Where to sleep in Guilin — the neighborhoods and the picks, siesta side to fiesta side.
Guilin city — the transit base
Two Rivers and Four Lakes lit at night — a springboard more than a destination.
Yangshuo — inside the karst
Peaks in every window, cycling lanes through the paddies — stay here longer.
Xingping — the river bend
The 20-yuan-note view at dawn without the day-boat crowds.
Longji terraces — the dragon's back
Wooden guesthouses stacked in the rice-terrace amphitheater.
