Guilin A Beautiful City in China
In China, theres a saying that The landscape of Guilin tops that of any other place under heaven. In light of this, I will recommend Guilin as the first destination of my foreign friends trip to China.
Overlooking the Li Jiang River, Guilin is located in the northeast of Guangxi. The name was derived from the cassia trees of the location. The trees line the streets of the town with yellow flowers blossoming every September, filling the air with sweet scent.
Guilin is a place of breath-taking scenery. From ancient times, Guilin has been noted for its elegant landscape. It features beautiful mountains, clear rivers, grotesque rocks and mystic crags, which is a feast for the eyes. Sitting on a bamboo raft drifting down the river, visitors can see the varied shapes of the pinnacles reflected in the water. They will feel as if they were in a scroll of Chinese landscape painting.
I believe that my foreign friend will marvel at the unparalleled beauty of Guilin.
桂林是个中国的美丽的城市
在中国，有一种说法：景观桂林的顶端，其他任何地方的天下。鉴于此，我推荐桂林作为我的外国朋友的中国之行的第一站。
俯瞰漓江，桂林位于广西东北部。这个名字是由位置的肉桂树。树线和黄色的花朵朵每年九月的城镇街道上，甜的香味弥漫。
桂林是一个令人叹为观止的美景的地方。自古以来，桂林一直以其优雅的景观闻名。它的特点是美丽的山，清澈的河流，怪石和神秘的峭壁，这是眼睛的盛宴。坐在竹筏上顺水漂流，游客可以看到不同形状的尖峰石阵在水中的倒影。他们会觉得自己是在一幅中国山水画。
我相信我的外国朋友会惊叹于桂林的无与伦比的美丽。
