Yangshuo
Yangshuo is located 65km (40 miles) southeast of
Guilin by road, and is the popular destination of river cruises
from the city. Yangshuo has the same striking scenery as Guilin,
but is a much smaller and quieter town and is closer to the craggy
limestone hills. Many tourists just visit Yangshuo for a few hours
at the end of a boat cruise but a longer stay allows visitors to
relax and enjoy its mellow atmosphere.
Yangshuo is a great place for exploring the countryside
by bike, gain first hand experience of rural China and a different
perspective of the region. The climb up Moon Hill is a wonderful
way to view the landscape and other places to look out for as you
peddle alongside paddy fields include Green Lotus Peak, and Buddha
Cave.
