4 things to do in Guangzhou
[ 0 ]Guangzhou has a rich culture and history that lies beneath the infinite skyline of skyscrapers, we suggest:
- Taking a walk at Yuexiu Park, where the Statue of the Five Rams and Zhenhai Tower reside. The statue, built in 1959, is the emblem of Guangzhou city, while the 28-metre high tower was first built in 1380 to protect the city from pirates.
- Take a night cruise down the Pearl River. The busy Guangzhou nightlife is just beyond the riverbanks, and the waters capture and reflect the magnificent lights of Guangzhou city at night.
- Digging into some Cantonese cuisine, which the city is renowned for. Roast Suckling Pig, Dim Sum or Wanton Noodles - it's your choice!
- Shop at street markets such as Qingping market, Flower Street and Jade Street, which are great places to find good bargains, exotic foods, herbs, snacks as well as arts and crafts.
