Location & Accessibility

Yu Gui Yuan Global Wonders sits in Yan Mountain District, just off Guilin’s Ring Highway, about 20 minutes from downtown Guilin. If you’re flying into Guilin Liangjiang International Airport, it’s a 40-minute drive—easy to reach by taxi or ride-sharing apps. The park is surrounded by karst mountains and rice fields, so expect stunning Limestome scenery along the way!

Natural Scenery: Karst Meets Modern Wonders

Guilin is famous for its rocky peaks and rivers, and Yu Gui Yuan blends right into this landscape. The park includes man-made lakes mirroring the karst formations, flower-filled promenades, and even a hilltop observation deck. At night, lights illuminate the gardens, creating a magical contrast between nature and technology. It’s like walking through a modern fairyland carved into Guilin’s iconic hills!

Cultural & Themed Attractions

While still under development, Yu Gui Yuan promises globally inspired zones. Think replicas of world-famous landmarks (like miniature versions of the Eiffel Tower or Taj Mahal) mixed with Guangxi’s local culture. There’s also talk of film studios and cultural theaters where visitors can watch performances or even participate in movie-making experiences. Perfect for photo lovers and families!

Luxurious Amenities for All Travelers

This isn’t just a park—it’s a mini-city! Once fully open, expect:

  • 5-star hotels with valley views
  • Convention centers for business events
  • Shopping malls with local crafts and international brands
  • Theaters, spas, and restaurants serving everything from Michelin-star food to street-style Guilin米粉 (rice noodles).
    Whether you’re a couple on a romantic trip or a family with kids, there’s something for everyone.

Immersive Experiences: More Than Just Sightseeing

Unlike typical tourist spots, Yu Gui Yuan focuses on interactive fun. You can:

  • Walk through themed pavilions (like a futuristic garden or ancient Silk Road village).
  • Ride a gondola for bird’s-eye views of the karst landscape.
  • Join workshops to make souvenirs inspired by Guangxi’s Zhuang or Yao ethnic cultures.
  • Enjoy water parks in summer and hot springs in winter.
    Evenings might feature light shows or firework displays over the lake.
