我觉得,可以。

(Wo juede, keyi / I think, yes, you can.)

也可以不可以说:”我真要去中国的。“ ?

(Ye keyi bu keyi shuo: "wo zhen yao qu zhongguo de."? /

Is it also possible to say: "..."?)

In your case (哪里) - because of the special rule mentioned above - the spoken language changes the tones to: nálǐ, but in written Pinyin it is still used as following: nǎlǐ.

You have Guilin in your supplementary vocab... Guilin is nice, especially the rice-terraces near Longsheng (龙脊梯田 - Longji titian), but I think you have seen the most interesting places in 2 or 3 days. It is much more impressing to go 65 kilometers south. There is a smaller city in the countryside, called Yangshuo (阳朔), and it is even nicer. You can spend more than a week there with hiking around, do some trips on a bike or take a riverboat cruise or maybe a bamboo rafting tour on one of the two rivers nearby. It is a paradise, if you are interested in climbing, but don't try to go there during the summer for this sports.... It's way too hot! I really can recommend this region for people, who want to experience a countryside and natural, but also touristic region.
