Yangshuo Park — Attraction in Guilin

Yangshuo is a fantastic destination that offers incredible value for travelers, especially by American standards. You can find a wide range of comfortable hotels starting around $20 per night.

The area is packed with exciting activities for all kinds of travelers. Adventure seekers can enjoy paragliding, hot air ballooning, rock climbing, and scenic hikes. Those interested in history will appreciate the chance to explore ancient towns and ruins scattered throughout the region. Renting a moped is also a popular and fun way to take in the stunning mountain landscapes at your own pace.

West Street is a major hotspot, especially in the evenings—it really comes alive with all the street vendors and crowds of tourists. It's a great place to soak in the local vibe, shop, and simply walk around.

However, it's important to stay alert for scams. Some vendors may quote one price and then try to charge more at the last minute, using all sorts of clever tricks. Be polite but firm, and always double- or triple-check prices before making a purchase.

I’d recommend staying between 1.5 to 3 days, depending on how much you want to explore.

Overall, Yangshuo offers a unique blend of natural beauty, adventure, and cultural charm—definitely...

Nice tranquil park very close to West Street. I stayed in Yangshuo for 10 days and was able to continue my calisthenics practice here throughout the stay thanks to the pull up bars, monkey bars, parallel bar, and numerous other bars in the park. During the morning it's such a good vibes with cool air and lots of shushu and aiyi (uncles and aunties) doing exercises, taichi, qi gong, group dancing, fan dancing and other forms of exercise. The elder community in China is very fit compared to other countries thanks to parks and communities like this.

You'll definitely be more motivated and influenced by the local community here to stay fit and get moving.

There is also a walking path around for walker and joggers.

There are lots of trees so even during the peak sun times in summer you can spend the day under the trees to avoid the hest and get some good nature vibes.

There is also a small rock you can climb up to see the view of Yangshuo from a height, it's a very easy climb with steps, takes less than 10 minutes to get to the top and good for all sizes and ages of people. The view is also quite satisfactory.

Also there is a small lake/pond, which...

The walk up is not that tough as people say in my opinion , took us 30 mins with water breaks in the middle. The view up there is definitely worth the climb! When you get to the very top there will be a locked gate, shout hello a few times and the man who lives there should come down and open it for 10 yuan each. The view was again absolutely amazing! The stairs up are hidden in between a few alleys. The best way to find it easily is by looking at the map in MAPS.ME , it has a correct depiction of the way up including the entrance location, there are also signs in Chinese with an arrow , the signs are the hanzi for up and mountain, up is a line at the base with a perpendicular line pointing up, mountain looks like the tip of a trident. Good luck and...
