Dear Alex,
I strongly recommend Guilin's landscape to you. Yours, Guilin is in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, famous for its beautiful mountains and clean water. The most special things are the strange-shaped mountains and the clear Lijiang River. The water is so clear that you can see the fish swimming. Also, the mountains look like different animals from different angles, which is really amazing.
For fun, you can take a bamboo-raft ride down the Lijiang River to enjoy the views. You can also hike up the mountains for a bird's-eye view. I'm sure you'll have a great time here.
Yours,
Zhang Ming
