Yulong River, which can be explained as “meeting the dragon” in Chinese, is located in Yulong Village in Yangshuo Guilin. The clean river that reflected the green hills and farm fields along the river bands is an ideal place for people to experience bamboo rafting.

 

The landmark Yulong Bridge is the scene for film “Liu Sanjie” who is regarded as the best folk singer in Guangxi Province. There are lots of hills along the river and locals prefer to give them names according to their shapes. When we were on the bamboo raft, boatman pointed out these interesting hills such as the Lion Hill, the Frog Hill, the Snail Hill, etc.

The calm Yulong River is a fairy land for people to get rid of the noisy daily life and embrace the original nature. The breeze pats your face gently, the cool water washes your feet quietly, the fresh air fills your lungs, and the locals entertain your hospitably. New couples like to take their wedding photos here, foreign tourists like to spend leisure time here, and even the CCTV organization prefers to choose here for their short introduction film. During the rafting time, tourists also have a chance to see the Cormorant Fishing Show.
