In this post, I'm sharing the top spots for the perfect trip to Guangzhou—a secret French atmosphere, magical coffee, and wow-worthy panoramas await you! 😍🌇 TOP 4 PLACES TO VISIT IN GUANGZHOU 1. Sha Mian French Concession (No. 53-54, Shabei North Street, Liwan District, always open)—a unique place with colonial architecture, wide alleys, and picturesque views. Be sure to stroll around and soak up the vibes of old Europe in the middle of China! 2. Starbucks on Sha Mian (ShaMian Main Street 50-52)—this place will remind you of the Harry Potter universe! The interior is atmospheric: arches, wood, and intricate details. Great for photos and a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. 3. Canton Tower—buy tickets in advance on trip.com and don't miss the view of the city at night. The top offers a great view of the river and the modern city. 4. Baiyun Mountain – for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Perfect for a morning hike, it offers incredible views. You can ascend either on foot or by bus/ski lift. China's largest zipline is located here. Don't miss it for extreme sports enthusiasts 🔥 ❓Where to stay? I recommend the One&One International Hotel Apartment (1st floor, Jiedeng Duhui Building, No. 70 Zhongshan 5th Road). Pros: located right in the mall (shopping and food courts), a 2-minute walk from the metro – super convenient for getting around the city! 😉 How to get there: The Guangzhou metro is clean, logical, and inexpensive; Sha Mian and Canton Tower are right next to the stations. What else to know? UnionPay cards are accepted everywhere, and Wi-Fi is available in all cafes.

📞Hello Hello, can you hear me? Please respond. Baiyun Mountain is a natural tourist attraction in Guangzhou, conveniently located not far from the city center and accessible by metro. There are four entrances to the mountain, with the southern entrance being the most popular. However, if you wish to take the cable car, you should enter through the east gate. From the southern entrance, an electric tram can take you to the River Stone Viewing Point. This area also features shops, a cable car station, and a tram station that leads to the summit of Moxingling Peak. The distance to the peak is 2 kilometers with steep paths, so taking the tram is recommended. Note that the tram does not stop midway if you change your mind. From the summit tram stop, there is an additional walking path to the top, which requires a 5-yuan entrance fee. You can also opt for an escalator to avoid the climb. The cable car or tram ride from the first station to the River Viewing Point costs 20 yuan, and from the viewing point to the summit, it costs 10 yuan. All prices are for one-way trips. At the top, you can enjoy panoramic views, cooler air compared to the base, and a refreshing breeze. The entire route is scenic and conveniently accessible via cable car or tram. Entrance fee: 5 yuan 🎈https://maps.app.goo.gl/tGpZu54rsznE31FC9

Guangzhou is a city suitable for city walk! But first, let's start with taking the escalator up to a hill!! Day 1: Have breakfast at one of the famous Wanton Noodles Stores. I recommend 竹园竹升面 for their springy noodles or 吴财记面家 for the exceptional fried wonton! Then take a stroll at ShaMian Island. Proceed to BaiYun Mountain via metro. Climb to the peak with the help of escalator! For dinner, head to any walking street and munch on Chinese street food! Day 2: Make a reservation with one of the many hanfu stores and transform into a princess of different dynasty. It would take about half a day. The usual will bring you to 永庆坊, but you may find some other places that will bring you to a spot that you wouldn't imagine! For dinner, try the crab rice/noodle specialty! Day 3: Have DimSum for breakfast and head to Beijing road walking street. Visit the famous temple that is said to inspire one of Hayao Miyazaki's anime. Visit 永庆坊 if you didn't. [Tips] - Guangzhou is a place very suitable for city walk, bring comfortable shoes. - Weather in Guangzhou is unpredictable, bring umbrella and shoes cover. #guangzhouguide #myitinerary

Shangyu District spotlight: come for the serene landscapes, stay for epic views atop Baiyun Mountain 🌄. The mountain is the most famous attraction here, blending hiking vibes with panoramic scenery for both nature lovers and casual walkers. Must-See Place: 🗻 Baiyun Mountain (白云山): This spot is the crown of Shangyu, with trails winding through lush greens and misty peaks. The entrance is at Baiyun Road, with main access usually open 7am–5pm. Tip: Start your hike early for cooler weather and less crowded paths—it gets pretty busy on weekends! Practical tip from my own visit: Bring water and some snacks (there are limited vendors on the mountain itself). Local buses or cabs are the best way to reach the base—no metro stops nearby, just hop on Shangyu’s local bus lines or a Didi cab. Getting Around: The Shangyu bus system is solid for quick hops between downtown and Baiyun Mountain, and Didi rideshare works well if you’re pressed for time or want door-to-mountain convenience. Where to eat: When you’re done hiking, refuel at a local Shangyu noodle shop near Baiyun Road—ask for “Shangyu-style noodles” for real flavor, and a cold soy milk drink if you’re sweaty. Destination tips: No visa tricks needed if you’re already in China. Most places take mobile payment (WeChat Pay/Alipay), but bring some cash if you plan to buy snacks near the mountain. Layer up—mountain weather changes fast (could be sunny then rainy!). #ShangyuViews #BaiyunMountain #ChinaTravel #HikingChina #tripdotcom

My recent multi-city adventure took me from energetic Shangyu District, bustling Guangzhou, and historic Zhongshan. The absolute highlights: walking Guangzhou’s iconic Beijing Road and exploring revolutionary history at The Museum of The Former Residence of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen. 🏛️ Top Spots to Visit: - Beijing Road, Guangzhou: This pedestrian street is packed with local shops, neon lights, and layer-upon-layer of ancient road tiles beneath your feet. It’s an epic blend of old and new. Tip: Go in the evening when the street food stalls are out—look for grilled oysters or stinky tofu if you want to try something bold. - The Museum of The Former Residence of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, Zhongshan: Address: No. 93, Cuiheng Avenue, Nanlang Town, Zhongshan City (Open 9:00–17:30 weekdays, 9:00–18:00 weekends – last entry 30 mins before close). You’ll walk through Sun Yat-Sen’s old home, see period artifacts, and get a genuine hit of Chinese modern history. Travel Hacks: - Getting Around: In Guangzhou, the metro is fast, cheap, and covers almost everywhere (use QR code payment for convenience). Zhongshan is best navigated by local taxis or rideshare—have the museum address in Chinese ready to show drivers. - Food Stuff: Beijing Road is street food heaven, but don’t skip a dim sum breakfast at a local teahouse for savory buns and tea—ask locals for “cha lau” recommendations. - General Tips: Weather in Guangzhou and Zhongshan tends to be warm and humid, so dress light! Ticket payments are mostly digital; WeChat Pay and Alipay are best. No visa on arrival for China—sort yours in advance. #ChinaAdventure #SydneyToZhongshan #GuangzhouEats #Tripcom #SunYatSenHistory

If you catch the weather flipping from sunny ⛅ to rainy ☔, don’t even worry—the misty clouds give the mountain this enchanted, mysterious look that’s just as clutch for dreamy photos. Getting Here & Around: Just grab a taxi from downtown Guangzhou or zap over with a local ride-hailing app to Baiyun Mountain’s main gate. Weekend parking can get packed (hunt for the iconic white van under the tree shade and those red-white roadblocks if you’re driving). Legit hiking is the main move, so rock comfy trainers and throw some rain gear in your bag, just in case. Internal shuttles are around if you wanna skip some stair action on the uphill. Food: Snacks are life! Pack a stash or hit up the local food stalls at the base and summit for classic Guangzhou munchies—think dim sum and sweet tofu pudding. If you want a sit-down meal, the Baiyun District is loaded with noodle joints, dumpling stops, and cozy tea shops. Extra Tips: The best part? No ticket needed for Baiyun Mountain itself! But keep cash handy because the zipline ride has a charge and most snack stalls are cash-only. Pro tip: Weather here can throw you a curveball—sunny in the morning, clouds rolling in after lunch. Snap those photos, live the rush, and don’t forget your selfie stick! This adventure is elite. GuangzhouAdventure BaiyunMountain ZiplineFun NatureEscape #travel #zipline

It’s perfect for photos and feels very cozy! 📅Day 3: Slow down and encounter the poetic ice and snow of Baiyun Lake Finally, you can sleep in naturally. When you open the curtains, you are immediately dazzled by the beauty—snowflakes slowly drifting outside, landing on eaves and grass, and the whole world is quiet. After a leisurely breakfast, take a stroll to Baiyun Lake. The lake surface is covered with a thin layer of ice, snowflakes fall on the ice, and mist drifts around the trees by the lake, like stepping into a secret realm from a fantasy drama. Every photo you take is atmospheric and cinematic. After enjoying this winter beauty, you’ll be full of memories and reluctantly start your journey back. 💡Little bonus: The hotel lobby has a cozy fireplace. In the evening, sit around the fire with friends, brew a pot of hot tea, roast some sweet potatoes, chat, and watch the snow outside the window. This is what winter should be like!

If you've been to Yunwu Mountain in Baiyun District, you really keep quiet! Rushing and scrambling, Yunwu Mountain, one of Guiyang's Ten Peaks, is absolutely amazing, full of greenery, with a high forest coverage rate. The whole hike is filled with fresh negative oxygen ions, ending with a stunning sunset to conclude the trip. Both beginners and advanced hikers can find suitable routes here～ 🗺️ 3 routes (choose as needed, no risk of mistakes): ▪️ Beginner-friendly: Round trip from Baiyan Village｜Low difficulty, soil moisture provides good traction, only two slightly steep downhill sections on the return, easy and stress-free all the way, 2-3 hours with stops for photos. ▪️ Advanced option: From Shilong Village to Baiyan Village｜9km, about 4 hours, 455m elevation gain, crossing 4-5 mountain peaks, some sections require using hands and feet, the downhill is very steep and slippery, easy to fall, not recommended. ❤️ Balanced route: Enter from Shilong Village, exit at Baiyan Village｜First climb to the reservoir to enjoy lake and mountain views, then cross mountain peaks to the summit, easy downhill that doesn’t strain your legs. Tested as the most comfortable route👍 but still challenging, the uphill requires hands and feet, heart rate spikes, a strong aerobic + adventure experience. 📍 Navigation: Shilong Village Committee, with parking lot, about 1 hour from Guiyang city center. 🚗 Practical Tips: • Gear: Non-slip hiking shoes are a must (some sections are slippery), bring a windbreaker for the windy summit, trekking poles save half the effort, you may need to use hands and feet, gloves are essential. • Save the "Two Steps" offline map on your phone (look for ribbons tied to trees at forks). My route is attached on p2. • Supplies: No shops along the way! Bring 2L water + energy bars/nuts, have a meal in Baiyun District after descending, such as Zhou Jin’s hometown specialty hotpot, Luosi Chicken Manor local dishes, Haoweijia Baiyun District’s first specialty Doumi hotpot… ⚠️ Pitfall warnings: • Camping and smoking are prohibited! There’s a lot of trash on the summit😠, remember to bring a trash bag, everyone is responsible for protecting the environment. • Don’t rush on rainy days! Mountain paths are slippery and risky, best on sunny or cloudy days. • No public toilets along the route, prepare well before departure in the village.
