Half-hour or so we started the road, 14:56 Hezhou entered the territory of asphalt, road narrows significantly, mountain bend over, falls down a drizzly, wet, and I was feeling OK clouds between Guangdong and Guangxi's economic gap, in a downhill curve, there is no fighting over the steering wheel, the car stuck in a roadside ditch, originally about to hit a mountain, because the chassis is low, so that a group mud stuck, so have to charge up when the point of twists and turns. We unfasten their seat belts off to observe a moment terrain, I put up a front of the road warning signs, according to the Internet to see the knowledge, strong winds sent for wood and carpet pad in the car rear wheel, take the initiative to help a fellow crossing the , with strong winds, Xiao-Jiang even pushing the car with a lift to get in the ranks. Probably delay of 8 minutes, would you, but fortunately no cars were passing by near misses L17: 00 we enter Hezhou area, on the so-called "urban roads", the traffic much better. To see a gas station, to be numbered only 90, the high oil price is 3.1 yuan / liter, high winds say plus 50, paid 155 yuan each other can you drive a long way have not seen the instructions needle up the fuel tank, and later a Sato, we say that 50 people plus 50 dollars Canadian oil, gas stations were also installed confused, overcharged us money.

17:56 (Raymond Road), Zhongshan Station uplink (7 RMB)
19:00 Yangshuo - the source of two Highway 2 Tong (7 RMB)
19:46 arrived in Yangshuo County. County hotels many Bilian Lane, there are many new family hotel, renovated okay, facilities are complete, we saw the room to bargain on the boss and finally asked for a three-room total of 300 yuan (days hotels 0773-8825180) The proprietor said the team will have room the next day, we can only live one day, but it is near a lot of the hotels, no worries about no place to live. We ate dinner at a nearby Third Sister Liu Pi Jiuyu (48 yuan / jin hair bone fish), taste good, the price and Shenzhen gear almost did not we imagine a cheap, five people ate 160. After dinner we would walk to the West. West Street is indeed a good place to go clubbing, each bar have their special characteristics, Looking back on music, you can not help but to go in and sit, not to find a way and let their children get drunk intoxicated. We went to that home is the "Tintin Hotel", which the brazier of Health, there are a lot of "Adventures of Tintin," the illustrations, the atmosphere is very relaxed, nearby table would have a foreign girl and her grandmother would like a photo, and she happily agreed. "Tintin" consumer is very cheap, we bubble to 12 points, only 47 per checkout.
Night I was living in the open air-conditioned room sounds like a tractor, the room can not find the light switch, on the bed of the attendants do not bother to go downstairs to find, only the lights on in the deep hum of voices endure a night. Only later did I know the switch in the room outside, strange, how is this design?
D2: 2 Ri Yue 3
I am out the door to find a peaceful hotel diagonally opposite the lives (and warm hotel 0773-8862995,8827792,8827637), the room should be a little bigger, booked a triple and a standard room, a total of 260 yuan. The boss said that if not a golden week, prices usually only 50-80 yuan / rooms. Ate prior to departure 2 yuan in the vicinity of Guilin rice noodle bowl, one bowl, which can be considered the most characteristic Guilin breakfast, the taste was really good. Yangshuo County, there are gas stations, 3.6 yuan / liter 97 oil, we added a 200. There is a local girl to find our guides tell us to do, she said she read two days, winter break out of earned fees, took us 50 yuan a day, and we let her go with Takada. Later, to prove that she knew no more than we know, we do not ask her not speaking, even if the talk also did not elaborate, with her is really a cumbersome, the end of the morning we gave her 20 yuan let her go.
Takada away from the scenic town close to the road Yehao walk, we drove only 10 minutes, many people ride bicycles to go. Third Sister Liu tickets for the big banyan tree to 15 yuan / person, it is worth watching, scenery quaint elegance, quiet comfort. Bamboo raft drifting, Yung Yin Furuwatari, Yuanshanjinshui patchwork, people wander as in the painting. In order to take pictures, high winds found a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, toward that bamboo one-stop, it becomes a knight of ancient Hei hei:) very much like a martial arts movie stills yo ~~~~:) Mountains of the Moon is 9 per ticket, if you that is to the moon their mother's food, let her come out to accept you do not have Mai Menpiao. Moon mother more than 60-year-old to understand eight languages, China Central Television also interviewed her, was a very lean, very spiritual, very cheerful, very talkative rural women, and she can stay home, old-fashioned cottage, but the facilities are complete, very clean, at the door we can see the Mountains of the Moon. I was behind her home vegetable cruise a bit, then vegetables, then a long, but attractive, I excitedly took a cabbage. Mountains of the Moon is a world famous rock climbing destination, but when we go down the rain, slippery, we do not climb.
The next is to Xingping.
Xingping more than one hour's drive away from the town, we parked at the pier, 7 yuan parking fees. The same kind of hair bone fish, as long as 25 yuan a pound in Xingping, plus a plate of Lao Shurou and other extra dishes, Chinese spent only 100 yuan, really tasty and inexpensive.
We had intended to travel xingping - Yang Di this classic line, but the tube Guilin tourism sector is very strict, only the upper reaches down to the boat, are not allowed to go up downstream. So we had to go to a fishing village. To the fishing village of tickets 20 yuan / person, tickets are 5 yuan / person.
China is a typical fishing village, an ancient village of Lingnan culture, nearly 500 years. The village difficult terrain, scenic beauty, there is still a well-preserved traditional houses 48, brick black tiles, sloping roof, Ma Tau walls, eaves and windows carved painted buildings, with the typical characteristics of residents in northern Guangxi Chinese Ming and Qing Dynasties. Kang, Sun Yat-sen, Clinton have come to fishing villages, and now this route has also been named as a "presidential line." We got a little horse in the fishing village walls, but also a warning visitors not to shoot down to the roof of the notices, Hei hei:) Is there Mody tourists in that jump?
17:30 back to Yangshuo, in the old West to eat the food stalls, people are too many shops simply too busy, the other half a day, etc. to the food not tasty, service is not OK without food to what, but also spent 125 billion, is the worst of our trip to eat one. Had known in the West should be to eat Western food, and are said to be authentic, or at least time-consuming Western does not like Chinese food so so long.
Windy night and I took the tripod to the West took a night is too busy.
D3: 2 Ri Yue 4
Breakfast remains the Guilin rice noodles, next to the gas station with car wash, and we put the car on that wash, the original thought that soon it was cured, can be only one person in that wash, spent nearly an hour, charges 20 yuan more than in Shenzhen are expensive .
9:52 We left Yangshuo (Yangshuo two toll stations 8 RMB), opened about 10 minutes to turn right to go to Yang Di, 12KM of the asphalt road is narrow, there are cattle Road logo, but also really see the cattle, and I am surprised how cow's mouth set with a bamboo basket, high winds, said that's not simple - "Do not bite indiscriminately crops, it is not time to eat."
10:45 to the Yang Di, met the other two vehicles in Shenzhen come on tour together around the Lijiang River, and the boatman on a good 35 yuan / person, but 12 points in order to sail, as the Marine Police at that time before going to dinner . We ferried across the river to the other ship, but failed to lift until the 2:00 warning, but added in the Yang Di drying the morning sun. Yang Di to Xingping this a lot of "Mix" and walk about 20 kilometers along the Lijiang River road crossing was to be placed three times, 2 yuan per person. Young to mention xingping northwest direction, if you are a "color" Friends, then have to consider the operation of the sun affect the trajectory of the shot, such a walk in the morning light backlighting shun the afternoon. ,
14:03 we left for half of the crossing, driving 13 minutes, there are winding corners, narrow roads, be careful. 14:30 There kwan'am travel company to half a free ferry crossing, the ship opened to the kwan'am 20 minutes, this section of the Lijiang River scenery is also beautiful, sitting in boat slowly to appreciate better. Kwan'am tickets a person 60, there are underground rivers, caves. First, take sightseeing elevator to the inside, sit a small train, and then a boat. 700 meters of underground rivers, are not equipped with lighting facilities, each tourist has a seat next to a flashlight, it can do easily see, taste the feeling of adventure. These and all-inclusive tour costs an additional fee in the ticket is not required, but the cave has an indoor waterfall is the need for 3 yuan / person tickets. We do not have to eat lunch, the door nothing to eat, only spiced eggs, to 1 yuan 1. Many of the cave in Guilin, it is recommended to look at one can be, and the world's caves are similar, kwan'am tour There are many ways to see, said it is therefore also on the Guinness. 17:00 kwan'am half of the ferry crossing back to us.
In the left half of the crossing of the mountain, the wind caught the beautiful sunset, if time and then later more beautiful, but we plan to go to Dragon's Back, we must hurry. 18:06 We are 22 km away from Guilin, a roadside restaurant to eat dinner (Wanshun restaurants 0773-3550404 Jiang boss), only our table guests, and vegetables taste good, the price is also cheap, only 54. So there cars to eat with friends not to drive busy crowded places, to partial point of a place to eat rice farmer, he had time to take your time to do, delicious and affordable!
19:07 Yingbin Road, Guilin City toll station (10RMB). Zhongshan South Road out of toll booths to go to Guilin can be seen to appreciate the lighting engineering, lighting design is very good and bright, so that you suspect to the earthly paradise. But that the streets were bright, only that South Railway Station does not shine, we find the way to the Dragon's Back bend to find for a long time, it is because do not see the South Railway Station, where the westbound (from Yangshuo to the direction of left ), is the way to the Dragon's Back.
19:47 Guilin Liangjiang Airport Road Toll Station (10RMB) highway
20:20 Guilin End Tian Toll (5RMB) secondary roads, some did not acceptance. Opened about 17 minutes to see the intersection of peace, it is an inconspicuous sign, line clouds and a small river had never seen, followed by a plate to go mountain, car rose up a circle, surrounded by no others, just the way we are a car, we have seen, but can see the range of lights, this feeling of driving at night is very strange, people suddenly think of the "30,000 feet", I feel unreal. Clouds that's right, look at terraced Mody, always looking at the Peak. But not long after we started down a circle, as if turned over a mountain, though I see the signs, but not confident, and hard-to see a family get off inquiries, and that the villagers do not understand what to listen I only know that going forward to go to Dragon's Back. 21:06 we finally see the fork in the road, turn right - "Dragon's Back terraced 17KM", on the road there is a hotel advertising, we call the past, know the place we live, also an under the heart come. Has completed the 17KM there is still a 6KM winding mountain roads, driving at night must be careful!
21:52 we went to the Dragon's Back. (Peace Village) parking lot has been full of parked the car, and had thought that such a middle of the night to be able to escape tickets, did not expect that the ticket does not give us accommodation, a person must 30 yuan, expensive!
Dragon's Back terraced fields on reclaimed from the Yuan Dynasty, and is located in Longsheng peace Zhuang Autonomous Township, mainly live in and the Red Yao Zhuang, terraced fields is the more peaceful villages and Dazhai, Dazhai village has 30 years to the Ping Shan Road, walk 3-4 hours, the water is terraced down from the hills cited roughly be filled in April, when the terrace is the best early June to see the green and yellow from September to October, of course, the season is the most good-looking We went this winter. Ping village more than 800 people, Zhuang, all surnamed Liao, Ping Village to see there are two terraces viewing platform, east and west on the 1st observation deck on the 2nd viewing platform, the direction of these two observation deck sunrise and sunset on the beat is very important, leading to the observation deck on the 1st Dazhai, said first and then returning to peaceful village of Dazhai no person to vote, but we did not try.
There are several girls in the parking lot Zhuang invited us to her home is 15 yuan / person, It is said that well-known moon in the House who have lived here, and previously made a telephone call location of the hotel do not know where, we also let the few a girl took to her house to see.

Five individuals are tired, but 1:30 would still go to sleep, chat in the living room around the charcoal fire, wind in the kitchen found a photographic subject matter, to the hotel owner took many pictures of her big sister back to us and are now doing oleifera . Camellia oleifera processes are complex, first the cooked rice and dried spare, do it with lard, stirring up, and then turn on the water, tea, soya bean, chrysanthemum, sesame and other 10 variety of things, a very special taste to a certain degree to try taste of.

Have been a lot of people watch the sun rise on the 2nd Taiwan, and erected a lot of tripod, and the scene is very spectacular, but the wind, cold dead, there are two girls wrapped in a bed quilt was also standing there shivering. Probably waiting for an hour before the sun come out, because the mountains block the location of the sunrise, we have seen the light when the sun is very strong, no effect of the sunrise, but in the moment I see the sun, and a group of people who do not know shout slogans of a, ah ah had several more for themselves waiting for such a long time to be an explanation.
Back to the hotel when the wind and I lost, Heidengxiahuo time is virtually impossible to find their way out of this daybreak and complex mountain and seeing them dizzy, bad luck is that we have cell phones, no walkie-talkie with the hotel's name had not recorded housing, strong winds had hit on a fellow home phone line clouds, and they asked the name of the hotel only to find it back. A good fellow, and we told him it was long distance, and he has only taken us a money.
9:30 Back at the hotel, the owner gives us prepared bamboo-tube rice and fresh wild mushrooms soup, extremely delicious!

Opened a quarter of an hour, they arrive at a Natiao secondary road under construction. Gee!

Good insurance!
This line summary:
1, Xingping - Yang Di essence of the Lijiang River is best done on foot travel plans, because the management of Guilin's tourism sector is dead, only to take the whole boat, time-consuming and expensive, but in a local looking for the "black ships" can not guarantee on time sail, or delay their time. Of course, the foot needs sunny and good physical strength, this section of track 20KM, 6 hours, three times the transition from driving to a friend may wish to consider the car parked in Yangshuo in the morning you can catch a ride to the afternoon on foot to the Yang Di xingping, night clubbing back to Yangshuo. Between the wide variety of attractions without having exhausted, this is the best section of Lijiang, and select a sunny day, in the scenic walk, is to hang stays rafts, imagine addition to the "nine horse painting Mountain", you can for these landscapes What to take a poetic name.
2, the friends visited cave is no need to go kwan'am, and all the holes are a sample, karst landforms, underground river, colorful lights, there are similar legends. However, a child has never been to bring him to experience, kwan'am indeed I have seen the greatest way to get around the largest caverns.
3, to Yangshuo West Street to eat Western food meal, I have not eaten now regret it dead, so petty bourgeoisie, a woman, how to Yangshuo no funding meal then? Pi Jiuyu delicious, Lipu-taro head molded dried vegetable Pork Pork is absolutely no good, chicken and normally, I would rather lingering is the question of the chili sauce.
4, the locals are honest, even though we spent a penny more in some places, still think so. If you search enough information on the Internet, you can not have a guide, the road does not understand and asked, gradually came to appreciate the natural beauty or your own good.
