Location
Nestled in northeast Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Guilin enjoys a prime position along the Li River, about 400 kilometers northwest of Guangzhou. This compact city (population 5 million) serves as the gateway to southern China's stunning karst landscapes, with high-speed rail connections to major cities (3 hours to Nanning, 5 hours to Shenzhen).
City Profile
Renowned as China's original "picture-postcard" destination, Guilin balances tourism with academia as home to Guangxi Normal University and other institutions. While smaller than coastal metropolises, its UNESCO-recognized scenery and relaxed pace attract expats seeking natural beauty and authentic Chinese culture beyond megacities.
Cultural Scene
Beyond natural wonders, experience minority Zhuang and Yao culture through performances at the Guilin Grand Theater or weekend markets. The city's literary heritage shines at the former residence of poet Wang Zheng, while contemporary artists gather at the Guilin Art Museum.
Must-See Attractions
The Li River cruise (4 hours to Yangshuo) showcases Guilin's iconic karst scenery. Reed Flute Cave's illuminated stalactites and Elephant Trunk Hill's riverside silhouette are photogenic classics. For active exploration, bike through Yangshuo's countryside or hike the terraced fields at Longji (2-hour drive).
Culinary Specialties
Guilin's flavors reflect its riverine setting:
- Guilin rice noodles (早餐必备!) with pickled vegetables and peanuts
- Beer Fish (Yangshuo's signature dish)
- Lipu taro pork (荔浦芋头扣肉) - savory steamed pork with taro
- Osmanthus cake (桂花糕), fragrant with local flowers
