The South China Karst


These strange, almost mystical giant stone peaks in Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi Provinces represent an unrivalled natural treasure.

Every Karst in South China is unique. Spectacular rock formations of various colours and shapes, overhanging lakes and rivers, and dotted with caverns and natural bridges, the Karst create an atmosphere unique in the world.

Although Shilin, Wulong and Libo feature some of the most spectacular Karst formations, now inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, don’t miss the monumental and unfailingly romantic Karst located on the shores of the Lijiang River, between Guilin and Yangshuo.
