Ma'an Shan (Horse Saddle Mountain)
myspices Says: Ma'an Shan or the Horse Saddle Mountain is just next to YuFeng Shan in YuFeng Gongyuan. We did not climb up this mountain as the view from this mountain will be the same as from YuFeng Shan. There's a little pavilion ontop of Ma'an Shan which you can get to it by sitting the...

myspices Says: On the way up YuFeng Shan, you will pass by a cave called the Sanjie Rock Cave, where lots of nice figurines on the story of Liu Sanjie - the movie that epitomised the love story of a songbird, Liu Sanjie and Ah Niu, which is so popular among the Chinese. At the entrance,...
YuFeng Shan - Fish Peak Mountain
myspices Says: YuFeng Shan or the the Fish Peak Mountain is located inside YuFeng Gongyuan (Fish Peak Park). I would think it more like a hill than a mountain as it's not really high. The name "fish" is given to it, is because the "hill" looks like an "upright fish". Though the mountain is...

myspices Says: Don't worry about dirty shoes - you can get them shine along the pathways or walkways in Liuzhou. Simple shoe box containing of shoe shine, brushes and cloth - does the job. It is usually the ladies who shoe shine for you. All you need to do is to sit on the wooden stool and...

myspices Says: Well, not really a lover of dogs or the cats but somehow to try this specialty of doggie meat ...errrr..is not my idea of blending into the local customs. There are so many of these doggie meat shops along the streets, especially at night. Most of the shops will be crowded -...
myspices Says: When going up YuFeng Shan during peak season ie weekends and eve of holidays, be extra careful on the steps. The stone steps are nicely done but some are slippery (after the rain) and lots of people going up and down the steps may cause you to miss a step and slipped. Also...
myspices Says: Lots of hawkers and pedlars carrying poles with 2 baskets of their goods at each end of the pole to be sold along the streets of Liuzhou. Most of the time, they sell fruits and nuts. They will usually have a small weighing balance with them as most the fruits are usually...
myspices Says: It does not matter how many wheels you have .... two wheels, three wheels or more.... the load has to be transported. Incredible huge loads are moved here and there by all means of transports. Lots of 2 wheelers and 3 wheelers are used to carry heavy and bulky stufff - a...
myspices Says: If you love bananas, Liuzhou has the cheapest bananas. It comes in katis and 1yuan of it is enough to make you full! Sold usually in pushcarts along streets. The bananas here are fresh and sweet in taste.
myspices Says: I love corn but the corn sold here is slightly different. It's not reallly soft and juicy but more like glutinous in taste and you need to chew it real well as it's hard. The colour of the grains is of a pale white/cream. Some come in a mixture of colours of white dotted...
Maple syrup sweets - "Ting-ting" sweets
myspices Says: These sweeties are usually sold in pushcarts. It's a huge piece of maple syrup sweet with sesame sprinkled on it. The vendor will use a flat "chisel" and a small "hammer" to chip off pieces from the big "pastry" of sweet and thus making the sound "ting..ting..ting.." The...
