Best Time To Visit
The best time to visit Guilin would be summer and autumn, which means from July to October. In Guilin, the temperature will not get too high during summertime and it is also the best time to enjoy the greenery and the clear rivers. Try to avoid Chinese public holidays such as between October 1st and 7th, during which the city could be flooded by local tourists.

    Internet Access and VPN in China

    Internet Access and VPN in China

    Due to the Internet policy of China, certain websites and applications are not accessible from the mainland, which includes those very commonly used in the west (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Google, Skype and more). Some travellers have been able to gain access to those via a VPN service (installed prior to arrival in China). Make sure you comply with local laws and regulations when deciding on whether or not to employ a VPN, and which one to choose (if you do, only use those explicitly allowed by the Chinese government, and only use them for authorised purposes to avoid any trouble). There have been reports of foreigners in China getting their cell service cut off in response to unauthorised use of VPN being detected; restoring cell service required a trip to the local police station where contents of the device were investigated and certain apps removed. Giving that Google is banned in China, Google Maps might not be the most accurate and reliable source of information. Some local apps such as Baidu Maps and AutoNavi tend to work better than Google Maps.
