Yangshuo County
is a county in Guilin, Guangxi Province, China. Its seat is located in
Yangshuo Town. Surrounded by karst peaks and bordered on one side by the
Li River it is easily accessible by bus or by boat from nearby Guilin.
In the 1980s, the town became popular with foreign backpackers, and by
the late 1990s packaged tourists began arriving in greater numbers. At
that time, domestic tourism represented only a small fraction of the
tourists but by 2005 domestic tourists outnumbered foreign tourists by a
great margin. Today, the town has become a resort destination for both
domestic and foreign travelers. 19 more images after the break...

Yangshuo
is a very scenic, small county and city surrounded by many karst
mountains and beautiful scenery near Guilin, Guangxi. It is very popular
among tourists. Yangshuo is popular for its incredible karst scenery,
beautiful mountains, rivers, caves, and temples as well as its laid back
cafes and bars. However, as a result, there is no shortage of mainland
Chinese tourists, ex-pats and other foreigners.
Yangshuo is not a typical Chinese town and does not have the big-city
feel as in most other Chinese cities. That means it is relatively air
and noise pollution free, (provided you get away from major roadways),
very clean (by Chinese standards) and does not usually suffer from
endless massive traffic chaos. It is much more like a vacation town,
with wonderful restaurants and shops and again quite developed by
mainland Chinese standards. Yangshuo has a reputation as a foreigners'
village in Southern China and is a major stop on the trail of many
independent travellers. It is also a nice place to stop and explore the
local countryside by bike or even try your hand on the world class
rock-climbing sites.
