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!!
