No guarantee of accuracy

Content is written and reviewed in good faith, but travel details change without notice. Opening hours, ticket prices, cruise schedules, river conditions, transport timetables, entry requirements, and safety arrangements can differ from what is described here. Verify anything that matters for your trip with the operator or an official source before you commit money or time.

River and outdoor risks

The Li River can rise quickly after rain, and cruises and rafts can be suspended without much notice. Swimming is not advisable, life jackets should be worn on the water, and the stone steps at Longji become slippery in wet weather. These pages describe commonly used precautions; they are not a substitute for professional guiding, local advice, or your own judgment. Children, older travellers, and people with medical conditions should take extra care.
