📝Note tips:
1 The best view for taking photos at Detian Waterfall is at the paddy field coffee shop in the scenic area
A high-angle view of the waterfall, you need to walk to the fourth viewing platform to see it
2 Longyang Sinkhole is undeveloped, there are no shops along the way, remember to bring your own drinking water and food, the water level in the sinkhole is very high during the recent rainy season, wait until after the rainy season to go

Forever moved by the landscapes of Guangxi!!!
Forever moved by the landscapes of Guangxi!!! On a spontaneous trip, I came to Chongzuo, this small border city. After arriving by high-speed train, I was immediately amazed by the city. It boasts ink-painting-like countryside, mountains all around, cascading waterfalls and springs, and the cost of living is very low.
This city fulfills all the fantasies of 'choosing a city to grow old in.' In such beautiful landscapes, time seems to stop flowing, and there is nothing that the landscapes of Chongzuo can't cure; if once isn't enough, then come twice! Next, follow my route and start your Chongzuo journey!
🛻 Chongzuo 3 Days 2 Nights Self-Drive Tour Itinerary
Day 1: Rent a car from Chongzuo South Station and head to Detian Transnational Waterfall Group, then go to Mingshi Countryside (watch the sunset here, accommodation prices are about 200-300 yuan).
Day 2: First visit Mingshi Countryside, then go to Gulong Canyon, Sandiequan Waterfall, Tongling Grand Canyon, Aibu Waterfall, and finally arrive at E'quan (watch the sunset here, accommodation prices are about 100-200 yuan).
Day 3: Depart from E'quan, head to Jiuzhou Ancient Town, and then to Longyang Tiankeng (if time permits, you can also visit Jianlong Mountain, which is on the way to Longyang Tiankeng), and finally return to Chongzuo South Station (if there is a relevant high-speed train, you can leave on the same day, if not, you can leave the next morning, accommodation prices are about 100-200 yuan).
⚠️ Sincerely recommend the following places worth visiting 📷
1️⃣ Detian Transnational Waterfall: Take a bamboo raft and drift under the waterfall, feeling the first healing that Chongzuo brings to you. It is famous at home and abroad for its unique beauty of mountains and rivers. ⚠️ The rainy season starts around June, and if you go now, water will be released upstream from 12-14 o'clock, and the flow is smaller at other times.
2️⃣ Mingshi Countryside: This place gave me a new understanding of the phrase 'Not accustomed to the mundane world, naturally loving the hills and mountains.' Drifting on a bamboo raft under the sunset with the sky and clouds, the distant mountains under the karst topography are like ink, like a scroll of landscape paintings.
3️⃣ E'quan: The water here is crystal clear, reaching the state of 'seemingly swimming in emptiness without reliance.' The fried fish here is both cheap and delicious, and a bamboo raft trip around costs only 10 yuan per person.
4️⃣ Longyang Tiankeng: Near Chongzuo in Baise Pingguo, there hides a place like a Zelda in the real world. 'The wind blows low and reveals the cattle and sheep' is vividly presented here, and the round trip hike takes about 3 hours, remember to bring a walking stick and water, and take sun protection measures.
5️⃣ Jiuzhou Ancient Town: Known as the 'Town of Hydrangea,' it is largely uncommercialized. Taking photos on the bridge is very photogenic, and you can enter for free after 6 pm.
6️⃣ Waterfall Canyon Group: Gulong Canyon, Tongling Grand Canyon, Aibu Waterfall, and Sandiequan Waterfall each have their own characteristics. Among them, Gulong Canyon offers rafting, Tongling Grand Canyon offers rainforest hiking, Aibu Waterfall and Sandiequan Waterfall are free, and the aerial photography effect is better during the rainy season.

Connected by nature...🇨🇳🇻🇳
China and Vietnam share a long border, however the most spectacular part of this must be the Detian Waterfalls in China's Guangxi Province. Around a 3 hours drive eastwards of Nanning, or alternatively south from Baise, it is reached by private car or public bus. To drive here, you can rent a car and drive yourself as the roads are in good condition and not difficult to navigate, or you can hire a driver. For the bus, you can depart from Nanning bus station, although this option is slower. Remember to bring ID or passports for buying tickets and for the frontier border check-even though you're not leaving a country, all vehicles are still inspected.
When you arrive, you board the sightseeing bus up the mountain, straddling the river that seperates the two countries, finally arriving at the top and the waterfall scenic area. You walk in a circular direction around the waterfall from the east side, offering spectacular close-up views of the whole valley. There are many observation points for photos or videos here. There are places to buy souvenirs and also vietnamese snacks. Be sure to try the cliff walk, glass bridge and the slide down the mountain for 59¥! Best time to visit here has to be mid-afternoon, so that you get both daytime and the evening sunset over the mountains range and waterfalls. A must-visit attraction in Guangxi and I highly recommend it to anyone.

mountain bliss...
Located around 2 hours drive south of Baise, China's Guangxi province, you will come to one of the most stunning places to visit in a China itself. This is the mountains that run along the China-Vietnam border region and there you will find Goose Spring, hidden away in it's secluded and picturesque wonderland.
Only accessible by private car...once you arrive, a short boat ride up to small river is a good way to begin the visit. This is the opportunity to see the local people and take in the unbelievable scenery that now surrounds you on all sides. Then take a walk past the gardens, pools and water wheels and take a leisurely climb up to the viewing platform overlooking the valley below. Here you can take an unforgettable panorama or the scene in front of you. Climb even higher for a walk along the side of the mountain trail. Any time of year is perfect to come here...even in the winter, the fog provides a mysterious backdrop to the mountains!

Beautiful valley in Jingxi
Yesterday on our way to Baise, Jingxi from Nanning, at half way, we stopped by the “Goose Spring”. 🦆
This place is highly recommended ✅, is a beautiful valley within the mountains ⛰️ that is combined with the green 🌳of the nature and yellow of the rice fields 🌾together with a gorgeous pound 💧, making this a very peaceful ☮️ and relaxing 🧘♀️🧘 spot 🏞️
To get there probably the best is to rent a car 🚗 or hired a driver, but we also saw some local buses 🚌 , that could bring you there from Nanning city.
The ticket fee is around 40 rmb per person and there are not much option for food, so better to bring your own.

Detian Waterfall's source: Goose Spring.
Also known as Ling Spring, Goose Spring is one of the three famous springs in southwest China and the source of Detian Waterfall. It is located 6 km south of Jingxi County. Goose Spring is not large, but it is scenic everywhere. The mountains in the distance and the spring nearby present different colors and artistic conceptions under different light. The peaks of Goose Spring are as green as a screen, the spring water never dries up, and the water is as clear as a mirror. When you come to Goose Spring, you must climb to the No. 1 viewing platform halfway up the mountain to overlook the whole scenic area. The photos taken here are first-class.

"Jingxi Goose Spring"
In Jingxi, a land of outstanding natural beauty, Goose Spring is like a dazzling pearl.
The water of Goose Spring is its soul. The spring water is clear and bottomless, with blue and green colors that seem to have been carefully mixed by nature, pure and free of impurities. Under the sunlight, the water surface is sparkling, like thousands of broken gold shining. The clear spring gushes out from the ground, continuously, nourishing the surrounding land.
The scenery by the spring is beautiful. Surrounded by green mountains and shaded by trees, it forms a natural landscape painting with the clear spring water. The ancient waterwheel turns slowly under the push of the water flow, as if telling the story of the years. The stone bridge on the shore spans the water surface, and the stone bridge that has experienced vicissitudes is full of traces of time.
The fish in Goose Spring are lively embellishments. Groups of colorful fish swim happily in the water, they play or forage in groups, adding vitality to the quiet spring water.
Whether it is the first ray of sunshine in the early morning sprinkled on the spring surface, or the afterglow of the evening sunset puts a golden coat on Goose Spring, Goose Spring shows its unique and charming charm, which makes people intoxicated, as if in a quiet and beautiful paradise.

A niche tourist destination for National Day - Chongzuo.
Every year during the National Day Golden Week, all tourist attractions are packed with visitors, especially famous ones. I hate crowds. To avoid them, I searched online for a long time and finally found a niche destination - Chongzuo. Although not as famous as Guilin, Chongzuo's scenery is just as beautiful.
Chongzuo is located in southwestern Guangxi, bordering the provincial capital Nanning and Vietnam. Due to time constraints, I only chose a few attractions, including Anping Xianhe, Mingshi Tianyuan, Detian Transnational Waterfall, Jingxi Goose Spring, and Gulongshan Grand Canyon.
Among these attractions, the most famous is the Detian Transnational Waterfall. It also attracts the most visitors, so be sure to arrive early! We arrived at the visitor center hall around 7:00 am, and there were already 200-300 people in line. The scenic area officially opens around 8:00 am. After entering, remember to queue on the left to exchange for paper tickets. Do not queue on the right!
Although the Anping Xianhe Scenic Area is not as well-developed, there are very few tourists. It is very cost-effective to find a local to charter a boat for only 200 yuan. The boat travels through the river, with beautiful scenery on both sides. The entire journey takes about 40 minutes, which is very pleasant.
I think Goose Spring is just average. If you don't go to Jingxi, there's no need to go there. The waterfalls in Gulongshan Grand Canyon are not bad, and there is Tongling Waterfall next to them. If you have time, you can visit both.
In general, Chongzuo does not have many tourists. If you want to find a place with few people and beautiful scenery during National Day, Chongzuo is a good choice.

The Dual Symphony of Natural Wonders - Tongling Grand Canyon and Goose Spring
Jingxi City, Guangxi, this magical land nurtures numerous natural treasures, among which Tongling Grand Canyon and Goose Spring Scenic Area are undoubtedly two dazzling pearls.
Tongling Grand Canyon, a national AAAA-level scenic spot, is renowned for its unique geological structure and magnificent natural scenery. The canyon, approximately 3.8 kilometers long, winds like a giant dragon along the southern edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Surrounded by steep cliffs, it exudes grandeur, as if crafted by the hands of nature. Inside the canyon, the Tongling Grand Waterfall, with a single drop of 188.6 meters, stands proudly in Southwest Asia, becoming a breathtaking sight in the hearts of countless visitors. The water cascades down from the sky, roaring like thunder, with mist rising, never ceasing throughout the seasons, showcasing the endless vitality and spirituality of nature.
On the other hand, Goose Spring Scenic Area presents a scene of tranquility and serenity. Goose Spring is located in E'quan Village, Xinjing Town, Jingxi City, and has been known since ancient times for the beauty of "Goose Spring Leaping Carp Three Layers of Waves." The spring water never dries up throughout the year, clear to the bottom, like a bright mirror reflecting the surrounding green mountains and the tranquility of the countryside. Small bridges and flowing water, water plants like silk, and flocks of ducks swimming, create picturesque rural scenery. At dusk, the 15-arch long bridge, illuminated by the setting sun, reflects in the water, resembling 15 round moons falling to the earth, enchanting all who see it.
Tongling Grand Canyon and Goose Spring, one dynamic and one static, one grand and one beautiful, together compose the dual symphony of Jingxi City's natural scenery. Here, visitors can feel the majesty and delicacy of nature, experiencing the resilience and softness of life. Whether adventurers or leisure tourists, they can find a home for their souls on this magical land.

Strongly recommend the niche travel destination of Goose Spring in Jingxi, Guangxi for the Spring Festival
🌿Destination Guide:
Guangxi, a place full of charm. Many people, when visiting Guangxi for the first time, usually choose Guilin, the terraces, or Nanning. But this time, on my second visit to Guangxi, I specifically picked some niche spots, such as Goose Spring in Jingxi.
🧭Attraction Guide:
Goose Spring is absolutely stunning! The mountains and water there complement each other perfectly, making it particularly eye-catching. Driving to Goose Spring is the most convenient; just navigate to the Goose Spring Scenic Area. You can park at the entrance of a guesthouse. As for the entrance fee, I didn't pay; I heard it's a few dozen yuan. The guesthouse owner told me to use the back door, and you don't need to buy a ticket in the early morning or after 7 PM. I caught the sunset when I went, which felt super worth it, and there were very few people.
🏨Hotel Guide:
I strongly recommend staying within the scenic area. The prices are not expensive, though during peak season, rooms might be unavailable and prices might go up. The guesthouse I stayed at was fantastic, with an ancient bridge where farmers lead their cattle right outside the window. It's just a few hundred meters to the back door, and parking is convenient. If you want to know the name, you can ask me.
👍Route Guide:
I went in September, and it felt like a great time to visit; the scenery was breathtaking. Driving from the city was quite convenient, though the streetlights at night were not very good. My husband wasn't feeling well that day, so we couldn't get up early to enter the scenic area the next day, which was a bit of a pity. But we saw the sunset, so it was worth it!
✨Other Tips:
Avoid going on weekends; there are more people and higher room rates, and the scenic area isn't very large. This place is great for flying drones; the scenery from the air or from a mountain perspective is also extremely beautiful! In short, as long as you think it's worth it, you won't regret going!

Goose Spring, it's so beautiful
Jingxi Goose Spring is an ascending spring in a peak forest valley. The spring mouth belongs to a karst cave and is a large underground dark river outlet. The main stream of the dark river is 21 kilometers long, and the spring water flows eastward to become the Goose Spring River.
These photos are straight out of the camera with no filters. Just tell me, isn't it beautiful? It's very cost-effective to take a bamboo raft here, only 10 yuan per person, cheaper than Guilin!
A small regret is that we originally planned to take a hot air balloon ride here, but due to the weather, it couldn't take off. Well, let's leave some regrets and come back next time!

Guangxi, you're missing out by not promoting this hidden gem of a small border town! It's so beautiful
The second stop on my self-drive tour of Guangxi brought me to Jingxi, where I discovered this treasure of a town with so many stunning sights: the crystal-clear Goose Spring, the hometown of hydrangeas - the ancient town of Jiuzhou, as well as various waterfalls, gorges, and sinkholes.

Local Advice: Must-Visit Scenic Spots in Guangxi—National Highway 219.
[Local Advice] After you have visited Guilin and Beihai, you must also visit the essence of the scenic border section of National Highway 219 in Guangxi, specifically in Daxin County of Chongzuo and Jingxi County of Baise. Fully appreciate the scenic border views.
If you have three days and two nights, you can follow this itinerary:
↓ Day 1: Depart from Nanning and first head to Anping Xianhe. This scenic area is not fully developed yet, maintaining its original appearance. Currently, it is not very crowded, but the scenery is as beautiful as a landscape painting. You can tour the area by boat or on foot. After the tour, enjoy a hearty meal of river fish, local chicken, and cured meat at a farmhouse. Then, head to Mingshi Tianyuan. If you are lucky, there will be a bonfire party at night. It is highly recommended to stay at Mingshi Tianyuan because you can take photos of the sunset before and after meals.
↓ Day 2: First, visit the Detian Transnational Waterfall between China and Vietnam. On the way to Detian, you will pass by Yuejin Feidu, a structure built in the 1960s that still serves as a water conservancy project. In the afternoon, arrive at Tongling Grand Canyon. The entire canyon is filled with refreshing spiritual energy. In Tongling, don't just look at the cave waterfall and underground river; also, don't miss the plants here, many of which are rare and protected species. There are plants that coexisted with dinosaurs in the Jurassic period (180 million years ago), such as the Cyathea, Guan Yin Lotus, and other rare plants like the Golden Silk Tree, Xianmu, Runan, Palm Tree, and Flame Tree.
↓ Day 3: Goose Spring, a small scenic spot that can produce blockbuster movie scenes. The idyllic scenery is picturesque, attracting countless people to take photos. If time permits, you can visit the ancient town of Jiuzhou, known as the 'Hometown of Embroidery Balls.' The last scenic spot of this trip is the beautiful Quyang Lake. Surrounded by mountains and water, boating on the lake reminds one of the water landscapes of Guilin, but with a sense of tranquility and comfort akin to West Lake in Jiangnan.

This is the city I love, and I regret not discovering it sooner!
As a travel blogger, I stumbled upon the journey to Chongzuo, this charming border town, by chance. As soon as I stepped out of the train station, I was immediately captivated by the city's natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. Chongzuo sketches the ideal picture in my mind of 'settling down in a city for life' with its ink-painting-like pastoral scenery, mountains surrounding magnificent views, cascading waterfalls, and low cost of living.
During my time in Chongzuo, it felt as if time stood still, and all worries dissipated with the breeze between the mountains and waters. I found that no matter how deep the sorrow, one can find healing power between the mountains and waters of Chongzuo. If one cannot completely let go of the burdens in their heart in one visit, then come again, until the soul is completely released.
Now, I want to share my Chongzuo self-driving tour route with everyone, hoping you can follow in my footsteps and experience this tranquility and beauty.

The beauty of Jingxi Goose Spring really depends on the time!
Goose Spring is very close to Jingxi, and we set off from Sandie Ridge: Sandie Ridge - Goose Spring - Hena Highway Roundabout - Quyang Lake - Longkala - Nanning loop. Goose Spring is just at the entrance of the scenic area, where you park and then fly a drone in to take pictures. The daytime scenery of Goose Spring is indeed quite ordinary, and it only really looks good in the early morning or at dusk. It is recommended to visit before 7:00 am or after 19:00 pm to see Goose Spring at its most beautiful. Taking a boat also has the charm of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. From Goose Spring to Quyang Lake, you will pass through the big roundabout of the Hena Highway, where you can take aerial photos, but currently, it is not the season and everything is just a green expanse, not very stunning.
ADALYN DAVIDSON
Jingxi Goose Spring, such a quaint and beautiful scenic spot!
If you enter the park early in the morning with a ticket🎫, a one to two hour visit is enough🕑. The spring water is so green💚 and clear that it's simply stunning😍! The mountain and pastoral scenery is also very characteristic of Guangxi🌟, and it's truly worth a visit👍!
The scenic area also has set up photo checkpoints📸, with an observation deck on the hillside where you can take panoramic shots🌄! For tourists in a hurry, following the marked checkpoints in the scenic area can be very efficient💪! I heard that entering before 8 am can get you free admission🎫, but unfortunately, due to scheduling, I missed out😔. The overall lighting for photography in the morning was a bit backlit😥, I think entering the scenic area in the afternoon might be better for photos🤔~
