Exploring the vibrant town of Yangshuo in China

We arrived on the 5th March and spent 2 weeks in the same hotel in Yangshuo as there is so much to explore and so many activities to do in and around the town. There are so many types of amazing food that we tried, from dumplings, stir fries, beer fish, the delicious fresh fruit and a vast amount of all the local Chinese sweets and treats. Each day we did a different activity or simply just explored the town to see the beautiful colours, Chinese architecture, lanterns and decorations, and locals going about their day or playing cards in the park. In terms of activities, we went to the famous Yangshuo Light Show, took cooking classes, went rock climbing (the most famous spot for rock climbing in the world), rode on the traditional bamboo boats and hiked some of the accessible karst mountains in town. During our stay we had booked for an English speaking local to help us get around and she helped us to organise activities. This was really helpful and something I would highly recommend if you do not know Mandarin.
