Li River Photography

Overview

Are you interested to Li River photography during your visit to Guilin or Guilin tour? Let’s see where we can take the amazing Li River photography and how we can make it.

The Li River Cruise big boats from Guilin to Yangshuo are a good option. On the outdoor deck of the big boat, you could take great pictures of highlight spots along the Li River, including Nine-horse Fresco Hill, Reflection of Yellow Cloth Shoal, Xianggong Hill, etc. No matter what the weather is like along the river, you could get a good experience of the Li River photography.

Xianggong Hill is another option for the Li River photography. It just requires around 15 minutes walk to the top of the hill. You could create your photography works at the viewpoint. The sunrise from the Xianggong Hill is stunning as well. If you could get up very early on fine days, it is possible for you to get the great pictures.

The Li River Cruise is the #1 Activity in Guilin!

The private Li River motorized raft offers you private space to enjoy the Li River photography tour. As at 28th March 2021, there are 2 x routes. One is Yangdi – Nine-horse Fresco Hill – Yangdi and the other one is Xingping – Nine-horse Fresco Hill – Xingping. The opening hours of the first route are from 08:00 to 10:00 and from 12:30 to 17:00 and the opening hours of the latter one are from 08:00 to 10:30 and from 13:30 to 17:00.

If you would like to make the local cormorant fishing into your photography works, the cormorant fishing demonstration on the Li River in Xingping Old Town offers you a good chance. The demonstration during the sunset are more gorgeous for photography. Under the order of the fisherman, cormorants stand on the bamboo pillar or dive into the water to catch fishes.
The most challenging point of the Li River photography is Laozhai Mountain in Xingping Old Town. On the mountain, there is no handrail. In addition, some of the iron steps are fully rusty.

​On rainy days, the steps could be very slippery and it is very dangerous to explore the mountain. However, the views from the top of the mountain are also beautiful. The mountain offers the bird’s eye view of the Li River as well. When you arrive at the top, you will take great pictures of the Li River. The journey to the top will be worthwhile when you see the breathtaking views.
