The best area to stay in Xingping Ancient Town is within the ancient town itself, particularly along the pedestrianised main street and its immediate side alleys.


This central area is the heart of Xingping, offering a delightful mix of traditional architecture, local eateries, and craft shops. You'll find yourself just a stone's throw from the Li River, with the iconic 20 Yuan note scenery easily accessible. The main street, often bustling during the day, becomes a pleasant place for an evening stroll, with red lanterns lighting the way.


Couples looking for a romantic escape will particularly enjoy staying right in the ancient town. The charming guesthouses, often with balconies overlooking the narrow streets or courtyards, provide a cosy and memorable experience. You're perfectly placed for leisurely walks along the riverbank at sunset or early morning, enjoying the mist over the karst peaks.


For solo travellers, staying in the ancient town offers convenience and a sense of connection. Everything you need is within walking distance, from local restaurants serving authentic Guangxi cuisine to tour operators arranging boat trips and bamboo raft excursions.

The best time to visit Xingping Ancient Town is during the autumn months, particularly from September to November, or in the spring, from March to May.


Autumn offers pleasant weather with comfortable temperatures and less rainfall, making it ideal for outdoor activities like bamboo rafting on the Li River or hiking. The skies are generally clearer, providing excellent conditions for photography, especially of the karst landscapes around the town.


Spring also boasts mild temperatures and lush greenery as nature awakens. While there might be occasional rain, it often adds a mystical quality to the landscape, with mist clinging to the peaks. This season is superb for those who enjoy a more serene experience before the peak summer crowds.
