Another eventful weekend! While playing Chinese monopoly last week, a few friends and I decided to go on a last-minute trip to Guilin/Yangshuo over the Qingming holiday. It was COLD, but luckily, it didn't rain too much. Yichen, Tiffany, great trip idea!
Here was our visit to the Reed Flute Cave in Guilin. Really awesome underground karst formations.
The back of the RMB20 bill is this shot of the Li River (maybe at a slightly different angle...). I snapped this picture on our 2hr bamboo raft ride from Guilin to Yangshuo along the Li River.
A picture of Yangshuo's Impressions of Liu San Jie show, directed by Zhang Yi Mou (who also directed the Beijing Olympics, Hero, House of Flying Daggers, and
Impressions of Lijiang, which was awesome).
Here's the view from the top of one of the hostels we stayed at 11 Youth Hostel in Yangshuo near West Street. I wouldn't mind waking up to this every morning!
