4. Guilin

Guilin was a personal favorite for me, from the moment I stepped out of the airport, it was evening and everything was gloriously lit up with colorful neon lights. All of the traditional landscape Chinese paintings that I have seen must have been inspired by this idyllic place. My lasting memories are of the stunningly beautiful caves which all have secrets and which the guide was only too eager to share with me. The only more stunning thing than all of this was to be able to see it from above on a cable car.
