, niche, free, and deserted white sand beach with fine and white sand quality, and clear blue-green waters, a place not even many locals in Beihai may know about. Follow the "most beautiful maritime road" all the way to the end to reach this beach. 2️⃣ Dadunhai Beach 📍 Location: Beihai, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free 🏖️ When coming to Beihai, everyone thinks of the popular Silver Beach, but actually, nearby there is a little-known beach with few visitors. The vast blue sea is clear to the bottom, and walking to the end of the beach leads to a lighthouse. In the evening, you can also go sea foraging, finding lots of conches and sand crabs. 3️⃣ Xiangshui Stone Forest 📍 Location: Liuzhou, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free 🏞️ This is a niche secret spot that even locals may not know about, hidden in Luzhai, Liuzhou. Here lies a peculiar ironstone forest, said to be an ancient seabed world from millions of years ago, with black boulders scattered across the grasslands. Trekking, camping, and mountain climbing here, with cattle and sheep frolicking in front of you, form a spectacular natural stone forest landscape. 4️⃣ Aibu Waterfall 📍 Location: Jingxi, Baise, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free ⛰️ Hidden in a small mountain in Jingxi, there is a jungle paradise that can be reached by car but has no tourists. Just a 1-minute walk allows you to see three groups of waterfalls at the same time. On weekdays without tourists, this place can be considered Guangxi's version of "Southern Luor", feeling the immense energy from nature. 5️⃣ Longyang 📍 Location: Pingguo, Baise, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free ⛰️ A real-life version of Zelda, with unique karst topography, rolling mountains, herds of cattle and sheep, and meadow sinkholes. An undeveloped trekking secret spot, walking among the mountains with cattle and sheep. 6️⃣ Jinhaiwan Mangrove 📍 Location: Beihai, Guangxi 🎫 Admission: Free 🏝️ Soft and fine white sand beaches, winding and charming coastlines, gradient jelly-like seawater, as well as the white Aegean Sea-style pier and pink ins-style castle, every scene exudes a relaxed holiday vibe. In the afternoon, you can go sea foraging for various kinds of shellfish.
