Nanning, an underrated treasure capital city worth visiting

This city has a slow pace of life, friendly people, many electric scooters, and high cost-effectiveness. It's a treasure city with great food and shopping, where people call you handsome and beautiful. 🗺️ Nanning 2-Day Tour Itinerary Day 1: Qingxiu Mountain - Guangxi National Museum - ASEAN Business District Day 2: Yuanyang Building - Tangren Cultural Street - Deng Yingchao Museum - Three Streets and Two Alleys - Pavilion Wharf - Yongjiang Night Cruise 🎡 Recommended Attractions 1️⃣ Qingxiu Mountain Ticket: 20 yuan, 5A-level scenic spot. The Shade Plant Garden (near the North Gate), Guanyin Zen Temple, and the Ancient and Modern Crossing are all located here. If you have enough time, Qingxiu Mountain is worth spending a whole day on. 2️⃣ Guangxi National Museum Free, reservation required. Located by the Yongjiang River, it is a specialized museum showcasing ethnic culture, featuring the traditional cultural characteristics of the 12 indigenous ethnic groups in Guangxi. It's worth a visit. 3️⃣ ASEAN Business District The famous Nanning staircase is here, and there are many restaurants nearby. It's perfect to have a meal here after shopping. 4️⃣ Yuanyang Building "Z"-shaped staircase, symmetrical old residential building, full of a sense of age and stories. However, it looks very dilapidated in reality. If you are not interested in taking photos, you can skip it. 5️⃣ Tangren Cultural Street Close to Yuanyang Building, this street is full of antiques, old toys, and cultural items. It's a treasure hunting paradise, perfect for those who love to shop for unique items. 6️⃣ Deng Yingchao Museum Free, reservation required. I learned from a play that she was the wife of Premier Zhou Enlai. Here, Deng Yingchao's story is vividly presented before my eyes. There is a special exhibition hall displaying letters between her and Zhou Enlai, which are incredibly sweet. The love between the Premier and his wife brought tears to my eyes. 7️⃣ Three Streets and Two Alleys This area has many Guangxi specialty snacks, similar to the must-visit streets in every city, perfect for a city walk. 7️⃣ Pavilion Wharf European-style castle, as if you were in Prague Square. Come here to catch a sunset and see the rose waterfall. 8️⃣ Yongjiang Night Cruise The lights of Changyou Pavilion reflect on the shimmering river. There are people singing by the river, and everyone sits on the steps, swaying to the rhythm, quietly listening or softly singing along. It's a very atmospheric night. 🏨 About Accommodation & Dining It is recommended to stay near Mixc Mall, which is convenient for transportation and dining. Nanning has a rich variety of local delicacies and many great restaurants, including various types of noodles. The cost-effectiveness is very high. The pictures above are all from places I've tried and found good, for your reference. 💡💡💡 Travel Tips ⭕️ Be sure to bring mosquito and insect repellent when going to Qingxiu Mountain. ⭕️ The weather in Nanning at the end of October is super comfortable!! You can consider visiting during this time.

Guangxi's Most Beautiful Skyline

Since we took the high-speed train from Chongzuo back to Nanning early in the morning, it was already 4 PM when we arrived in Nanning, leaving us with limited time to stay in Qingxiu Mountain Park. We decided to take the sightseeing bus and only photograph the upper part of the park. Our route started with getting off at Tianchi, where we took some photos of the lake and the surrounding scenery. Tianchi is a large artificial lake halfway up Qingxiu Mountain. The water glistens, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, earning it the nickname 'Tower Reflection Tianchi.' Next, we walked to the symbol of Qingxiu Mountain - Longxiang Tower. The tower stands 52.35 meters high and 12 meters wide, with an internal spiral staircase of 207 steps leading to the top. It is the tallest tower in Guangxi. From the top, you can overlook the scenery of Yongjiang River and the new city of Langdong in Nanning. If you get hungry, you can visit nearby snack shops for a grilled sausage or corn, all freshly made and delicious. After visiting Longxiang Tower, we walked to Huanshan Xiuping, a large grassland where we could lie down and rest. This grassland covers nearly 100 acres, and lying on this green carpet-like field, you can feel a sense of relaxation and comfort, making it an excellent place to rest. Finally, we arrived at Guanyin Zen Temple. We didn't visit the temple itself but stayed here to photograph the sunset, evening glow, and night view. From 6 PM, we had our equipment set up, capturing the fiery sunset first, followed by the evening glow connecting the sky and earth, and finally, the starry night view, making for a spectacular conclusion. This skyline is undoubtedly one of the most impressive I've ever seen. Recommended Spots: Guanyin Zen Temple (night view, sunset, evening glow) Huanshan Xiuping Tianchi Longxiang Tower

Must-visit spots for a two-day trip in Nanning:

1. Three Streets and Two Lanes, a historical and cultural district, is a must-visit for its lively atmosphere.

Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Museum, which regularly hosts important and distinctive exhibitions, please pay attention in advance to grab tickets. This time I missed the national treasure exhibition and couldn't get close to the national treasure, the Ox Head, a must-visit for cultural tours. 5. Laoyou Rice Noodles, if you don't slurp noodles, don't bother coming, a must-visit for foodies. ps. For accommodation, it is not recommended to stay near Nanning East Station, just stay in the city center.

Qingxiu Mountain Night Garden ends today.

Qingxiu Mountain Scenic Area opened the Night Garden on August 1, which was originally scheduled to end on November 17, but was extended for another week, allowing me to experience it. The Night Garden is located in the Orchid Garden area of the North Gate of Qingxiu Mountain, and you can feel it as soon as you enter from the North Gate. The ticket is also CNY 20, but you must buy a Night Garden ticket, otherwise you will not be able to enter the park after 6 pm. I mainly visited the Dynamic Insect World and Dinosaur World, where the combination of dynamics and sound is vivid and lifelike, and is very popular with young children. I feel that these two factors are the main reasons for the Night Garden: first, Nanning is very hot in summer, and people are more willing to go out at night; second, parents have to work during the day and only have time to take their children out to play at night. The successful holding of the Night Garden provides experience for the cultural and tourism departments to explore the integration of night culture and tourism, and promotes the development of the night economy in the south.

Nanning, half scenery, half city.

Nanning doesn't feel like a bustling metropolis. It feels more like a small town hidden in a corner of time. No other provincial capital is like Nanning, with two completely different sides of the Yongjiang River. The left bank is full of skyscrapers and the hustle and bustle of life, while the right bank is the lush Qingxiu Mountain, with its endless natural beauty. So, the Nanning I experienced can be summed up as "half prosperity in Yongcheng, half Qingxiu in the mortal world." The most obvious feeling when coming to Nanning from other cities is that life slows down. You no longer have to work hard in a cramped and oppressive office building all day for a few pieces of silver. In Nanning, you can rent a small electric bike for a few bucks and ride through the green streets and alleys, along the dikes of the Yongjiang River, and feel the embrace of the wind that you haven't felt in a long time.
