Zhaoqing is located in the west Pearl River Delta on the north shores
of the Xi River and is 110km (68 miles) from Guangzhou. It has population
of 5.4 million and covers an area of 22,300 sq km.
Visitors have been coming to Zhaoqing for over 1,000 years, drawn
in part by the limestone peaks at Seven Star Crags and the Dinghu
Shan mountain range. These scenic areas are refreshing destinations
in fast moving Guangdong. If time is limited, they are a good way
to see a natural smaller scale versions of the classic karst scenery
of Guilin. Zhaoqing itself is a thriving modern city but among its
new streets and shops you can find old city walls, which are over
800 years old and a few interesting restored temples.
