Guilin Day 2

---

Today we drove the one and half ours back to Guilin (not as scenic as the Li River). Guilin is a nice city although it isn't huge when comparing it to other cities. It has restrictions on the height of the buildings at the moment which is not such a bad thing. We travelled to the Reed Flute Caves. It is funny that they have two entrances to the caves - one for tourists and one for the Chinese. This is to stop any fights in line as the locals tend to just push in and the tourists don't like to stand for that. The caves were amazing although they were quite crowded (and this is low season - I would have hated to be in there when it was truly crowded.) Some people took the optional walk up Mt Diecai which is a low karst mountain although many took the option to relax or walk around Guilin. We had our flight to Shanghai in the morning so we had an early night after our lovely meal.
