Located in the northeastern part of Guangxi, Guilin(桂林) has long laid claim to having the most beautiful scenery in China. With its mild subtropical climate, it is a pleasant place tio visit at any time of the year. In autumn , when the sweet osmanthus is in bloom, the fragrance of the blossoms pervades the air. The shrub grows everywhere in and around the city; the name Guilin, in fact, means " forest of sweet osmanthus".

Elephant Trunk Hill

This peak is locate at the confluence of the Yangjiang River and the Lijiang.The entire hill looks like a drinking elephant with its long trunk in the river. Here the quality of the water is so good that famed Guiling wines are made from it. The cave looks like a full moon floating on the surface of the water with the moonlight reflected on the waves.

The so-called " elephant hill and water moon" are a famous sight in Guilin. 

Lijiang Scenery and Yangshuo

An eighty-three kilometer boat ride down the Lijiang river from Guilin south to Yangshuo is like a trip through a natural art gallery.
