Guilin transforms after dark. Neighborhoods around Two Rivers and Four Lakes Night Walk take on new energy, new sounds, and new possibilities — and the best way to discover it is on foot, moving between venues the way locals do. Track down Xingping Ancient Town for the kind of night that only locals know about.
Guilin is surrounded by some of the most dramatic karst landscapes on earth, and walking along the Li River, through rice terraces, and past ancient villages reveals a landscape that has inspired Chinese painters for centuries.
