The Li River, a gem in Guangxi Province, flows 83 kilometres through Guilin and Yangshuo and showcases the largest and most beautiful karst landscape. The meandering river, beautiful green hills, tranquil farmlands, and rustic villages weave together into a breathtaking ink-wash masterpiece. This is the picturesque landscape shown on the 20 Chinese yuan note.

You can take a cruise down the river or sit on the bamboo raft to admire this gorgeous scenery. Beyond being a favorite among domestic travelers, Yangshuo has become a paradise for travellers globally. Travel magazines like National Geographic and Lonely Planet have repeatedly ranked it among the world’s must-visit destinations.
