[quote=BARONTWANGLE,271715]I just thought of a good place to visit while in Guilin.  Take the bus to a place called Daxu (Dar Shoo) and visit the ancient area.  There's not much walking to do, and it is like going back in time about 1000 years (if you avoid the souvenir sellers!).  I can't remember the exact place where you catch the bus from, but it is a square close to the University.  The bus will leave when it is full!  Ask the driver or ticket person to tell you when to get off, as it won't be obvious.  You then walk under a bridge, and follow your nose.  There is one ancient street which is very interesting, especially if you turn left onto it, and keep walking over the bridge.  I think souvenir sellers are banned from that part, as they never seem to go down there.  Check out the right half too however.

All in all, you will want a couple of hours to explore the streets, and will take about 45 mins each way on the bus.  You might have to wait up to 30 minutes for the bus to get there, but there seem to be many going back the other way.

Hope it proves a good suggestion.
