The history of Guilin dates back more than 2000 years, to the first century B.C. when the city was established on the banks of the Kuei River. A couple of hundred years earlier, the construction of the Ling Canal made it possible for water transportation between the Xi River and the Tangzi River

Guilin is listed as a state-level historical and cultural city. There are scheduled flights to major cities in China and to Japan and the countries of Southeast Asia. So we decided to take a walk around local temples and pogodas.

One of them was located in the Elephant hill mountain and this is so the temple Nr.1 from where we start our expedition.
