Any other places out of Guilin area? If you only want to stay in Guilin area, I suggest you go to Yangshuo by ship or bamboo raft. You are ameateur photographer, so do not miss Longsheng(Dragon Back Terraces). There are other options: Guilin (elephent Trunk Hill, Li River), Yangshuo (Xingping Old Town, YUlong River, Impression of Liu Sanjie), Lipu (Yanzi Cave). Well, Novermber is not the best time to take picture of Dragon Back Terraces, for the golden paddy has been reaped, only stubble in the field. However, that is really a popular place favored by photographer.
