Tickets and booking
Admission is 30 yuan per person, with children tiered by height: under 1.1 m enter free, 1.1-1.4 m pay half price, and anyone over 1.4 m pays the full 30 yuan. The data pack lists no online booking channel, so buying at the entrance on the day is the practical default. To confirm ticketing or hours before setting out, the park’s listed phone numbers are 0773-8823496 and 0773-8823486. Posted hours are 08:00-16:30, Monday through Sunday, all year, with the caveat that the scenic area sets the final schedule.
Entrance and routes
The park sits at the eastern foot of Bilian Peak, inside Yangshuo county town in Guilin, Guangxi. The pack describes two ways in. By public transport: take the Guilin-Yangshuo shuttle bus, then walk to the park from the drop-off. By car: enter the G321 national road, take exit 3 at the roundabout onto Jingfeng Road, turn right onto Longyue Road, continue onto Pantao Road, and use the parking lot in front of the bus station. The pack does not name individual gates, so follow signs for the park once you reach the east side of Bilian Peak.
Photo spots
The pack names no individual viewpoints, so treat the setting itself as the shot: the grounds sit directly against the eastern foot of Bilian Peak, which rises to the park’s west. That geometry favours an early visit — morning light falls on the peak’s east-facing side, the face you see from inside the park. With hours running 08:00-16:30, a morning slot also gives the widest window before the 16:30 close. Beyond the peak-and-park pairing, the pack lists no other named photo features to plan around.
Timing and crowds
The pack carries no crowd data, so plan around the clock rather than around predicted busy spells. Hours are 08:00-16:30 every day of the year, and the scenic area reserves the right to adjust them — call 0773-8823496 or 0773-8823486 if your day depends on it. The suggested visit runs 1-3 hours, so arriving at or near the 08:00 opening is the reliable way to leave slack; an arrival much after early afternoon compresses the visit, and the site closes at 16:30.
Walking and effort
The pack lists no trail lengths, elevation figures, or difficulty ratings, and nothing frames this as a hiking destination: it is an in-town heritage park at the foot of Bilian Peak, reached on foot from the Guilin-Yangshuo bus drop-off. The 1-3 hour suggested duration points to a compact, walkable site rather than an ascent. Ordinary walking shoes and water are the sensible kit; the pack does not describe the internal terrain, so there is nothing beyond standard park walking to prepare for.
Getting there
Public transport is the simple option: catch the Guilin-Yangshuo shuttle bus, then walk — the address places the park inside Yangshuo county town at the eastern foot of Bilian Peak, so the final leg is on foot from the town’s bus drop-off. Drivers should follow the pack’s route: G321 national road, exit 3 at the roundabout onto Jingfeng Road, right turn onto Longyue Road, then Pantao Road, parking at the lot in front of the bus station. The pack lists no local bus numbers, taxi fares, or walking times, so build margin into the final on-foot leg.
Cost breakdown
The only confirmed cost is admission: 30 yuan per adult. Children under 1.1 m tall are free, children between 1.1 m and 1.4 m pay half (15 yuan), and children over 1.4 m pay the full 30 yuan — so two adults with a mid-height child pay 75 yuan at the gate. The pack lists no parking fee, shuttle fare, or guide charges, and the Guilin-Yangshuo bus fare is not specified. Budget the 30 yuan headcount as the fixed cost and treat everything beyond it as unbudgeted.
