The drizzling can make sightseeing difficult and dreary at times. As long as you prepare for it, you'll be fine: don't forget to bring with an umbrella.
In March you can enjoy the dreamily beautiful Li River when cruising from Guilin country suburban to YangshuoTown, take a bamboo raft on the Yulong River, and discover the idylic beauty by cycling along the countryside road (there will be vast lemon rape flowers among the rivers and mountains).
