China - Guilin [part V]

Back in Singapore today! Took the 10 am flight from Macau. Felt good to be back though it rained the whole afternoon.

It's time to continue my Guilin/Yangsou story, I spent two and a half days in Yangsou which meant I had three chances to see sunrise. Sad to say that there was no sunrise during the three days of my stay eventhough I woke up 5.30am daily.


The view above is right outside the hotel corridor. Dont you think it looks like a chinese drawing?

Well, this is the spot I waited for three mornings to capture the sunrise.

In the afternoon, we traveled to the nearby village to shoot sceneries of locals and mountains. Rain was with me the whole afternoon. Wet wet wet!


Well, overall I love this place, people and the food. It's really an enjoyable trip, I will definately go back again.
Next, I will be sharing my short trip to Guangdong-Shenzhen/Guangzhou/Zhuhai.

China - Guilin [part IV]

Back to Hong Kong yesterday from Zhuhai, quite a boring trip (sad to say that) b'cos the weather was so bad that I couldnt take many photos, sad.

Let's continue with my journey in Guilin. I took a local package where I travelled by bus to Xiping town and then by boat up and down the beautiful Lijiang river.

Along the river, I was standing on the deck of the boat throughout the journey with camera on hand. It was freezing COLD especially when the boat was speeding. Here, I could see different sizes and shapes of hill along the side of Lijiang river even though the sky looked misty. It created a very interesting scene.




After the river trip, we went to the little village near Moon mountain for our lunch. This mountain is named 'MOON' b'cos while traveling along/around it you will be able to see different shape of moon from different angle, interesting right?

Are you able to find the 'Moon'?
Well, next I will show some of the photos taken in Yangsou, the beautiful/famous town in Guilin. Stay tuned...
+ This morning finally able to see sunrise, could'nt stop shooting :P

China - Guilin [part II]

Second day in Guilin, rain was following me everyway, luckily I hired a nice local taxi driver for a round city day tour.

Since it was wet everyway, the best place to go is the cave, 芦笛岩 was the choice and I love the cave in 1st sight.

Here the view before i went in the beautiful cave:

China - Guilin [part I]

Guilin is a beautiful place in China, my 1st site seeing place was at the famous Longji Terrace. Though I missed their harvesting season but the view here still look extremely breath taking.



The above is a local miao girl who posed for me :P

Here I tried their local famous bamboo rice and bamboo chicken. I really missed the food, the scenery and the people.
