This is Yangshuo, a town in southern China, known for its dramatic mountain landscape and outdoor recreation. . . These bamboo rafts sell all sorts of things on the Li River as you pass picturesque countryside views. . . I was struck by this image posted by @tinyatlasquarterly but the more I looked at it and read about the area, the more I realized I was looking at the down side of tourism. . . Like all aspects of life if the pendulum swings too far, what once was a bonus becomes a curse. . . #overtourism #tourismoverload #yangshuo #travelchina #tmtraveltipschina #paradoxoftourism #findingthebalance (at Yangshuo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp8lquxH35o/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hs0gowbehu4k
