Make this route your own

Use these days as a starting point and adjust the pace to suit you. Check the linked attraction guides for reservations and closures, and allow a full day for longer outings. Confirm weather and tickets before setting off.

Choose one route for each day with alternatives below. Only its listed stops are imported. Optional stops stay in the guide, and opening days still need checking for your dates.

DAY1

Central Nanning

Regional collection and old city

Planner route: Regional collection and old city.

Planner stops: Guangxi Museum + Three Streets and Two Lanes + Yong River Promenade.

Places mentioned in this day's guide:

  1. Visit Guangxi Museum with confirmed admission, then a short Three Streets/Two Lanes walk and permitted Yong River section if weather allows.
  2. Before departure: confirm the exact open entrance, admission product, original-passport process and both outward and return transport; none is inferred from the directory rating.
  3. Use the stated alternatives selectively. Preserve time for meals, security checks and transfers; named alternatives are not a requirement to visit every listed attraction.
If the plan changes

If the main site is full, closed or affected by weather, choose one of this day’s geographically compatible alternatives only after its own opening and admission are confirmed. Otherwise swap with the city’s collection or public-neighborhood day; public outdoor routes are not severe-weather shelter.

These are alternatives. The planner adds only the stops in your chosen option.

Places mentioned in this day's guide:

  1. Choose Qingxiu Mountain as the main day or the Nationalities Museum and Confucian Temple as a separate cultural route. Do not rush all three large areas.

  2. Before departure: confirm the exact open entrance, admission product, original-passport process and both outward and return transport; none is inferred from the directory rating.
