China (Guilin) (2011)

Our first trip to China!

Guilin was amazing. Heard much about Guilin before our trip there in December of 2011 (I could not even pronounce 'Guilin' correctly before this trip😂). Previously, I had seen numerous pictures of the famous karst mountains of Guilin ~ a source of inspiration for many artists throughout China.

Yoke Fong and I took the cruise along the mighty Li River and from that ferry we get lots of spectacular views of the karst mountains and other fascinating landscapes.

The seven-hour cruise took us south to a tiny touristy town called "Yangshuo".

Western tourists were many there and the highlight of that place is an outdoor play ~ claimed to be the biggest in the world!


NOTE: THIS SIX DAYS, FIVE NIGHTS-TOUR COSTS RM2,500 PER PERSON.
