Guilin is touted as China's most dreamlike Karst scenery and it didn't dissapoint. Dr. Seuss- like mountains surround the Li River as it winds from Guilin to Yangshuo. After a couple days in Xian we were looking for a retreat from the city and opted to hop on the four hour Li River Cruise first thing in the morning. It was the right call as we witnessed all kinds of vistas we wouldn't have encountered on land. Interestingly, water buffalo/oxtail could be seen swimming in the river to cool their thick hide throughout the journey. Perhaps the coolest site though is [View Full Entry]

Hen Xihuan Zhongguo (Love love love China!)
Asia » China » Guangxi » Guilin
Without question we left Vietnam with a positive feeling, but we were definately ready to continue on with our adventure. It was for this reason we dedicated a couple of days of missioning to get well into China: our schedule: 5am - leave Ha Giang 11am - arrive in Hanoi (At first we were upset to hear that we had to spend the night here due to buses etc. but to our surprise treated us well this visit and we actaully changed our opinion and found Hanoi quite a charming city to spend a couple of hours!!) following day - [View Full Entry]

The 'Picturesque' China I had so hoped for; and someother things I did not
Asia » China » Guangxi » Guilin
Well, we have finnally made it to, as the title says, the 'Picturesque' China I had hoped for. With weird green moutain formations, little villages, and lots and lots and lots of tourist information centers (almost none speak english and they are all selling the same thing: 'Boat cruise down the Li River...'; its too bad that when we really need them they turn out to be this way). But it ok, I think we got ourselves a resonably priced boat and if the man shows up with a boat then its all good. We got to Guilin this morning [View Full Entry]

A subject I haven't quite touched yet is the sweet comsuming of alcohol. And this is certinately due to the fact that not much has happened so far, that differs from what we are used to back in Denmark. But last night we met a dutch and british guy, had some beers and watched a crappy movie (the groomsmen, please don't watch it). After the dvd stopped working (they usally do in every movie) we decided to go to a bar of a sort. We got a recommendation from the receptionist, and found the bar about half an hour later.

I left Hong Kong on May 27th; I took the train from Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, for about forty five minutes to La Wu, the end of the line in Hong Kong. I walked through the border crossing to the Chinese mainland into the city of Shenzhen. Shenzhen is part of the newly formed "Special Economic Zone"straddling the Hong Kong Border, the city has been recently transformed from a simple fishing village to one of the richest cities in China, thus enticing a diverse mix people, from businessmen to illegal immigrants, creating an extreme imbalance of wealth and poverty, which [View Full Entry]

As described to you in our first blog from Yangshuo, this place was quite the adventure! We woke up on day 2, sore as hell from the biking and massages from the previuos day, but ready for some more thrill-seeking and fun in Yangshuo. We decided to sleep in a little bit and try to get some of that relaxing in that we assumed we'd be doing in Yangshuo the entire time we were there (yeah, right). So, had a late(r) morning than normal, and walked into town for some breakfast. We stopped at a place run by some American [View Full Entry]

Yöllä kummankin hytissä vieraili konduktööri herättelemässä muita matkustajia, jotta eivät jäisi asemiensa ohi. Tomilla kävi niin hyvä tuuri, että kaikki kolme muuta matkustajaa jäivät samaan aikaan yöllä pois, niin että oli koko loppuyön hytti omassa käytössä. Aamulla saavuttiin Guiliniin ja käväistiin samalla aseman turisti-infossa. Paikan nimi antoi olettaa, että se olisi joku Guilinin ”virallinen” toimisto. Kyseltiin sieltä majoitusta alle 20 euron hintaan ja he tarjosivat kolmen tähden hotellia 32 eurolla. Kun sanottiin, että ei kiitos ja oltiin lähtemässä, niin sitten he tarj [View Full Entry]
