In China, there's a saying that "The landscape of Guilin tops that of any
other place under heaven." In light of this, I will recommend Guilin as the
first destination of my foreign friend's trip to China.
Overlooking the Li Jiang River, Guilin is located in the northeast of
Guangxi. The name was derived from the cassia trees of the location. The trees
line the streets of the town with yellow flowers blossoming every September,
filling the air with sweet scent.
Guilin is a place of breath-taking scenery. From ancient times, Guilin has
been noted for its elegant landscape. It features beautiful mountains, clear
rivers, grotesque rocks and mystic crags, which is a feast for the eyes. Sitting
on a bamboo raft drifting down the river, visitors can see the varied shapes of
the pinnacles reflected in the water. They will feel as if they were in a scroll
of Chinese landscape painting.
I believe that my foreign friend will marvel at the unparalleled beauty of
Guilin.
