The scenery along both rivers is superb, and a traveler of the Ming Dynasty Xu Xiake (1586-1641) described it as “the land of green lotus and jade-color bamboo shoots.” Famous scenic spots in Yangshuo are numerous such as West Street, Moon Hill, Ancient Banyan Tree, Yulong River, Fuli and Xingping Town.
