What travellers say about Yulin
Anonymous user21 February 2026
4.0
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.

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.

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.
