Guilin's beautiful scenery has been reputed as being unrivalled in the world. This eulogy by the ancients is by no means an exaggeration. Guilin not only has hills and mountains that rise majestically from the ground, rivers and creeks with clear blue water, and caves and cavern with fascinating interiors, but also has a long history and culture of more than 2.000 years. The matchless natural beauty of Guilin, accompanied by the colorful human elaborations, makes the city worthy of its fame.
