http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/29660 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/29660 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13408 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13408 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8196
Four Streets of hotels, bars, restaurants and budget travel agents.

An excellent, clean, air-conditioned room (with shower) cost me CNY 60 (GBP 4) per night. Beer is CNY 6 a pint! Internet use is free all over town in bars and hotels.

You can get an English breakfast and yes a sandwich. I was caught staring at one for too long because I have been away for a long time. I just about got away with it as the shopkeeper spoke good English.

You can also revamp your traveller's wardrobe as the shops offer clothes in Western sizes and most people speak good English here.

Come here by tourist boat (CNY 400) or bus (CNY 20.) Stay here and not Guilin as it is much cheaper (see above.)]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8196
