YANGSHUO: China's Most Beautiful Mountains | Best Things To Do
Your definitive travel guide to Yangshuo, China: The most beautiful mountains I've ever seen.
We'll take a look at Yangshuo's nightlife, climbing to the best viewpoints, the best accommodation and all of the best things to in the national park.

CHINA SERIES FULL PLAYLIST:
SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL, it's the best way to support me and means I can keep making more content. I currently upload a new episode every Tuesday:
Here's a detailed breakdown of information as mentioned in the film (a table of contents, if you will):
0:30 - Views from the Train Ride from Hong Kong to Yangshuo
1:14 - Arriving in Yangshuo: What is the town like?
A bit of background on the town and how it might not be the nature serenity you are looking for.
1:35 - How to get to the Yangshuo TV Tower Viewpoint (hard climb)
The best views in Yangshuo are accessible from the town centre, but it's a pretty long climb up to the top of a mountain. We followed the instructions on how to get there by ILP Blog, a really good article. Remember to bring 10 Yuan per person:
3:23 - This is what the TV Tower view looks like
4:03 - The Views from Yangshuo Park (easy climb)
A much less physically demanding climb to some nice views over the town. It's a really nice public park too, definitely worth checking out.
4:28 - Our Accommodation, Sudder Street Guesthouse
Great place to stay, just outside the town centre. An amazing pool, with great views. Dorms are £3 a night and private rooms (en-suite) with a balcony are £18.
4:55 - Yangshuo National Park
This is where you'll spend most of your time and where you will find the famous bamboo rafts that you've seen on Instagram. We rented bicycles to get around, but some people rent mopeds/motorbikes instead. You're going to want the freedom of your own transport.
6:00 - Here's the bamboo rafts
6:26 - Moon Hill, my favourite sunset spot (and favourite part of Yangshuo in general). A natural archway that has featured in one of the Transformers films I think.
And thats it. Any questions, let me know in the comments!

INSIDE Beijing with Jin Ye | Travel Guide | AUGUST 2017
You're watching INSIDER TV - the insider's guide to the world's most exciting cities!
Here's your essential Beijing travel guide this month of August 2017! Our host Jin Ye tours us around the best places to eat, drink, shop, and play in Beijing.
Beijing is a big city and it's often said that if you've never been to this city then you've never really been to China. To make the most out of your stay in Beijing, get a Smart Card which you will use to pay for rides on the subway, city buses, some taxis (taxis with the sign of ‘Welcome to Use IC Card’) and the airport express train.
One of the most stunning landmarks in China is The Great Wall which was recognized as a World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987. It was continuously built from the 3rd century BC to the 17th century AD on the northern border of the country as the great military defence project of successive Chinese Empires, with a total length of more than 20,000 kilometers. This national symbol is an outstanding example of the superb military architecture, technology and art of ancient China.
While in Beijing, make sure you check out these TOP ATTRACTIONS:
* The Old Implements Museum
* Forbidden City
* Summer Palace
* Great Wall of China
* Temple of Heaven
* Yonghe Lamasery
* Water Cube
* Beijing Opera

20+ Incredible Eats in Xi'an, China
I've been waiting almost 3 years to go to Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi Province in China.
Why? Because the food there is supposed to be some of the best in the world.
Because of the variety of people, geography, and climate - China's food varies considerably from province to province. Xian is home to many Hui people - a Muslim ethnic minority. The city is considered to be China's start-line of the silk road. Many Arabs settled in the area after coming to trade their wares. They brought with them their food, including many types of bread that weren't previously popular in China. They also bred many sheep for meat, since they don't eat pork (the most popular meat in China). This cuisine adapted over the years, adjusting to Chinese cooking methods, ingredients, and the tastes of the Han people.
Huimen Street, also known as the Xi'an Muslim Quarters is a huge tourist attraction, and it's mostly packed with food. Chinese people love to eat regional specialties and there is plenty of that in Xi'an. But of course, we veered off the beaten path, heading deep into the Muslim quarters where the Hui people actually go to eat. We stuffed ourselves for 3 days, which wasn't nearly enough time to try everything. It was an amazing experience, and Xi'an has become one of my favorite places in China.
The food from the video:
Egg cake - 鸡蛋糕
Grilled Octopus
Crispy Chili Peppers with Peanuts
Braised sheep hooves
Oil Cake - 油饼
Dragon's breath candy - 龙的呼吸
Youcha (a powder used to make a thick soup broth) - 油茶
Osmanthus Cake - 桂花糕
Biang biang noodles
Beef dry noodles - 牛肉干拌面
Bean sauce noodles AKA zhajiang noodles - 炸酱面
Fairy bean cake - 仙豆糕
Sticky cake sweet rice - 镜糕甜饭
Chinese Hamburger AKA rou jia mo - 肉夹馍
Lamb kebabs - 羊肉串
Big plate chicken - 大盘鸡
Crispy beef patties - 香酥牛肉饼
Lamb and Flat Bread Soup AKA Yang Rou Pao Mo - 羊肉泡馍
Sweet pickled garlic - 糖蒜
Sour soup lamb dumplings AKA suantang dumplings - 酸汤饺子
Ding Ding fried noodles - 丁丁炒面
While I love Xi'an's cuisine, my heart belongs to Sichuan. I live in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan, and I've written a guide to Sichuan food. Check it out if you are going to the area.
