Yesterday, I went for a bike ride through the countryside around Yangshuo and had lunch at an inn along the side of the road. The inn had its own adjacent farm with fresh, organically grown vegetables and livestock.
We ordered garlic chicken and got to choose the chicken ourselves. They first brought out a live chicken for us, but Jesse (one of the Chinese students that I went with) thought it was too big and wanted a different one. They let him choose the one he wanted and gave him the net to catch it with. LOL!
We also got pump our own water from the well out front.
After lunch, we visited the Li River, taking in the scenery along the way.
I saw a lot of interesting sites such as rock climbers climbing the karst rock formations, people riding bamboo rafts down the Li River, and farmers taking their cattle or water buffalo for walks along the road. It's definitely not something you see in Irvine everyday!
why did you pick yangshuo particularly to stay 2 months? and elsewhere like yading just passing by?
