About this tour

🎫One-Ticket Service with Yangshuo Hotel Pick-up · Cruise the Iconic RMB 20 Scenic Spot


📅Opening Hours:

08:30 – 17:00 (Subject to scenic area announcements)


📍 Overview

The Li River is the symbol of Chinese landscape scenery, and a bamboo raft ride is the most authentic way to immerse yourself in this natural painting.

We recommend the Xingping Chaoban Mountain Pier ↔ Nine Horse Fresco Hill round trip, the most scenic one-hour route, covering all the classic highlights:

  • 💴 RMB 20 Banknote Background

  • 🌊 Huangbu Reflection

  • 🏞 Nine Horse Fresco Hill

👉 What makes this package different? It includes round-trip transfers between your Yangshuo downtown hotel and Chaoban Mountain Pier — saving you time and hassle, with seamless “one-ticket” service.


🚩 Recommended Route

  • Chaoban Mountain Pier → Nine Horse Fresco Hill → Return to Chaoban Mountain Pier

    · Duration: approx. 1 hour

    · Best choice for first-time visitors and photo lovers

Holiday crowd
