Li River Cruise (4 hours)
The Li River winds its way southward through the picturesque landscapes of Guilin and Yangshuo before merging with the Xijiang River, a major tributary of the Pearl River. Historically, the Li River was a vital artery connecting the Yangtze River Valley and the Pearl River Delta through the ancient Lingqu Canal. This 83-kilometer stretch from Guilin to Yangshuo is renowned for its breathtaking beauty, characterized by dramatic limestone peaks, lush bamboo groves, and charming rural villages. As a Chinese poem eloquently describes, the river is a “green silk ribbon” adorned with “jade hairpin” hills. Cruising the Li River is an enchanting experience in any weather. Sunny days reveal stunning reflections of the karst formations, while misty conditions create an ethereal atmosphere. Even a gentle rain adds a touch of poetry to the journey.
