Yu Long River

Yulong River

This tributary of the Li River is much smaller, but has some spectacular scenery of its own. Most tourist traffic on this river is on small bamboo rafts. The going price for a trip on these rafts is about 150 Yuan per raft.

Swimming is also a popular activity on this river. There are several swimming holes on the river. Swimming here is safer than on the Li River as there is a smaller current and it is not as deep.

Several bike rides and hikes also follow the Yu long river taking in local villages and rice paddies. These can be some of the most memorable days on your China experience.
