This is a Restaurant next to a lake in the mountain park.
Sadly today is my last full day in China...I have very much enjoyed it here. I think china is the best country I have visited and I think I will definitely be back.
Nanning is a very new city there is not very much old traditional china, and every westerner I met had either just come from Vietnam or was on their way. During the day I visited a mountain park on the outskirts of the city and did alittle hiking… In the park they have built several Old style buildings such as pagoda’s, monuments, lakes and they are building a Buddhist temple.
In Nanning as in most places in China there is a large amount of construction work although as Nanning is currently relatively small it seems as though the city will at least double in size within the next 10 years.

Taking a hike
Brilliant idea to take a hike. Looks like you got some good views from there. So, goodbye to China - what's your itinerary from now on?
