Ancient Charm of Equan: A Stunning Hidden Gem

Jingxi, Guangxi’s low-key mountain and water secret spot is a must-visit! Equan is breathtakingly beautiful, with few people and amazing scenery perfect for photos 🌈 📍Destination: Equan Scenic Area Address: Nian’an Village, Equan, Xinjing Town, Jingxi City, Baise, Guangxi ⏰Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM (last entry at 6:00 PM) 🎫Ticket: 45 RMB/person The moment you step into Equan, you’ll be amazed! The emerald green spring water looks like scattered jade, with layers of indigo mountains in the distance. The most photogenic spot is the ancient bridge spanning the water 🌉—every snap looks like a masterpiece. It’s best to enter around 8 AM when there are fewer people, the light is perfect, and you might catch the misty fairyland atmosphere in the morning~ This visit revealed that the scenic area is well planned, with a trail circling the lake where you can witness the spectacular spring water gushing. The area also features Zhuang ethnic-style buildings with yellow walls and black tiles, blending beautifully with the landscape. The biggest surprise was spotting egrets standing in the shallows hunting—such a soothing scene! 📸Photo Tips: 1. The ancient bridge is the best spot; try shooting panoramic views from both sides of the bridge. 2. There are many stones by the spring water; low-angle shots can capture reflections of the mountains and water. 3. The light after 4 PM is the softest, and the water surface glows with golden light. 🍜Food Recommendations: Try the local farmhouse restaurant at the scenic area entrance for Jingxi specialties like sour soup fish and five-color glutinous rice, around 50 RMB per person. The sour soup paired with freshly caught river fish is very appetizing! 👉Tips: - Plan to spend 2-3 hours here - Wear comfortable, non-slip shoes as some stone steps can be slippery - Bring mosquito repellent; there are many mosquitoes near the water
