Yulong River is 43.5 km long, 38 to 61 m wide and 0.5 to 2 m deep. Several dykes and dams have been built in the river, which explains why the river is still not open to navigation. The clear and slowly-flowing river is also a place where some of the County's historic and cultural sites are located.
Yulong River also boasts many famous bridges, such as Xiangui Bridge (the oldest bridge in Guangxi), Yulong Bridge (largest single-hole stone bridge in Guangxi) and Fuli Bridge (with the roundest single hole in Yangshuo). With the popularity of hiking in recent years, Yulong River, once hidden from outside world, has gradually unveiled its untouched beauty and cultural heritage to tourists both at home and abroad.
