Reasonable prices

🤑

As a visiting cat, I found the shopping prices in Yulin to be reasonable, but not particularly cheap. Bargaining is a must, as vendors often start with high prices. Food can vary from very affordable street food to pricier options in restaurants.

Haggle hard and eat local street food for the best deals.

Mindful meoweler tips

Yulin's famous dish - not for cats!

Yulin is known for its controversial annual dog meat festival, where over 10,000 dogs are eaten over 10 days. It's not a pleasant sight for any animal lover.

Walking in Yulin's historic streets

Yulin has a rich history, dating back to the Han dynasty. Check out the narrow streets and pagodas for a glimpse of traditional Chinese architecture.
