Li River Craftsman Village, Guilin

The ancient village is incredible! The location was incredible, the village was stunning, and the people were incredibly kind. We arrived in June (very warm and rainy) the tourist numbers were low. Very few people meant we had the place to ourselves. It was extremely peaceful on the river. I would recommend this location to anyone!

Dong Li Gu Cun was the most wonderful experience we had in China, with comfortable rooms and delicious meals. The staff is highly receptive and warm, with very good tips for the trip, and attention to details. We felt in heaven, in a awesome scenic area, with the true Chinese spirit. There are many options of activities throughout the village, from craftsmanship of chopsticks, porcelain, preparation of traditional food and beverages and much more. There are also many activities for children. Special thanks to Xia, Kay and Chen, for the cultural immersion and special attention, since we were the sole foreigners in the village. We highly recommend the Li River Craftsmen in the Spring Festival if you want to have a traditional experience, and we regret to spend only 4 days there, because we would like to stay at least a whole week. We intend to return in the near future.
