[quote=CLARENCE ,29242]I have not been to Naigu, but I think Shilin is good enough. Yes, there are LOADS of people, but if you have about 4 hours of time to spend, it is a very good experience.I visited the place last week, and it's beautiful. It's expensive at 140RMB, and at the beginning, there are so many tourists, so many that we were actually commenting that there are more tourists than rocks hahaha.However, most of the tourists (package tours) hangs around the main entrance, the piece of rock with the words 'SHILIN' and the sword lake.I would advise you interested people to just go there and take a look and snap as many pictures as possible (there will definitely be people in your photos though...). After this, around the sword lake, there is a path that you can climb to get to the top of one of the rocks, but be careful though, cos the rocks are smooth.After that, if you actually manage to climb to the top, you can also venture from that lake to this place where we find total quietness and we can overlook the majority of SHIlIN, very beautiful. However, I cannot describe the path to this high point cos we sort of stumble onto this point.Then you can slowly make your way to the 10000 years old Lingzi-lookalike rock structure, which is about an hours walk to and fro. On your way to this formation, you will past by padi fields and huge amounts of i-dunno-what droppings on the ground. The trek is nice though.[/quote]
