Why take a bus when you can take a boat cruise through the amazing karst peaks up the Li river to the beautiful village of Yangshou from Guilin.  Now , maybe saying village is an understatement.  While it is a village, they get over 13 million visitors a year to see the amazing landscape, the beautiful caves, and the amazing river opera which is the largest natural outdoor opera in the world.  It is no longer the lovely village that back packers enjoyed when I visited in 2002.  Now people will have to visit smaller more remote villages if you want to escape the crowds.
