Y A N G S H U O
The original saying goes "桂林山水甲天下". Subsequently, it's 阳朔甲桂林".
In other words, Yangshuo is the best!

I've to agree a 100% to this. Yangshuo is a place to be explored & discovered on your own, either on foot or
with the help of a hired motorbike. There are places in Yangshuo where no tourists would venture. Places
where only those with 2 wheels can get to. It is in these places one finds the gems of the whole area, ie
Yulong River & Banyan Tree Park. The whole area is simply magical. Lots of unknown mountains & rivers but
enticing nonetheless. It's one of the most picturesque places on the whole planet. Everywhere & every
moment is a postcard material. Such is the beauty of Yangshuo... beyond description, beyond imagination. Until
you've been here, you've yet seen the best of China! So, are u tempted yet?
.
 MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL...
WHO'S THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL? YANGSHUO!!!

The water here is as clear as a mirror.
The scenery as beautiful as a painting.
The experience? As unique as going to the moon.

It is a place of amazing beauty & serenity. A place
so rare in the world (much more so in China) that
you mustn't miss it when you are in this part of
the world. Yes, most tourists (esp. those on a
group tour) cruise down the Li River & caught a
glimpse of this wonderment. But, that was merely
a tiny glimpse of a huge puzzle. It's an
incomplete picture. Yangshuo forms a larger
perspective of it but even then there are much to
explore & discover.

Be brave... take another step forward & you'll find
an entire world in your palm. A world you'll never
know existed until you take that first step...
