Over View of Yangshuo

Yangshuo is popular for its incredible karst scenery, beautiful mountains, rivers, caves, and temples as well as its laid back cafes and bars. However, as a result, there is no shortage of tourists, ex-pats, and other foreigners.

Yangshuo isn't your typical Chinese town and does not have the big-city feel as in most other Chinese cities. It is more like a vacation town, with wonderful restaurants and shops. Yangshuo has a reputation as a foreigners' village in Southern China and is a major stop on the trail of many independent travelers.
