Natural places of interest of China

Karstic landscapes in a river valley in neighbourhoods of Guilin (Southern China) - really a fantastic show. Multithousand-year erosion of a chalkstone-shell rock has generated arabesque rocks, mysterious grottoes, numerous caves with hanging down stalactites and growing to the reports of caves stalagmites. Whether boat excursion on the river fascinates not only the itinerary, but also fantastic names of rocks: mount Slonovego of the Yoke, Drakonovy rocks, the Helmets Loved - such is an arsenal of the comparisons reflecting an arabesque diversity of their forms. Every morning in 20  km from Guilin, in Chzhutszjan, is going to the whole flotilla of the flat-bottomed boats departing on walk on the river. Back to Guilin tourists are forwarded by the autobus. The return ticket and a dinner onboard a boat are included into excursion cost.

In 7  km to the northwest from Guilin the karstic cave of the Arundinaceous Flute which have been had on depth 200  the m is had. the Romantic place with effective, a little mrachnovatym illumination and stalactites, each of which has own name, for example, a crystal palace drakonego the tsar.

Stone wood - the purpose of many tourist excursions to Kunming (capital of a province the Yunnan which has been had in the southwest of China, on boundary line with Vietnam, Laos and Myanma). Stone wood is had in 120  km to the southeast from a city; after a lining of highway the road there occupies no more 2  hours. As well as in Guajline, rocks here are formed by marine deposits which were sharply lifted during an epoch of tectonic activity, and the time and rains have given them the most arabesque forms. The legend about Stone wood is very romantic: one of daosskih the immortal has presented these rocks to one enamoured pair in the capacity of a lonely shelter.

In neighbourhoods of Kunming it is a lot of still picturesque places. One of them - park of the Charming Aspect. Here in 15th day of 8th month on a lunar calendar townspeople with colourful small lamps celebrate a Moon feast. On a front of a survey tower at the left and to the right of an entry it is possible to read parallel verses. They have equal number of lines, an equal size and rhyming. Such verses were written often on both parties of gate, on columns and walls. Verses in the park, numbering 180 hieroglyphs, - the longest in China.

Boat excursion on loch Tszjan (it is had to the southwest from Kunming) will allow to combine sweet walk on neighbouring mounts from which dazzling panoramic aspects are discovered, with informative excursion on daosskim to temples, pavilions and other constructions which have been had in neighbourhoods of loch.

On island Gushan the Loneliness mount from which the unique panorama of loch and neighbouring mounts is discovered towers. Here once there was a pavilion of the Autumn Moon over Silent Loch in which emperor Tsjanlun liked to happen moonlight nights.
