À propos de Yangshuo
The surrounding countryside is Yangshuo's greatest treasure: cycling through paddy fields between Moon Hill and the Dragon Bridge, kayaking on the calm Yulong River beneath limestone cliffs, and rock climbing on crags that tower above the town. The Impression Liu Sanjie open-air theater show uses moonlit karst mountains and river as its backdrop in a spectacular Zhang Yimou-directed production. The Ten Lis Gallery (Shili Gallery) riverside cycling route is regarded as one of China's most beautiful pastoral rides.
