Welcome to my gallery of photographs from a day spent wandering among the stalls at the big Fuli market. The market isn’t for the tourists but is a farmer’s market for the people of the area, near Yangshuo.
With nearly 100 million Chinese traveling abroad in the last year, China’s airlines are looking to expand their share of the business with more planes, more destinations and more promotions.
On a grouping of hilltops, in the countryside outside Yangshuo in Guangxi Province in the south of China, I spent a day wandering in a misty tea garden with no one in sight except the young woman who accompanied us.
Take a look at some of the photos in the accompanying link. There are number of trails in the world I’d not hike, and this one is probably at the top of the list. And you’ll never guess what’s at the end of the trail. More here.
West Lake is a 6.5 square kilometer freshwater lake situated in my hometown city of Hangzhou, in eastern China.
Marching through the hills of Fujian, China, from one tulou to another, I and my all-Chinese tour companions went at a clip through a beautiful riverside village, walking on paths and climbing stairways built of stone.
Between Guilin and Yangshuo in Guangxi, China, the Li River and the classic landscape are the big attractions. Bumper to bumper tourist boats shuttle visitors among the famous karst mountains and overwhelm Yangshuo town.
I have discussed the towering mountain pinnacles of Zhangjiajie National Park previously. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a spectacular place.
Nested in the northern Hunan Province of mainland China is the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park . The park is well known for its stunning eroded mountain pinnacles that are simply breathtaking!
From time to time a single photograph of a striking place or building will be the irresistible impetus for a trip to see the thing in person.
