Floods that have swept through our beloved home of Yangshuo have been described by locals and expats alike as the biggest that they have ever seen, with many older residents saying Yangshuo has not seen anything like this in over 100 years. 
The floods occurred just as Yangshuo, which attracts millions of local and foreign tourists every year was just kicking into season, with expat favourites such as The Brew, Ganga, and The DMZ Bar being totally submerged.
Now that the water has subsided the cleanup effort begins, but with the damage so severe and many places still lacking electricity it is likely to be weeks before anything vaguely resembling normality is achieved.
