River, you can
appreciate verdant - rolling hills, clear
- running waters, mysterious caves and breath-taking
cliffs. By a boat trip starting from Guilin,
the first point of interest is the pagoda-capped
Elephant
Trunk Hill, long used
as the symbol of Guilin.
A little further downstream, the Pagoda
Hill will be seen. Its hexagonal pagoda
is called Longevity Buddha Pagoda and dates
back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Then
a series of beautiful scenes come into view,
such as the Yearning-for-Husband's-Return
Rock resembling a lady with her baby, the
Crown Crag Hill with a big water eroded
cave, which has various stalactites, stone
pillars and rocks, the Picture Hill showing
naturally-shaped images of nine horses in
different positions, the Yellow Cloth Beach
with the most beautiful water reflection
of surrounding peaks, etc.. The cruise ends
at the colorful market town of Yangshuo.
