Yangshuo, China

After just one day in Guilin, I decided to head for Yangshuo, a pretty if very touristy town about 1 hour south of Guilin. Yangshuo is set amongst hundreds of Karst formations, innumerable lakes, and two rivers. The streets of the town are all cobblestone and store fronts are lined with traditional red lights which adds to its charm, especially in the evening. Sam and I met up here a few hours ago for dinner and to check out what this town has to offer. Getting a tip from a local, we feasted on tianluoniang, a local delicacy of stuffed field snails. They were phenomenal. If you ever come to China, make sure to try them. Enough said.
