Stop and smell the flowers 🌸
Zhujiang Park is an absolutely stunning park located in the heart of the city of Guangzhou. It might seem surprising to find such a tranquil and pretty park among all the hustle and bustle of TianHe District.
The park is open from 6:00am till 10pm (Monday to Sunday)
Why come to the park? Zhujiang Park is filled with beautiful big trees, impressive flowers gardens, small waterfalls, easy to navigate walking paths, water features, small lakes and so much more!
I love coming all year round as in the winter the leaves of some of the trees glow bright orange which reminds me of home (Canada) The park is kept in excellent condition and is easy to access by bike, taxi or subway. The nearest station is Liede Station.
Zhujiang Park is an excellent place to have a picnic, walk with friends or just enjoy a day sprawled out on the grass in the sun. If you’re looking to eat more, not to worry, just a few hundred metres away are shopping centres and plenty of restaurants.
Highly recommend this beautiful piece of tranquility in an otherwise bustling city. #beautifulpark #scenicspot #relaxation

On Machang Road! Delicious and affordable private kitchen!
I accidentally discovered this newly opened private kitchen.
Not pre-made dishes! The seafood is delivered directly from Yangjiang.
The environment is quiet and a little quaint, and the cost performance is also very good. 🤩
▪️ Home-cooked deep-sea yellow croaker
A big yellow croaker 🐟, with a faint aroma of wine when served. I asked the waiter and he said that it was added with Huadiao wine. The fish is fresh and tender with a little sweetness, and pork belly is used to enhance the freshness. The soup is also delicious with rice. 😋
▪️ French puff pastry red braised beef ribs
An improved version of French braised beef ribs, which is a dish that requires skill. It is stewed with red wine, white wine, rosemary and other flavoring ingredients. The meat is firm and has a milky aroma.
▪️ Baked shrimp with three onion juice
Highly recommended! Three different onions are mixed to create a unique and rich flavor. 🤤 The rich onion aroma wraps each fresh shrimp, and the shrimp is firm and bouncy, fully absorbing the deliciousness of the onion juice. The sweetness and onion aroma fill the taste buds.
▪️ Chrysanthemum egg milk green rice ball
The elegant aroma of chrysanthemum and the sweet aroma of egg milk instantly fill the mouth. The egg milk is very smooth, and the glutinous green rice ball enriches the taste. It is sweet but not greasy. It is a good dessert after a meal. 👍

The Forest Park Hidden in Guangzhou CBD - Zhujiang Park
Zhujiang Park is located in Tianhe District, Guangzhou, and is a forest park hidden in the bustling city. The park covers an area of about 28 hectares, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of the traffic on the roads. It seems as if there is a barrier around the park. Once you step into the park, what you hear is the chirping of insects and birds, and what you see is the lush greenery of tall trees, making it a great place for exercise, oxygen intake, and relaxation.
This place is also a paradise for cats, with cats everywhere. Occasionally, you can see visitors interacting with the cats, bringing cat food to feed them.
Popular spots for social media check-ins: 1. Bay Area Book House, a coffee and beverage shop built in a small wooden house in the aquatic plant area, is quite an artistic cabin in the woods, where many young girls take photos and check in. 2. The fountains and black swans of Kuai Green Lake, and the hanging melon trees by the lake are quite special. 3. The park is free to enter, and there seems to be a parking lot at either the west or south gate, as well as a lawn camping site.

I enjoyed a wonderful calligraphy exhibition at the Bay Area Book House — the Destiny Calligraphy Exhibition
During my visit to the Pearl River Park, I stumbled upon a splendid calligraphy exhibition at the Bay Area Book House, an unexpected treasure. Unlike most calligraphy exhibitions I've seen, this was a joint exhibition by writer Cai Chongda and calligrapher Chen Yubi titled "Destiny." Calligrapher Chen Yubi extracted brilliant passages from two of Cai Chongda's works — "The Skin" and "Destiny" — and presented them in the form of calligraphy.
There is only one standard for text — accuracy.
Only with extremely accurate language can one touch the heart. It is difficult to find the precise words, which requires an intense interweaving of emotion and reason to craft sentences of penetrating insight.
① Even the worst way of living is still a way of living;
② People live for pride, and this pride is more important than anything else;
③ I know every stone here, and every stone here knows me;
④ I must find the distance to coexist with every sea, to find the best way to appreciate them;
⑤ In essence, we are all people who have lost our hometowns and cannot reach the distant places;
⑥ Every upcoming day will eventually become a part of me, they arrive and then stick to me, becoming me;
⑦ The easiest way to live in this world is to live for others, and if that person happens to live for you, then life is as sweet as a sweet potato;
⑧ There really is a sea in the human heart, constantly churning the soul, needing a heavy ballast to hold it down, so as not to be overturned.

This place is filled with visually striking galleries and a cool, shaded area for heat-averse plants
The Vine Garden (Image ①-Image ⑦) is located on the west side of the park, next to the children's playground, and features a long corridor that allows for very 🈶 impactful photos.
The Shade Plant Area (Image 10-Image 20) is near the north gate and is a large glasshouse containing streams, climbing plants, and ferns.
The fragrance of orchids hits you as you enter, and two tall epiphytic orchids create a uniquely stunning landscape. Looking up along the floral view, one of the world's largest Staghorn fern species, the magnificent Staghorn fern, silently welcomes every visitor who comes to admire.

Zhujiang Park — A green park suitable for brisk walking
Zhujiang Park in Guangzhou is located in Tianhe District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province. It is an ecological park mainly focused on green landscaping, with a beautiful environment and an elegant style. It is situated in the heart of Zhujiang New Town in Tianhe District, featuring attractions such as 'Kuai Green Lake' and Mulan Garden.
The spatial layout of Zhujiang Park is different from other parks; it doesn't have a clear spatial axis. The paths are arranged in a circular spatial sequence, connecting various attractions. Ponds are dug and hills are piled up on the original terrain. Inside the park, there is a 'Kuai Green Lake', which is not an open water area. It pursues a natural and smooth curvilinear shape. The lake is bordered by hills combined with dense woods, giving a profound and serene impression.
Zhujiang Park has four entrances: east, south, west, and north. I entered from the south gate and saw a stone slab titled 'Guangzhou Zhujiang Park National Fitness Path', engraved with a brief introduction and methods of brisk walking, along with a map of the park. A complete circuit around the park is approximately 1800 meters.
I walked around the park counterclockwise to take in the beautiful scenery. Pictures ①-⑥ are of the south gate, east gate, north gate, and Xingsheng Gate (west gate), respectively. Along the way, I encountered many cute and goofy felines 🐱

The hidden Bay Area Bookstore in Zhujiang Park
Hello, buddies! What I'm going to share today is a hidden beauty in Guangzhou - Zhujiang Park and Bay Area Bookstore. I have to say, this place is simply a pure land in the city, allowing people to find a bit of tranquility and comfort in the busy urban life.
First, let's step into Zhujiang Park. The moment you step into the park, it seems as if the whole world has quieted down. The trees are shaded, the flowers are fragrant, and it seems like you've stepped into a natural oxygen bar. Walking here, breathing the fresh air, is truly a pleasure.
Taking pictures here is also a must, the light half an hour before sunset is excellent
Easily produce large portraits
Next, we come to the Bay Area Bookstore. This bookstore is located by the river, with an elegant environment and full of literary atmosphere. The types of books are rich, ranging from literature to art, from history to popular science, everything is available.
Sitting by the window, sipping a cup of coffee, reading a good book, enjoying a leisurely afternoon, is truly one of the great pleasures of life.
