Silver Cave

24-11-2010 WED 11:11AM  We arrived at the entrance to Silver Cave.

After visiting two of Guilin's stalactite and stalagmite caves, we learn to be considerate and avoid touching the formations because the natural oils from our hands will "kill" the stalactite/stalagmite, preventing further mineral buildup.

Unfortunately, through the years many of visitors have not heeded this advice, and many of Guilin's beautiful caves have been irreparably damaged.

Cormorant Bird catching fish
10:43AM On the way to see Cormorant Bird catching fish. 16 of us divided into 2 bamboo rafts and enjoy a 5 minutes short ride on the bamboo raft. But before we can see the fisherman fishing, we first "MUST" sing the local folk songs 'against ' three 'Scholars' - (Siew Chai). This part of the tour programme is designed only for Chinese who knows the story of Shanjia Liu. Non Chinese may see this is a meaningless activity.
There, at distant of the Li River, are the 3 scholars on another bamboo raft waiting to challenge us with the local folk songs. (see photo below)

Cormorant Bird catching fish

Cormorant is a large water bird with an primitive appearance with its long neck making it appear almost reptilian.
Often seen standing with its wings held out to dry. Cormorants are supreme fishers.
This fascinating bird is able to dive under water for a long time to searches for fish. The bird then catches the fish in its beak and returns to the surface.

The bird is unable to swallow the fish as a string has been tied loosely around its neck. The fisherman, who is on a bamboo raft will lift the bird onto the raft and remove the fish and drop it into a basket. The bird then goes back into the water to try to catch another.
The birds are treated very well all of their lives by the fisherman as they are essential for catching food for their families.

The young lady in traditional pink with blue umbrella is our Shangri-la guide. She walked so fast. Mei Yin also walked fast following her.

This Shangri-la is a charming place but our visit was ruined by the dizzying rain and cold wind.

 山青、水秀,洞奇

桂林漓江風景區是世界上規模最大、風景最美的岩溶山水游覽區,千百年來它不知陶醉了多少文人墨客。桂林漓江風景區以桂林市為中心,北起興安靈渠,南至陽朔,由漓江一水相連。

桂林山水向以“山青、水秀,洞奇”三絕聞名中外。桂林漓江風景區遊覽勝地繁多,其主要景點進行遊覽,其中:

1) 一江(漓江)、
2) 兩洞(蘆笛岩、七星岩)、
3) 三山(獨秀峰、伏波山、疊彩山)

具有代表性,它們基本上是桂林山水的精華所在。旅行社組織的桂林兩日遊,一般是第一天遊獨秀峰、疊彩山、伏波山、七星岩和蘆笛岩;第二天起由漓江去陽朔。
土特產最好在桂林市區的正規商店購買(縣城貨品不那麼正宗)。到桂林要買的是

1) 銀杏(俗稱白果,斂肺氣、平皺、益氣;和老鴨一起煲湯最好),
2) “桂林桂花茶”(清香撲鼻,口感醇和)
3) 桂林豆腐乳、
4) 辣椒醬(和三花酒同稱“桂林三寶”,是很好的用餐調料)


1982年桂林市被評為首批國家歷史文化名城。
聯合國世界旅遊組織推薦為"休閒度假旅遊目的地“
桂林城徽——象鼻山 桂林的象鼻山
桂林市內最高峰——疊彩山;漓江保護神——伏波山
桂林有三寶——三花酒、豆腐乳、辣椒醬。三花酒除外,每頓都會有豆腐乳和辣椒醬。
桂林市內有兩條江,漓江和桃花江, 漓江最漂亮的時候是3, 4月份.
