China Tour May 13 - 16, 2017

The next day we were off to Guilin via a high speed train. The landscape was beautiful as we sped by at 150 miles per hour!
Upon our arrival to Guanzhou we drove south by the Guangzhou Circle, one of the most interesting buildings I have ever seen.
We continued on to the Chen Family temple for a tour. It had beautiful handcarved artwork everywhere.
To maintain the beauty of the carvings everything at the temple is painted every five years on a rotating basis.

The next morning we went to Macau for a tour of the city. I must say we at this point in our trip we were getting tired, our brains were on overload. Macau is a mini Las Vegas. The casinos are the same buildings as those in Los Vegas but just smaller in scale. Really no photos were taken.

Hong Kong was built between water and steep hills and so the only place to go is UP.

 The view out our hotel window.
 
After a rainy day in Hong Kong our tour of China came to an end. The next morning we caught an early morning flight to Tokyo and then home to the USA.
We'd crisscrossed China in twenty one days and had a fabulous time and I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
