Guilin stands for “cassia forest”, a special tropical tree with yellow flowers that can be found here in abundance and which is what we “naive” Europeans refer to as  “cinnamon”.

Today we will post a few photos of the Guilin hills, natural wonders that seem broken from a typical Chinese engraving.
