Liuzhou Qishi City

Liuzhou Qishi City is a distinctive attraction centered around the trade and artistry of polished stones sourced from the Liujiang River. The market features a wide array of stones, varying in size and shape, meticulously polished by hand to reveal their natural beauty. These stones, often mimicking animals or other forms, are highly sought after throughout China and internationally. The process of transforming raw river stones into polished art pieces is a labor-intensive one, often taking months or even years for larger, more complex pieces. Visitors can observe artisans at work and purchase these unique souvenirs directly from the source. The area also encourages exploration along the Liujiang River, where one might discover unpolished stones.
