A commemorative postcard on 2008 Olympic Games Touch Relay in Guilin (桂林) on 6.6.2008. Although the date was schedule on 4.6.2009, it was delay due to national day of mourning the victims of 2008 Sichuan Earthquake. A red colored square box was stamped on the bottom for the update. It shows the river scenery of Lijiang River (灕江) near Guilin, with a traditional water transport. Thanks semper_fi.
