During my visit to Guilin, I had a series of memorable experiences.
I took a fast train from Guangzhou to Guilin, which was a convenient and enjoyable ride.
Once I arrived at Guilin, I had a relaxing night walk at Guilin Rong Lake, which was absolutely beautiful.
The next day, I visited a local Cultural Native Village where I learned how to make handmake peanut biscuits, which was a fun and unique experience.
I also took a bamboo raft ride along the Li River, which was incredibly scenic and peaceful.
Another highlight of my trip was visiting the Guilin Reed Flute Cave, where I was amazed by the stunning rock formations and the thousand pair of hands circling a Buddha statue on the wall. Lastly, I had a fall experience at Guilin North Train Station, which was a bit scary but thankfully I didn’t sustain any serious injuries.
Overall, Guilin was a wonderful destination with so much to see and explore.

Guilin Temple In Cave
I am not a religious person, but by chance, our guide brought us to this temple on the way to the train station.
This temple is a few hundred years old, build into a cave.
When you enter the main temple chamber, you will see a thousand pair of hands circling a Buddha statue on the wall – amazing !
As you enter a tunnel, you realized that there is a super long sleeping Buddha lying against the wall tunnel from entrance to exit.
Next, you will see a large chamber of 800 monk statues, each with an identification number,
