Stepping into Yulin Yuntian Cultural City is like entering a real-life mythical palace. Built against the mountainside, the entire cultural city is magnificent. From afar, its golden rooftops gleam in the sunlight, reflecting against the blue sky and white clouds. Looking out from a distance, the layered pavilions resemble a celestial palace in a fairyland, inspiring awe and reverence.

Darong Mountain is quite large; the mountain road from the visitor center at the foot of the mountain to the ticket gate is 6 kilometers long, and it takes about 10 to 20 minutes to drive between each scenic spot. Some sections of the road are narrow, so be careful when passing other vehicles. Because it's the dry season in winter, Tianhu Lake and Dalianchi Scenic Area aren't very interesting. Only Xiaolianchi and the windmills are worth seeing.

The antique-style streets and Guifei Lane in the ancient city are great spots for taking photos. Various lanterns and oil-paper umbrellas hang along the streets, exuding a timeless charm. Wearing Hanfu or Tang Dynasty clothing here will result in stunning photos in no time. The area also boasts numerous stalls selling intangible cultural heritage handicrafts and local snacks, such as sweet soups, pickled vegetables, and rice noodles, all at very affordable prices, mostly between 5-10 yuan per serving. Rongzhou Ancient City has now been selected as a national-level nighttime cultural and tourism consumption cluster. At night, when the lights come on, it transforms completely.

Xielu Mountain Villa boasts picturesque scenery and a timeless charm. Its pavilions and towers exude the Lingnan style, and a stroll through it feels like stepping back in time. With its attentive and thoughtful service, it is a secluded paradise worth savoring.

The scenic area is quite large, divided into several sections, accessible by sightseeing bus and cable car. The views vary depending on the location. Taking the cable car up and walking the loop offers beautiful scenery, showcasing the Buddha statue against the backdrop of mountains and valleys. The lakeside scenery in the Buddha area is also quite nice. Hiking to the Qingshouyan loop offers different views as well. You can also walk on the glass bridge and slide down the slide.

Well, it was just okay, but the price wasn't too high. The water jetpack segment was missing in 2026, but that's understandable; the market in Yulin is relatively small, and it's only been running for three years, so the NPCs are part-time rather than long-term trained. I still hope the scenic area for parents will continue to improve; things in the city are already slowly getting better.

The decor of this shop is truly thoughtful. The blue bricks, arches, and latticed windows of the Lingnan-style arcade buildings are all perfectly recreated, blending the Nanyang and Lingnan styles naturally, rather than being just another trendy shop piling on elements. I especially loved the window seats on the second floor; the afternoon sunlight streaming through the latticed windows created a particularly charming interplay of light and shadow. For taking photos, I recommend coming after 4 PM when the light is softer.

Pengdong Village in Yulin is quaint and full of charm. The traditional architecture tells the story of history, and the tranquil atmosphere calms the soul. The folk customs here are simple and the ecology is pleasant. Walking through it is like traveling through time. It is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle and feel the beauty of the countryside and the charm of traditional culture. It has been planned and added with various punch-in points, making it more attractive!

Very, very good 👍, give it all five points. As a 400-year-old ancient building, it is a miracle that it can be preserved so well. Go and see it while you can still go up to the second and third floors. It is very likely that one day it will be forbidden to go up to the building.

The environment is very good, the natural hot springs are comfortable, the shower room is large and clean, the only downside is that there are too few towels for washing, and there are not many places to get hot water. I hope such a good attraction will improve the software.
