The famous saying "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world" has not been found for a long time. In the textual research of past dynasties, some people think that Fan Chengda in Song Dynasty said that "the beauty of Guilin should be the best in the world". Some people think that "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world" in the article "Rebuilding Xiangnan Building" by Zengbo Li, the economic and strategic history of Guizhou in the late Southern Song Dynasty; In the 11th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty, Jin Wuxiang, governor of Guangxi, wrote in the poem "Lijiang Grass" that Guilin's landscape fell first. At this point, people agree that the phrase "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world" comes from Jin Wuxiang. 1983, Yang Yinsheng, a master of rubbings in Guilin, discovered a stone tablet under the stalactites when he was rubbing on the Duxiu Peak in the famous mountain of Guilin. One of the poems is "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, and jade Qing is jade Qing." According to the preface of this poem tablet, this poem was written by Song Jiatai in the Southern Song Dynasty just after the "Dabie Mountain in Guilin" (imperial examination). He mentioned the right to imprisonment and made a banquet for eleven people who took the exam. This discovery predates the original statement by 685 years.

Modern patriot Wu Mai once quoted this poem:

Guilin has the best scenery in the world.

Yangshuo is Guilin.

The peaks float in the mountains,

No mountains, no water, no ecstasy.

The scenery in Guilin is the best in the world: A stands for first place, or it is first place.

Guilin's landscape is world-class, which can be said to be the best in the world.

Yangshuo can be called a Guilin: it means that Yangshuo is the best place in Guilin.

The peaks reflect the floating mountains: the water in Lijiang River is so clear that even the mountains reflected in the water seem to be real.

No mountains, no water, no ecstasy: the beautiful scenery makes this place so attractive.
