The China Chronicles Day 6 & 7 - JZG & Off to Guilin - Photo

On the way home after a huge track from Chengdu to JZG. 7hours plus on a bus of strangers. Lucky a few could speak english.
We were playing food with one young girl. All we could say was thankyou haha









It snowed over night, WHAT THE HELL!
Last thing i expected to see in April.  It must of been the high altitude. But so awesome to see.





















Touch down! First time to see fresh snow fall. I never got to see it in Korea besides at the ski parks.












One long ride back to Chengdu and one late night flight to Guilin. Our HOW! Hostel room :)
Apparently it was the honeymoon suite as all were booked out. It has a view.
~$20 for the night








Guilin & the Li River.











Walking down the streets of Guilin. It was so hot and sticky.  Notally different to the snow of JZG and the dry heat of Chengdu









Sun and Moon Pagodas, Guilin.












Cute artwork on the paths around the pagodas.











 We are here ----->






















Were we getting scammed? From walking the streets some painting professor that apparently teaches around the world approached us and took us into his studio.









I had already bought a canvas painting but Shahid bought one on the rice paper.










Looks legit?





















Some how from the art studio we ended up drinking tea? Another scam?
One thing we did was try everything and quickly move on. Never hung around to long.
We were introduced to Osmanthus tea (Chinese: 桂花茶; pinyin: guìhuā chá)








Scam or not we got to try something local to Guilin. Even if it was a scam it was still cheap.

I believe we got ripped off when we bought some haha...Well pushed to buy someome?
We also tried lychee tea from memory.









chicken on a stick. it was pretty spicy and good












another street food i tried.

Roaming the streets of Guilin.
