Things to do in Guangzhou:
1. Enjoy colonial views at Shamian Island - Shamian borders the Pearl River & is worth to visit both in the day & night for different but still breathtaking sceneries 🏛
2. Stroll along the Pearl river 珠江 & witness Guangzhou’s city scape at night 🌉
3. Join the locals for authentic cantonese dimsum 点心 breakfast 🥟 - I love their xiao long bao 小笼包, siew mai & hargao because they’re super generous with their filling & servings! 😋
4. Snack & shop at Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street amongst historical buildings that have been around for almost 100 years
5. Some food to try while at Shangxiajiu is Nan Sing Shuang Pi Nai 南信双皮奶(shown in pic), steamed clams & oysters topped with garlic & chilli, Ngan Gei Cheung Fun 银记肠粉店 (best chee cheong fun), Bao Hua Mian Dian 宝华面店 (best wonton mee)🍴
6. Stroll along the Central Business District area called Flower City Square 花城, home to some of Guangzhou prominent landmarks - Canton tower, Guangdong museum & Haixinsha
7. Guangdong Theatre - reminds me of Seoul’s Dongdaemun Design Plaza
8. Do some herbs shopping at Yi De Lu 一德路
9. There’s a stone made Sacred Heart Cathedral nearby with plenty of malls from Yi De Lu 一德路 to Haizhu Square 海珠广场 to shop for random things. No joke.
Not in photo but worth to visit:
🌟 Redtory Art & Design Factory - for art & photography lovers!
🌟 Zhongda Textiles Market - for every nifty enthusiast as there’s plenty of materials for a sewing project
🌟 Temple of the Six Banyan Trees - home to the biggest, most ancient Buddhist statues with 1,400 years of history
🌟 Ancestral Temple of the Chen Family
🌟 Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall
🌟 Museum of the Western Han Dynasty Mausoleum of the Nanyue King
How I wish I had more time because there’s just so much to see in this beautiful , happening city. Till my next visit! 💕✨ #guangzhou @ Guangzhou, China
