Beihai and Guilin are both popular tourist cities in Guangxi, but they have two distinct personalities, one is based on the scenery of lakes and mountains, and the other is based on the unity of water and nature. So, which of these two online cities is more livable? In recent years, domestic livable cities have been launched. Livable cities are characterized by beautiful environment, social security, civilization and progress, comfortable life, economic harmony and high reputation.
Is Beihai livable?
This is a romantic city with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. Sunshine, beach and sea water are the most impressive of the North Sea. If warm sunshine and clean sea water are not rare in other places, Beihai silver beach, which has the reputation of "the first beach in the world", is undoubtedly the loudest "tourism trump card" in Beihai city. The silver beach with soft sand like a blanket is paved into a corridor leading to the sea. Beihai is an open coastal city and a famous national historical and cultural city. It has been selected as one of the top ten livable cities in China. In recent years, Beihai has also become popular, becoming the second strong tourism city in Guangxi Province after Guilin.
1. Climate environment
Beihai has a marine monsoon climate with typical subtropical characteristics. The winter half year (October to march of the next year) is mainly controlled by the northerly monsoon, and the summer half year (April to September) is mainly affected by the tropical high, strong wind and southerly wind. Autumn and spring are connected, long summer without winter, summer without heat, and the climate is pleasant.
2. Traffic conditions
Although the traffic conditions are relatively developed in Guilin and Nanning, there are still some basic facilities, including airport, high-speed railway station, bus station and wharf. However, tourists from home may need to change to take bus or train in Guilin, Nanning and other big cities.
3. Economic situation
The economy of Beihai is not prominent in Guangxi Province as a whole. In 1984, Beihai was selected as one of the 14 coastal open cities by the state. As the only coastal open city in the whole western region, Beihai was once regarded as a channel and window for western provinces to go to sea, and was compared to the second Shenzhen. But in early 1990s, Beihai erupted in the real estate bubble, and Beihai's development lagged behind other open city.
Is Guilin suitable for living?
If you want to name a prefecture level city more famous than the provincial capital, Guilin is definitely on the list. For thousands of years, the landscape of Guilin has been the best in the world, which has made many literati splash ink. Han Yu's "water as Qingluo belt and mountains as green jade hairpins" perfectly describes the scenery of Guilin. It is all due to the unique karst landform that gives birth to this strange mountain and beautiful water. Now Guilin and the surrounding 12 counties constitute a scenic spot. Take photos of Longji terrace in the morning, go boating on the Lijiang River in the afternoon, ride the moon mountain, and go to the West Street bar at night, which makes people bathe in the beautiful scenery all day and forget to return.
1. Climate environment
Guilin has a typical southern climate, moderate and rainy, with the same period of rain and heat, suitable temperature but high humidity. This led to many northern people make complaints about Guilin, which is very hot in summer and cold in winter. Guilin's rainy season is concentrated in 4~5 months. The water level of the Lijiang River will rise, and the water will be swift and muddy, which will not be good for looking at the reflection and not conducive to outdoor activities. But the temperature is not high at this time. It is cooler when it rains. You can see the scenery of 'misty rain Lijiang River'.
2. Traffic conditions
Before 2013, I wanted to go to Guilin or take a plane, but the price was expensive. Or take an ordinary train and a car. It takes a long time and a whole night. In 2013, the high-speed railway was officially opened. It takes only 2 hours to travel to Guilin in the Pearl River Delta.
3. Economic situation
There is no doubt that Guilin is rich in tourism resources, even in China. Tourism has naturally become a pillar industry, and its economic level ranks third in Guangxi Province. Guilin is a rice producing area in the south, with a lot of terraced fields in mountainous areas, so Guilin is also a large agricultural city.
Although the economy is not as good as Nanning and Liuzhou, the price is not high. It costs 5 yuan for a bowl of powder. The hotel is about 150 yuan a night in non peak seasons, and Guilin has perfect educational and medical facilities.
In fact, which is more livable between the two cities depends on how you choose. If you like the romance of coastal cities, choose Beihai and Guilin!
