Dear David，
I hope this email finds you well.I’m excited to hear that you’re planning
to visit China！
I want to recommend Guilin， a great city in southern
China.The natural beauty there is beyond words.I guess you will make it as a
dream place.
The Li River is a must－see.As you take a cruise along it， you can see unique karst mountains on both sides.They stand in different shapes， some like swords pointing to the sky.Tourists enjoy taking photos of the breathtaking views and feel the gentle river breeze.Another amazing spot is the Elephant Trunk Hill.It looks exactly like an elephant stretching its trunk to drink water.People love climbing the hill and exploring the caves inside.
Yours，
Li Hua
Guilin is also famous for its delicious rice noodles.The fresh noodles with
special soup and various toppings taste great.
I really hope you can visit Guilin soon.I’m looking forward to experiencing its beauty and tasting the yummy food with you！
