[Travelogue Guilin, China] Lost at Xingping Ancient Town

Where to stay in Yangshuo? Yangshuo River View Hotel. Address: No. 25 Binjiang Road, Yangshuo County, China I chose this place mainly because of the location . The location kind of away from the busy street. Just less 5 minutes walking distance from the Yangshuo Pier , its so convenient if you choose the route I took which is 4 hours Li River Cruise. Less 5 minutes to famous walking street, The West Street, Yangshuo . Li River just right opposite the hotel . Since I only have one night so the distance to all of this is very important. I don't want to waste my time and budget for transportation all the time. I missed out the river view room. So, I got the mountain view instead of that. Anyway, I kind of love my room. So cosy and they even have a small verandah for me to enjoy 'Pu Er' tea and the complimentary fruit plate they gave me. One complaint, no lift . My room on the 4th floor. I was like....more staircase? The hotel in Guilin City has

On the 26th Dec 2019, I woke up as early as 6am, getting ready to check out from Riverside Inn Central Guilin. I booked a River Cruise to Yangshuo from the place I stayed in Guilin City which cost me 480 Yuan. The bus will be coming to pick me up 7:30am to Mopanshan Pier to board the 4 hours cruise. It was heavy rain that day. Like I said in my previous entry, the place I stayed at the small alley, so I have to walk out braving that heavy rain with one of the Hotel staff holding the umbrella for me. The weather was seriously colder than yesterday with this rain. Even my heat-tech inner piece which I bought from Uniqlo, seems not enough to warm me up! Since my plan is to stay a night in Yangshuo and then from there I will head over to Longsheng, I chose to travel light. I am unable to carry a big backpack due to my bad waist pain. So, I packed lighter possible to fit in my small backpack which I brought with me. I wish could carry the bigger backpack but that will not be a goo

Have you watched my video on Travelogue Guilin, China Ep 1, yet? Check out the link HERE .  Elephant Trunk Hill Scenic Area Address: On Western Bank of the Li River, Guilin If you take bus just make sure to get off at the stop of Xiang Shan Gong Yuan 25th Dec 2019, 2nd day in Guilin. Its Christmas day. I woke up with rain outside. No snow which I don't expect at all. So, I end up walking to Elephant Trunk Hill (Xiangbishan) which located around 1km from the place I stayed. It was a great morning walk under light rain which eventually stop by the time I reached the scenic area. Since Nov and Dec month considers the low season, I have gotten the price for a half-price which also entitled me to visit 3 other scenic areas via their free red tour bus. I love the beautiful view here. The best is not that many tourists since it was during the low season. I just walked away from the crowd and have peaceful morning walk. Elephant Trunk Hill is k
