Luxury Holidays to Guilin & Yanshou
Avid travellers have long kept Guilin and Yangshuo a secret—it’s simply too good to share. Yet this region of China is becoming increasingly high-profile as whispers of its beauty and tranquillity spread. It’s the perfect antidote to the frenetic pace of China’s big cities. If you're looking to embark on a luxury holiday to China, make sure to include this peaceful corner in your itinerary.
What to Expect from a Guilin & Yanshou Holiday
Located in southern China, the picturesque city of Guilin sits on the banks of the Li River. Quieter Yangshuo is a little farther downstream, set against a stunning backdrop of emerald limestone karsts. Both offer outstanding outdoor activities like trekking and mountain climbing and an excellent choice of small, intimate boutique hotels and top-end luxury resorts.
Among the most popular activities are guided boat cruises on the river. Breathtaking scenery, including cascading waterfalls, unfolds at every bend. You can hop off to celebrated attractions like the Reed Flute Cave and intricate stone Buddha carvings.
