Yangshuo Li River day trip is the destination, is also a section of the most beautiful scenery in Guilin, Guilin has long been known under heaven, Guilin, Yangshuo A theory. However, far from it in the charm of Yangshuo, Yangshuo's charm in the West.
When we went to Yangshuo is the afternoon, got off and saw the same car the two foreigners, carrying a big old bag, holding an LP of the Chinese self-help manuals, into the marketing of hotel surrounded by hawkers. That loss of expression, let me recall the time in Vietnam alone and helpless situations, so ignore the hawkers around the anti-Italian, inviting them and we went together to the West to find their own accommodation, they are delighted trotted out of the station with us.
Into Yangshuo's West Street, leisure afternoon, exquisite arts and crafts business auxiliary everywhere, filled with exotic features restaurants and bars, the streets of the visitors walk through a variety of color-street under the umbrella of the idler 3322, the air diffuse a kind of scattered and freedom. Is not only 500 meters on this street, gathered from around the world idler.
At a friend's recommendation, we checked into the West's future ex hotel, a newly built hotel, rooms security net clean, decorated very Chinese, but little space a bit, price is 80 yuan \ days, I would like a room between the street by morning, sit up and watch the street coming and going street windowsill.
West Street where a row of small restaurants, each style is different, unique, but the mostly Western-based. We are in the street with cars coming Hsiao, then with the Meet the "Traveler" to eat dinner, watch the match. The pizza is said that travelers are doing the most authentic, wooden table in front of them the recipes and pictures, see the people Tunkou Shui. We ordered a pizza and restaurants recommended by Luo three samples. Although there are no expectations and pizza taste so good, but has done pretty authentic, especially compared to the price run (18 per -22 million) worth every penny, and then listen to the boss said, was the original chef has left, and now craft Indeed, less well off. Daoshi genuine fruit juice, whole fresh fruit, squeezed out, and not watered, also 6 yuan per cup, it really cheap. This will be my point of each meal drinks.
The next morning up across the street from my point of an unnamed Western-style restaurant for breakfast, holding a Tibetan antelope in the study self-help manual day tour itinerary, there are a lot of soliciting women to persuade us to take a bamboo raft tour Lijiang. One girl wandering on our side for a long time, perhaps her eyes struck me, and I agreed to invite her to do guide, took us to the Yulong River. Rented a bike from the street along the road that we rode for more than an hour to Baisha town, since turned into the countryside to go to Yulong Qiao paths, the way a lot of gravel, compare bumps, but along the vast golden rice fields, lining with green onion mountain school of rural scenery. We rode Jinlong Bridge, (in the Yulong Qiao before the 500 meters), the opposite is the Lu Ban built Yulong Qiao, graceful arc across the top of the Yulong River, the river clear reflection of a clear out of both sides of the peaks , the two sides are large tracts of rice paddies.
Lijiang Yulong River is also known as a small, landscape and echoes the Lijiang River, intended to take the bamboo raft from drifting to the big banyan tree along the Yulong River. Before and boatman on the raft to talk about price is 120 yuan, because we also think of the bridge where the upper reaches of the rich look, finally agreed to add 30 yuan to 150 yuan deal of money. Reverse the previous tour, we walked for nearly an hour before the Fuli Bridge, a semi-circular-shaped bridge across the river surface, curvature larger than the Yulong Qiao, followed by the reflection of the water happens to constitute a full circle, listening to boatman said, This bridge is built in Luban wife.
Jinlong drift down from the bridge, along the way should be paved with 28 dams, washed down from the dam process more exciting, and sometimes water is not enough acute and rafts will be stuck in the dam, under the raft and the boatman had to join the raft carried over. Throughout the drift process took nearly eight hours, half-way encounter rain, the rainbow after the rain across the cross-strait peaks, river mist, such as yarn.
8:30 in the evening when we arrived in large banyan tree, the sky is already black, and the girls still stand on the banks of the neighborhood carefully guarding our bikes, and a look worried expression. Girl's home is in large banyan tree, do not trust her alone, one person came back, and they asked the direction and along the forks in the road, we have decided on their own ride back to Yangshuo. While we all brought a dome light, but she still has been using the torch lighting for us, very far out of hand tube of the beam is still slightly behind the lit ... ..
To Yangshuo for almost 10 o'clock in the morning to eat with the appointment of the Pijiu Yu Hsiao-long and so hungry, in order to save strength, we have plunged headlong into the mouth of the West, "Pi Jiuyu big stall." Local Dingding famous Pijiu Yu originally referred to a way to do fish, what fish can do, generally have mandarin fish, sword fish and grass carp bones, according to the type of fish, prices are not the same. We have chosen 30 yuan \ jin bone sword fish, filling some beer, till the non-juice, one came, the broader market, fragrance lovers, and fish and meat is tender and delicious. And then point to a style snail, fried eggplant patties, authentic local dishes, accompanied by two bottles of Quanpi Jiu Li River, which meals to eat two sides Oh, spirits and go.
The next day up, the sky it began to rain, rain, West hazy and poetic. Our next door "Marco Polo" restaurant point of the two sub-American breakfast, two glasses of freshly squeezed juices, research a day trip. The rain stops the sun came out, the sun shines through the umbrella body stirred warm lazy Italian, are increasingly the street. Next to the number of bought paving intellectual toys, few foreigners are concentrating on motor performance of the stall holders to see patients part, we saw stall holders picked up two seamless magic ring, loading module to do like Chuikou Qi, gently struck, Even the two rings together. Exclaimed after a while you have go out and buy ring apprenticeship. Look at me look at the essence of the side looked fine flavored, a foreigner is very friendly when you single out one from the stall of the box on my hand, and hinted that I opened a drawer, I Yiyan act immediately to open a bang out of a drawer a big fluffy spider flutter in my hands, I spot the Scream Mianwurense scared, but he did blame the side face full of Huaixiao phase. After a child, he also brings a serious pick up another box on my hand, it was filled with a big rat. Ultimately, in order to apologize, he intended to Zhezhi mouse gave me, but I declined.
Sat down at noon, met just out of bamboo hotel Hsiao, get together to "Red Star Express" to eat lunch o'clock were chicken wings, French fries and Borscht. May claim to fame, the restaurant's guests are more, eats dinner with 3322's sit, chat, playing chess and cards, all lent their music.
When that Hemingway's style of foreign elderly came when I was drinking a second cup juice. For the elderly looks awesome, a snow-white hair and beard, a red checked shirt. They sit down at the table, he took out a small flashlight looking at the menu, close the eyes pooled. He ordered coffee and snacks were always made a quiet afternoon. Girl said that this restaurant is the name of the elderly veterans, injuries suffered during the war, and now our eyes will soon see, and since two years ago, had come to Yangshuo after, it never left, always a man loner. Maybe his expression, perhaps his story attracted me, and I walked over to him拍几张照片made, he smiled agreed. They chatted, I learned that he had from the U.S. state of West Darfur Ermenegildo Zegna, he had previously lived in Los Angeles for five years, and later returned to his Buddha Zegna his mother's farm, and then come here because they like, they left a down. Why is a person physically and mentally exhausted, we will choose in a distant foreign land with dignity, I have some curiosity, but I did not ask the old man's body must filled story.
At night we go to "Tintin," a wall full of all kinds of comic books, full of childlike innocence restaurant. We ordered a beer, ducks and brine shrimp. Excellent taste beer duck, color incense and taste, is not worse than the Pijiu Yu. Lijiang grass shrimp, Take the salty boiled boiling, and finish it is also a fresh Smoothness of.
By nature of our wine to the Lijiang River Edge closing step, a return to Lijiang River to enjoy the moonlight. Glass in the light of the West, I again saw the old man, wearing dark sunglasses, Deputy, marched quietly and steady pace, without crutches, familiar ease, as if walking in their own courtyard.
The next two world began to rain heavily, what is that most of the day, we had to cancel plans to walk, but also give us a good excuse to stay in West Street, the full enjoyment of leisure and fun. West is a magical place, easy people to get caught at random to find a street of restaurants, a cup of coffee, a glass of beer, sit lazy day, from different places, regardless of nationality and race together Shenkan. Evening for family pub, and talk to the night, Come Drink With Me and go.
From the Batik, ethnic clothing, silverware, hand-painted lanterns Cangshi to Nepal, like something you can pick a day. Of course, haggling is also a pleasure. Street video stores, to find a good number of rare records, select a few to get a restaurant, you can listen to on the day.

Chinese and Western restaurants which is a karst rock climbing enthusiasts gathering place, the boss Huang Chao and Xiao-Yan Wu, and Richard cafe next door to the old iron master figures are of rock climbing circles. However, Huang Chao has been out for two years, the old iron heard that have also left.
