Sep 8, 2005 - Yangshuo

Pulled into Guilin station about 6am and left the dutch behind and got straight on the bus to Yangshuo this tourist town in south central China. ... The town is wicked set in amongst loads of Karst mountains like in Ha Long Bay, and a good intro to China for me as alot of English is spoken and there are loads of english signs and menus knocking about the place.Pulled into Guilin station about 6am and left the dutch behind and got straight on the bus to Yangshuo this tourist town in south central China. ...

May 26, 2005 - Piyuan e arrozais e partida para Yangshuo

A cerca de 3 horas a Norte de Guilin situam-se os terracos de arrozais, que na Primavera sao verdes e no Outono dourados. Trocamos de carrinha, que nos levou a Yangshuo. ...

May 7, 2005 - China - Yangshuo

(Con version en castellano mas abajo!) Ni hau!!!! We are survivors!!!! Believe it or not, we've just arrived in Yangshuo after 44 hours travelling!!!!! We left Zhongdian at 17:30 on the 5th of May on a sleeper bus and arrived in Kunming at 8:30 the following day having slept virtually nothing because we were on the last row of the bus and the bumping was nearly unbearable. ... Yes, you've read right, we spent twenty hours on a hard seat right after a sleepless night on a bus and saved almost 20 euros this way!!! Have we gone completely crazy? Perhaps, but the fact is that when we finally got to Guilin, we didn't like it and decided to take a bus (one hour) to Yangshuo straight away!!!! Anyway, we are in Yangshuo now and it was worth it, but that will be our next installment. ... Kaixo!!!!! Nunca Mais!!!!! Ya estamos en Yangshuo despues de 44 HORAS de viaje. ... A las 12:00 llegamos a Guilin y como los alrededores de la estacion no nos decia nada, nos montamos en un autobus rumbo a Yangshuo. ...

Mar 3, 2005 - Yangshuo: River Trip & Drinking

After the last 2 days of just sitting inside doing not a lot decided that I should probably do something, especially as the weather had cleared up, not sunny but not rainy either. When we got back to Yangshuo me and Gower rather foolishly started on the beers. ... Had some fried noodles and shed loads of free peanuts which were nice and then headed to the Stone Roses Cafe for a couple more beers.After the last 2 days of just sitting inside doing not a lot decided that I should probably do something, especially as the weather had cleared up, not sunny but not rainy either.

Feb 16, 2005 - Yangshuo das Shoppingparadies

Uff - kalt ist es immer noch draussen - aber wir haben ein warmes Zimmer! Habe wohl noch die die Heizung in einem Haus so sehr geschaetzt wie hier! Yangshow ist nun wirklich tourisisch und ein reinstes Einkaufsparadies - Handtaschen soviel man will (Burburry waren meine Lieblinge - habe aber verzichtet), und das geniale- North Face Jackets. Ansonsten haben wir die Umgebung von Yangshuo mit dem Fahhrad erkundigt - die Fahrraeder waren zwar Mountainbikes - aber definitiv made in China - die lotterten ueberall!!! Aber die Umgebung von Yangshow ist genial - Limestonehuegel ueber Kilometerweit verstreut, Fluesse, Gruene Berge, ein MoonLoch - es war ein toller Tag auf dem velo und nicht mehr so kalt :-) Daisy, unsere Fuehrerin lud und ein zu sich nach Hause und kochte fuer uns. ... Das war ein tolles Erlebnis,einfach mal mit einer normalen chinesischen Familie am Tisch zu sitzen.Uff - kalt ist es immer noch draussen - aber wir haben ein warmes Zimmer!

Sep 23, 2004 - Bonsai Mountains

Early night after Huang Shan I can tell you. And now here I am in Guilin, or more specifically, Yangshuo, an hour away, which is more than a bit of a culture shock, and not just because it has been a tourist attraction since 600 AD. ... I saw more westerners in my first ten minutes off the bus than I have seen in the last three weeks.Early night after Huang Shan I can tell you.
