What travellers say about Laibin

爆炸头Smile18 October 2026

5.0

Our last stop in Liuzhou was the Panwangjie Scenic Area of Dayao Mountain, known as "Little Zhangjiajie." A chartered car from Liuzhou took about 1.5 hours to get there, and the entire walk was approximately 8 kilometers. The scenic area has two levels. We took a cable car up the mountain, explored the upper level first, then took an elevator down to the lower level to see all the sights. After that, we took the elevator back up to the upper level, and finally took the cable car down. Our driver, Mr. Ling, drove smoothly and planned the time well. Our three-day chartered car trip ended happily.
