Discover Nanning: The Hidden Gem of Guangxi, China 🇨🇳 | 4 Days in the Green City

Join me on an unforgettable adventure as we explore Nanning, the lesser-known yet equally captivating city in southwestern China. As the capital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Nanning is often called the "Green City" thanks to its lush subtropical landscapes, vibrant plant life, and exotic wildlife. 🌿🌺

I spent 4 amazing days in this charming city, and I was absolutely mesmerised by its beauty. The streets are lined with almond trees, and the greenery in the city makes it feel like a tranquil oasis. With its unique mix of Chinese and Southeast Asian influences, Nanning's vibrant culture and atmosphere are truly one-of-a-kind. It’s no wonder the city shares a close connection with Hanoi, just 323 km away.

Nanning is not only a tourist destination, but it’s also an important economic hub, home to the ASEAN Central Business District and many cross-regional cooperative initiatives. With a rich cultural tapestry, 35 ethnic groups call Nanning home, making it a fascinating city to explore for visitors seeking diversity and history.

Fun fact: Nanning became a sister city with Bundaberg, Australia, back in 1998—the same year I was born! 😄
