Focus on Guilin

The term shanshui (mountain and water) is about natural landscapes but has broader cultural meanings, often referring to a spiritual destination where people can find peace and the true meaning of life. Infinite Shanshui, an exhibition running at the Kuei-lin Art Festival, visualizes the splendor of nature combined with art to give people a well-deserved respite. The outdoor exhibition, running through Dec 25 in Guilin, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, shows dozens of public artworks in an expensive, poetic environment consisting of meadows and lakes, against a backdrop of mountain ranges and a distinguished karst topology. The festival adds an artistic dimension to the cityscape of Guilin, already known for its mountain and water scenery and hailed as "the best under heaven" in a Chinese expression.
