September 3 - 8, 2015 at Guilin China

1. Minhang Hotel (Cilvil Aviation Hotel) close to GL Railway Station is recommended. It has a good location. The facilties and service are satisfied. The breakfast is offered as well.
2. For your 6 days tour, I would recommend GL (Li River cruise and the attractions along the journey, Seven-Star Park and Reed Flute Cave), Yangshuo (West Street and Impression Sanjie Liu ) and Longsheng to you. For such a long trip, it would be best to have a tour agency help.
3. Travel China Guide is a good choice. They arrange great travels in these areas. Here is their contact for your reference:

4. Zhengyang Road Pedestrian and Shangshui Street are fine choices to taste local snacks.
5. In the daytime, you can go shopping at Zhengyang Road Pedestrian, International Tourist Items Wholesale Market, Weixiaotang Mansion and Department Store at Middle Zhongshan Road. At night, the Xiangshan Night Market is highly recommended.
