Top neighbourhoods in Guilin

Xiufeng

Xiufeng District lets you slip behind Guilin's tourist curtain and into the rhythm of everyday Chinese life. Ancient city walls and Ming-Qing dynasty gates watch over tree-lined streets where locals practice tai chi at dawn. Wander through narrow cobblestone alleys, discover hidden courtyards, and snap photos of traditional architecture with distinctive upturned eaves. Family-run shops serve authentic Guilin rice noodles at budget-friendly prices in this walkable area. Simple guesthouses and converted courtyard homes offer intimate stays with genuine local hospitality. Most attractions are within easy walking distance, though public buses run every 20-30 minutes if you need them.

Guilin City Centre

Guilin City Centre captivates with its picture-perfect Li River views and dramatic limestone karst mountains. Traditional cormorant fishing boats glide by while ancient pagodas dot the skyline. The riverside promenades offer peaceful walking paths perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. Night markets light up after dark with lanterns casting warm glows over stone-paved streets. Dining options range from riverside restaurants serving famous Guilin rice noodles to street food stalls in buzzing night markets. Boutique hotels and traditional courtyard guesthouses provide comfortable places to rest. City buses connect major attractions, though the walkable waterfront district is best explored on foot.

Ten Mile Gallery

Ten Mile Gallery treats you to a front-row seat of nature's most spectacular show - dramatic limestone karst mountains jutting from the earth like something out of a fantasy novel. Bamboo rafts drift along the emerald waters of the Li River while traditional fishing villages dot the shoreline. Hikers and photographers flock to spots like Moon Hill and the Yulong River Scenic Area to capture those pinch-me-I'm-dreaming vistas. Local family-run guesthouses offer authentic stays with home-cooked meals featuring fresh river fish. Getting around means embracing the outdoors - rent bikes to explore or hop on a bamboo raft to see the landscape from water level. Morning mist creates magical photo ops before the day's adventure begins.

Qixing

Seven Star Park transforms Qixing into a natural wonderland where karst peaks pierce misty skies. Wander through ancient caves with dripping stalactites or follow emerald pathways past the distinctive Camel Hill. Buddhist temples nestled among bamboo groves create a mystical landscape where limestone giants meet manicured gardens. City buses connect Qixing to city centre Guilin, while restaurants near the park entrance serve regional Guangxi cuisine. Mid-range hotels and guesthouses offer great views of the dramatic landscape. The area's extensive trails and gardens make it perfect for travellers seeking natural beauty with a side of cultural significance.

Xiangshan

Guilin's cultural Xiangshan neighbourhood is loved for its gardens and waterfront, and visitors often enjoy its varied attractions, including Guangxi Guilin National Forest Park and Elephant Trunk Hill.
