Discover Guilin
Guilin, situated at the northeastern part of Guangxi, covers an area of 27,800 square kilometers, composed of 17 counties (cities, districts) with a total population of 5.4 million people.
Guilin governs six districts, ten counties, and one county-level city — Haishu district, Xiufeng district, Diecai district, Xiangshan district, Qixing district, Yanshan district, Lingui district, Yangshuo county, Lingchuan county, Quanzhou county, Xing'an county, Yongfu county, Guanyang county, Longsheng county, Ziyuan county, Pingle county, Gongcheng county, and Lipu city.
The distinctive karst landscapes of Guilin in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, particularly its unusual mountains, fascinated preeminent modern painters like Liu Haisu (1896-1994) and Wu Guanzhong (1919-2010).
