The best photos of Nanning aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Qingxiu Mountain Scenic Area and Yong River Evening Walk will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Yangmei Ancient Town for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
Nanning is the green capital of Guangxi province, a subtropical city where lush parks, the Yong River, and proximity to spectacular karst landscapes offer an increasingly popular walking destination in southern China.

Hidden photogenic spots like Yangmei Ancient Town reward those who wander off the main path.
