At one time just the little sister to GuiLin, today YangShuo has become a global village. YangShuo has been influenced by many years as a magnet for backpackers from the world over, though it still has the charm of a small south-China town. It nestles among beautiful natural scenery along the Li River, and has exciting outdoor activities, wonderful dining and an energetic nightlife.

Chóngzhōu lies about 35 kilometers west of downtown ChengDu. A beautiful film ...

'Better City - Better Life'. May 1st to October 31st 2010. Awesome ...

Near LiJiang, in YunNan province. With Walk East ...

Filmed in August 2010. Includes the famous 'plank walk' at the end; this is perched precariously on a cliff face that is well over 1000m above the valley below, in a sheer drop. The plank walk is on the east peak, which is about a 15km walk / climb from the north peak. HuaShan ('Flower Mountain', or 'Splendid Mountain') lies in southern ShaanXi province, about 120km east of Xi'An; it is one of the five sacred Taoist mountains, with four main peaks. There are hiking trails to all four peaks and a cable car to the north peak. The south peak is highest at 2155 meters. There are a number of hotels and hostels around the base.
