Yangshuo, a small town by the Li River, is well-known for its super natural landscape.
With comfortable climate, ever green vegetation, abundant rivers and jade-like hills, it is reputed as the fairyland under heaven. Thus goes the famous saying: Guilin’s Landscape tops those elsewhere, while Yangshuo’s landscape tops that of Guilin. The best known scenic spots include the Green Lotus Peak, YangShuo Park, Scholar’s Page-Boy Hill, Old Banyan Tree and Moon Hill. Each scene differs from another with its characteristic. Even the same scene varies with the change of seasons and in different temperatures within the same day.
Yangshuo is famous not only for its green hills and clear water, but also for its cultural
atmosphere, which is symbolized by the West Street-a street of western flavor. The 600-meter long street is lined with small shops and restaurants, selling souvenirs, serving local dishes to the visitors. Many foreigners are inhabited in this street, hence its another name Foreigner Street. Here the waiters in bar, restaurant, internet cafe and workmanship shop, ordinary residents and even the granny selling the fruits can speak English fluently.
