The beautiful surrounding scenery includes many hills; Moon Hill, Xiu Hill, Mural Hill, Snail Hill (Luoshi Hill), Xilang
Hill, Schoolboy Hill and Chaoban Hill. And although the population of Yangzhou
is small (298,000), four ethnic groups of Han, Zhuang, Yao and Miao can all be
found here. กก Chinese Net Friends" Comments and Recommendations:
Yangshuo is a place I would like to visit again and again.
What a pleasure to ramble on the trails while farmers go to their fields and
children headed for school!
With breathtaking, beautifully shaped hills all around, I listened to the local women chatting with each other while washing clothes in the river under a graceful, ancient stone bridge. I even lay down and rested a while on a bamboo deck chair at a local farmer"s home after a four-hour walk, while the hostess was preparing some delicious dishes with vegetables from her backyard garden
for me. Never had I enjoyed so freely a countryside, and seen such an affluence of natural beauty. Favorite Routes:
Cycling Yangshuo:
(I)
Set off from Yangshuo County, ride along Kangzhan Road to Gaotian Town. Enjoy the rural beauty until you see a sign indicating "Moon Village"
on the opposite road. Take a turn in the direction of the sign, so that you can see the famous Moon Mountain when you look back. If you feel a bit tired, have a doze in Deyue Building, and enjoy a few dishes. Then ride to Moon Mountain.
(III)
Ride from Baishajinbao Road, Yangshuo. After ten minutes you will arrive at Yulong Bridge. Meandering in Yangshuo
Yangdi-Xingping 18 kilometers, requiring 7 or 8 hours.
In the morning, first get to Yangdi by boat, costing about one yuan. After walking for about 20 minutes, you will see a strawberry garden. Then take one hour to walk to Langshi, and pass it. Then you will arrive at a small fishing village. After lunch, continue your trip. You will be amazed by Jiumahua Mountain and Xingping. Cross the dock at the foot of Jiumahua Mountain. And at dawn, find a raft to drift on Lijiang. Hotels and restaurants reviews:
Dingding Hotel (Dingding Kezhan), or Lijiang Resort, if you would like to live in a luxurious star-grade hotel. They are all on West Street (Xi Jie). As for the dining, we recommend you go to Tongle Restaurant. In New West Street (Xin Xi
Jie), the candied taros (Basi Yutou) and Stewed fish with beer (Pijiu Yu) are
great. Choose a fish weighing two kilos.
