Guangzhou City

A thousand-year-old trading hub and center of Lingnan culture, with morning tea, arcaded old streets and the hot springs of Conghua.

Guangzhou is the capital of Guangdong Province, located in the northern Pearl River Delta. It has been a thriving trading port for a thousand years and remains the center of Lingnan culture. The Canton Tower and a Pearl River night cruise show off the modern city, while the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, Shamian Island and Yongqing Fang reveal Lingnan architecture and history. Morning tea (yum cha) and Cantonese cuisine are experiences not to be missed. In the north, Conghua is known for its hot springs and the natural scenery of the Liuxi River. Autumn and winter are cool and dry, making them the best time to visit. Arrive via Baiyun International Airport or high-speed rail stations such as Guangzhou South.
