Destination Ideas after visiting Guilin Yangshou

My wife and I are traveling to Yangshou in early July---we expect to stay in Yangshou for 3 nights---and will have another 6 nights to explore SE China before we fly out of HK INTL on July 16th at 1PM
What destination suggestions do you have for those 6 days?

Thanks, KD

For the six days, one day can be just used for wandering around the Guilin city.
Then you can go to the Beihai City and go to the Weizhou Island near Beihai and for these places, you can stay for about three to four days.
The Detian Waterfall is worth seeing if time is possible.

When your in Yangshou, you must attend the show at the lake! The production was the one of the BEST! Buy the dvd/ books package for your coffee table at home. They also perform in Yunnan. The Li river boat ride is beautiful. The lakes boat ride in Guilin was breathtaking and then walk the paths near the water ways. Fantastic food to enjoy. Take 2 days and take the bus ride N of Guilin to the hot springs to be pampered! Stay in one of the wood hotels near the main springs. Buy your ticket for the main spring inside the big hotel! relax, relax, relax!
While in Beihai, walk near the fishing docks and watch the men pound the spikes into the timber sides of the ships. Walk downtown in the old city st... Love the seafood, eat overlooking the bay after enjoying the beach park and the downtown water park. Take the bike ride and see the sites... For a nice night of sleep stay at Trumps hotel.
Visit the falls between Cn/ VN then, go into the caves and see their beauty. With the remaining time visit Nanning... good food/ entertainment expats to chat with!
3 years traveling in China of 10 years married and so, much more to see!
The people are fantastic and it's the best kept secret from many people! Where ever you go enjoy the food, be ready to take photos with a pocket full of SD cards! Many understand english and others will talk to you... :) have a great time talking with your hands and many will call others to talk to you in english. The chinese wine is powerful like moon shine and so good! Be careful if you try to match the locals drinking, they will win, m or f ! To end your adventure in HKG spend your last night out dinning and playing in the night life... you can sleep on the plane returning home! Supermarkets are plentiful so, don't worry yourself... Take wal mart, low $, brand pills to stop the runs. Boil the water before drinking it from the tap or enjoy bottle water. Bank of China will exchange you usd to rmb you need to have a photo copy of your passport. enjoy

LOL!
I forgot to say something very important... most of the WC/ bathrooms do not have toilet paper!
Carry your own paper, napkins, baby towels, or whatever you think you may needs while on the road!
The supermarkets will have those items!
Most of the time, a long bus ride will stop for gas ~ 1/2 way, the riders will hace a wc break.
On a train ride spend the extra for the sleeper... the stand up/ sit down will be packed. Winter time the sleeper has the heat!
Not sure if I'll be back in Nanning this summer or not... :) If so, I'll be in peoples park during the AM watching my wife playing TJ.
