Seven Star Park

Maintains a collection of 213 stone steles dating from the Tang Dynasty to the early 20th century.

Hill with a large natural arch cut into it. This resembles the trunk of an elephant dipping into the river. This scene is frequently used as a symbol of the city and so has developed some fame. There is a fun and cheaper alternative to get into the park, you can go all the way to the river on the street just at the right side of the west gate, you will find some people asking if you want a boat that they drop you in the park for half-price of the official ticket. It is pretty much impossible to get a good view of the natural arch without going on a boat tour as trees have been planted to prevent people from freeloading the view.

51,400-m² large gathering place in the centre of town. Here you can watch a giant atlas on the ground and an artificial waterfall every evening at 20:30.

Although there is nothing much to see inside the pagodas, the view from the outside as well as the surrounding lake offers a good respite from the traffic and noise of Guilin's city center. The view is better at night than day.

Contains historical stone carvings from the Tang Dynasty and Buddhist inscriptions. The hill is an impressive sheer-sided rock.

Built in the 1940s to accommodate Li Zongren, a Guilin-born Kuomintang military leader who served as vice president of the Republic of China from 1948 to 1949 and acting president from 1949 to 1950. It is sometimes referred to informally as the 'Guilin Presidential Palace' (桂林总统府). The building is open to the public and has exhibitions about Li Zongren's life.
