Upon your arrival in Guangzhou

A brief introduction to Guangzhou
A majestic skyline, rich culture and tradition, and jaw-dropping scenes of nature await travellers to visit this bustling city in the Chinese Mainland.
Begin your trip with a visit to the unmissable Canton Tower, which is 600 metres tall and the highest TV tower in the world. While here, be sure to take in the mesmerising view of the cityscape and Pearl River. From here, venture on a historical journey through Guangzhou, with a few must-see destinations including Guangxiao Temple and the Temple of the Six Banyan Trees. We also recommend visiting the Sacred Hearts Cathedral as it was built in 1888 and remains one of the few cathedrals in the world to be crafted entirely from granite.
Food enthusiasts should head to Zhujiang New Town as it is brimming with a diverse selection of restaurants serving a wide range of cuisine. Be sure to order some of the local delicacies, such as ‘Har Gao’ (shrimp dumplings), ‘Kao Ru Zhu’ (roasted suckling pig), and egg tarts.
Those seeking the thrill of adventure should consider visiting Baiyun Mountain, which is approximately 20 minutes away from the city centre and can be explored on foot or by cable car. Take a peaceful stroll through visually striking gardens and shimmering ponds before heading to Moxing Ridge, which marks the highest point of Baiyun Mountain.
Guangzhou is the ideal starting point for a day trip as there are numerous destinations to pick from, including beautifully quaint Shamian Island, which is easily reached from Guangzhou in approximately 15 minutes. Boasting intriguing historical significance as a foreign trading port during the Song and Qing dynasties, there are plenty of memorable attractions to see, including many stunning Gothic and Baroque architecture.
