The nearby towns of Longsheng and Sanjiang and Yangshuo are also good options for an extended tour. It is always exhilarating to experience the unique terraces, houses, drum towers, wind & rain bridges and local customs of the minorities in these places. Yangshuo, at the termination of the Li River cruise, is also the most brilliant part of it. Its West Street is a cross-cultural street where western authentic coffee and restaurants and Chinese tea and antiques are in harmony.
