In order to reach Lijiang in Yunnan we needed to do a few stops, which were Guilin and Kunming. Guilin is famous for the Elephant Hill (for which the price to get a view was crazy and we refused to see it) and the Sun and Moon towers, where landscape can be admired for free, but there’s a price to get in.

After that we went to Kunming just for the day as well. Our intention was to enjoy the Green Lake part and a few more temples. Sadly, the Green Lake park was pretty ugly as the lakes had been dried out and there was barely a few nice spots in the park. After that we went to a temple near by and spent a nice time resting from our heavy backpacks.

Para poder acceder a Lijiang, Yunnan, tuvimos que hacer dos paradas, una en Guilin y la otra en Kunming. Guilin es famosa por la Elephant Hill (cuya entrada para poder tener una buena vista era carísima y nos negamos a pagar) y las Sun and Moon towers, que pueden ser vistas gratis pero hay que pagar si se quiere subir.

Después de Guilin fuimos a Kunming, donde nuestra idea era disfrutar del Green Lake y algunos templos. Por desgracia, el parque en cuestión estaba seco y los lagos son lo que lo hace especialmente bonito, así que a penas tuvimos algunas buenas vistas. Después de eso, fuimos a un templo precioso cerca del parque y descansamos nuestras espaldas de las pesadas mochilas que llevamos a cuestas.
