First day in Yangshuo (??). The climate is mild super early in the day, we will then see our train tickets. The Chinese agency that had already seen yesterday began blue lenses! Woaou, it's too scary! Anyway ... we must return to 18h for tickets (for our return train to Beijing), maybe there will be, but not sure ...

It goes for a walk to the market, it is excellent ! They trucident animals directly to customers ... ducks, chickens, rabbits, they all pass, but no dog (it would have not surprised but hey, there must be a certain morality finally on the subject). As seen on the right picture is anyway not very clean ... animals spread belly gaping skirting the tools and grime everywhere ...


As usual, I can not help but take pictures of chickens that are crossed. In the north and large cities, I have the impression that the Chinese are looking for a little hide, but in the south we see everywhere really!


We seek a restaurant to eat at once and there ... you meet a family that had been crossed in Longsheng! Little attempt discussion is limited enough not come to understand too! Except that? one? and it? pharmacy? a?. Kapiche ? We eat with them, and Madame who manages the restaurant spoke English very well, she advises us to take the bike and go for a walk all around Yangshuo.

In downtown, you meet just bikes! That is 2 € rent for the day ... a Chinese "Guide" offers us his own location as well, but for a sum somewhat exaggerated, 10 €! It's not much of an exaggeration, yes, but ... for the Chinese I think so. I manage to lower the price to 4 € without much difficulty. Here we go! The landscapes are nice corners, everything is green, and there are these small mid-mountain mid-hills everywhere, it's really strange phenomenon as ... result of the dissolution of limestone by massive surface and underground rivers.


It runs along the Li Jiang River bicycle, the guide insists we do test the Bamboo Rafting. We stop several times but the prices are exorbitant! In general it is 18 € which are required, and tourists who come from afar just to accept it even be ripped from 25 €! Intransigent, I reject all proposals. After a few months in China I refuse to continue to rip me-all because I am a long nose! All trades, and a little farther down the river, we arrive at a boat chopper to 5.5 € for both of us and our 2 bikes. A one-hour tour on the river, enjoying the sun and a pretty unique landscape.


On arrival, a camel. It's who here? A priori, it is an animal well appreciated for the pictures in this country. In Harbin, there were the same .


It then became embedded in the caves that lie precisely in the small mountains. We should actually have rather done that which is in Guilin, in nearly the same style but with the lighting. Pictured right is the Great Wall of China. I'll spare you the rest ... Buddha, the Firebird, the Frog of the empire of cornflakes & co ... Eventually the guide will certainly earned his day: in China, guides affect? (of Sousous) by taking tourists to places pay.


We are back to Yangshuo center. There are places that produce some magic, one in the picture is an example! That evening, we walked and eat in a Chinese restaurant "standard", ie, cheap, with a menu in Chinese. Amazing, no stranger in this one, yet it is the terrace, there are plenty of people, the cooks make the dishes directly with us ... we are finally proud of not being as touristy as it !
