Guihai Qinglan is a newly emerging cultural and tourism scenic area in Guilin City in recent years. It has quickly become a popular spot for online influencers due to its expansive grasslands, unique karst mountain landscape, and artistic architecture. Located in Qixing District of Guilin City, it is known locally as "Guilin's Altay" or "Guilin's Little Yili," attracting a large number of tourists with its "healing" mountain and water scenery.
Karst Mountains and Grasslands
The biggest highlight of the scenic area is the hundreds of karst mountains scattered throughout, along with thousands of acres of expansive grasslands. Standing on the grasslands, surrounded by uniquely shaped green mountains, the view is incredibly expansive, giving one the feeling of being in a painting or a secluded paradise.
"Sean's Farm" and "Cangfeng Wilderness"
Sean's Farm: A whimsical ranch area where you can often see free-roaming "Sean's" lambs, alpacas, and other adorable animals. Visitors can interact with and feed them, making it perfect for family trips and photo opportunities.
Cangfeng Wilderness: A large grassland within the scenic area, and the core area for camping, picnics, and outdoor activities. With its blue skies, white clouds, green mountains, and grasslands, it's often described as "Guilin's version of the Xinjiang grasslands."
Art, Architecture, and Installations
Guihai Art Museum: One of the core buildings within the scenic area, designed by a renowned architect, the building itself is highly stylized and artistic. It frequently hosts various art exhibitions, making it a must-visit for art enthusiasts.
Photo spots such as the White Sky Ladder and the Sky Mirror: The scenic area features many artificial art installations, such as stairs leading to the clouds and pools reflecting the sky, which complement the karst mountains behind them and are perfect for taking pictures.
Guihai Qinglan focuses on the combination of "landscape aesthetics" and "lifestyle". It is no longer just about "viewing mountains and waters" in the traditional sense, but rather about using Guilin's top-notch landscape resources to create a new and artistic leisure and vacation lifestyle, allowing tourists to drink tea, see exhibitions, camp, and relax amidst the mountains and waters.
