Every place has its own unique charm, and as a native of Guangzhou, I have to introduce you to a very special place in Guangzhou - Shamian!
💠 This is a real-life "European town", with every brick and tile exuding a unique charm, as if you have traveled back in time a hundred years.
💠 There is also a very historic hotel here - Guangdong Victory Hotel
When you walk in, you will be instantly captivated by its British style! The lobby is luxuriously and elegantly decorated, with every detail exuding a sense of sophistication. There is also a Victory Museum inside, which houses many historical treasures, and any photo you take there will look like a movie still.
💠 Let's talk about the Yueya Twin Room! The room is spacious and bright, with a Cantonese style decor and elegant design elements. The two comfortable beds are soft and skin-friendly, and lying on them feels like being wrapped in clouds. The view from the window is excellent, with views of the streets or gardens of Shamian. Whether you are traveling with friends or family, you will feel comfortable and at ease.
💠 The hotel is also well-equipped, with an outdoor swimming pool, laundry room, children's play area, and gym. In addition to the basic facilities, there is also the Victory Museum, where you can learn about the history of the hotel and admire its collection!
Exhibition Check-in: Victoria Fairy Tale 2.0
The hotel recently held a new fairy tale exhibition, which is full of atmosphere! It is perfect for taking photos.
💠 Food Check-in: St. Liffey Garden Restaurant
I had a double lunch here, with beautiful garden views and a comfortable and elegant indoor seating area, and the price was very affordable. After lunch, you can also meet up with friends here to enjoy a comfortable afternoon tea 🫖
💠 Shamian Street: Strolling through time
After dinner, take a stroll along Shamian Street, where the streets are lined with green trees and the sunlight filters through the branches, casting dappled shadows, as if you are walking into a painting. Walking along the island through the cultural district, you can also see the arcades of Yongqing Fang and the Xiguan mansions, with the old streets of Lingnan style, every step is worth savoring.
💠 Shamian is truly a treasure trove of retro towns, with a sense of history and modern sophistication. If you want to go on a romantic journey through time, come to Shamian and check it out!
