China has such magnificent and varied landscape. I would love to see it in person. For now? Maybe I will watch Crouching Tiger , Sleeping Dragon again, just for the landscape. Perhaps you have other movies to recommend?
Very cool. I love that both images have so much in common, in addition to the mountains -- the fluffy trees, the water running along the bottom, and even the tiny people in your image.
At first I thought the photo was the painting and the painting was the photo -- then I thought they were both paintings...! it really took a while for my brain to accept that the image on the right was photography!! :)
Good one, Terry. It made me look up the formation of karst mountains: https://theculturetrip.com/asia/china/articles/how-were-guilins-magical-mountains-formed/
Once again, terrific, Terry.
And I, too, Love Crouching Tiger..the scenery incredible!
Thank you.

That was my favorite. I loved the bamboo.
Such a wonderful virtual tour .
This reminds me of my first sight (virtually) of the Dolomites in Italy - so Disney-esque.
Thanks, Terry!
And thank you for taking the time to comment.
I felt the same way when I landed in Guilin. I marveled that the landscape was real!

Thanks for noticing. Some "opposables" work better than others, and some surprise me along the way.
As one who loves mountains, I found these two just wonderful. And a welcome testament to the mountains' reality.
Thanks. Live in Vermont, better love mountains.
Hard to believe those mountains exist. And your photo looks more like a painting than the painting!
The upside of a funky photo.

I think the poor technical quality of the photo helped that illusion.
