Guilin Ugh by jchrisrock
Yanghshuo, overrun and touristy as it is, left a much better impression on us than this desperate-seeming gateway to the Li River.

I visited Guilin for about 3 days during my 2 week stay in China. We drove around by car and took boat tours which were a nice refreshing change to Guangzhou. I was in awe with the surroundings. My mom told me that this place was a favored environment for filming. Ah we also went to the Feng Yuan cave. Picture is from the boat tour. We also had a 18.5 cent (American money) breakfast, and the food was STILL good! over 4 years agoUntitled by GemStonedIf you see ground hog (or something similar) on the menu have a taste, you may find that you like dog. Also i went on a trip down the river on a rather old boat, they served us some rather exotic food, if you are slightyly squimish or don’t like snake from a jar, take some sarnies :) definately worth going tho, its beautiful but only for a couple of days, how long can you look at a river for??? over 5 years agoSee all 19 entries |
