The post office is located on Pantao Lu directly in front of West Street.
Here you can get stamps for post cards (4.2 Yuan) and letters. You can also post back some of the souvenirs you have purchased in Yangshuo or China. The trick is not to pack the items yourself, because the staff at the post office need to inspect the items to make sure there are no antiques or dangerous goods being posted. The staff in this post office are very accustomed to posting items overseas and are very efficient.
Opening hours: 08:00-21:00
The main hospital in Yangshuo is The People's Hospital of Yangshuo County. It is located on Shenshan Road about a 10 minute walk from West Street. Some of the staff speak some English so you are better to come here with a local friend.
Dr. Lily- IF you are feeling ill and want to speak to an English speaking Doctor, then ask for Dr. Lily. The best recommendation we can give you is that she is the one all the local expats visit. She is very good at diagnosis and recommends a mix of western and traditional Chinese medice. She is also very good for massages and acupancture
