Ok thanks but it doesn't have to be nature oriented. an interesting small city/town with museums, local color, good food, few western tourists,, would suffice.

Thanks. I dont belong to WeChat yet. How do I use this code to create my WeChat basic account?. During registration, After I create password, it says to contact a current member and ask THEM to enter MY QR code or MY info to verify me. Very sorry for the trouble, I'm not a techie.

This verification system for new accounts seems to be a very recent thing (i.e. maybe a 2024 feature), but someone PMed me about it a few weeks ago with a QR code asking me to verify; I didn't see the PM until after the code expired (PM notifications don't work very well for me).

In any event, if you PM me a QR code, please let me know here and I'll scan it. I advise against posting your own QR code in the public forum.

Just PMed you my code. Hope I did it correctly. Thank you so much for your assistance.

It appears that you did send it correctly, but the code had already expired when I tried to scan it, so you probably need to generate a new one. If you resend, I'll scan again.

Apologies for the thread drift.

It's been around for a while. I had to find someone in 2021 to help me register. This seems to be mainly for WeChat (non-Chinese) accounts.

Guilin trip in two weeks
 
My son and I will fly to Guilin for three nights before the upcoming Spring Festival. Based on this thread, I changed my plan as follows: Day 1: Flight arrives in late afternoon; take a taxis to Sheraton Guilin Hotel; Day 2: Li River cruise and arrive in Yang Shuo in the early afternoon; Stay at Yang Shuo for two nights; Day 2-4 sightseeing plans are TBD. On Day 4, take either taxis or taxis/bus to airport. The question is when I should purchase the Li River cruise tickets. The second question is which sites should I visit within the time constraint. Thanks.
