GUILIN

It has a population of 600,000 and two rivers – the Li and the Peach Blossom.

The Hotel Osmanthus is named after the beautiful Osmanthus trees that line the roads, but everywhere you look all you can see are these incredible limestone peaks which date back to the ice age. We take a trip today down the Li river to Yangshou which is a relaxing and mindblowing journey due to the spectacular scenery.

YANGSHOU

This has a small population of 40,00 but is a backpackers retreat which explains why it is so tranquil. The scenery is impressive, astonishing and breathtaking. This ranks in the top 3 places I have ever visited. INCREDIBLE.
