Guilin Xiangshan Scenic Area Travel Guide
Scenic spot introduction:
Xiangshan is the symbol of Guilin. The scenic area includes three mountains: Xiangbi Hill, Fubo Hill and Diecai Hill. It is adjacent to the Li River and half of it is on land. The mountains and waters are interdependent. The mountains are alive because of the waters, and the waters are beautiful because of the mountains. The natural landscapes and cultural landscapes in the park complement each other. The mountains, waters, caves, islands, pavilions, terraces, paths, cultural relics and historical sites complement each other into a painting, which is beautiful and is the essence of Guilin's landscapes.Xiangshan was formerly known as Lishan. It is bordered by the Li River in the east, Ningyuan in the west, Taohua River in the north, and Chuanta Mountain in the south. The bright moon and clear water, the majestic green mountains and ancient temples, represent the essence of Guilin's landscapes and are praised by the world as the city emblem, which is unparalleled in the world. Legend has it that the elephant god in the sky stole the divine song from Yaochi for Sanhua Girl and brewed Sanhua wine with the water of the Li River. The unique natural environment of Xiangshan provides unique conditions for winemaking. Zhang Mingfeng, the magistrate of Yingtian Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty, called this place "Drunken Town" and lived at the foot of Xiangshan, calling himself "Lishan Man".
