Guide | Guangzhou is all about eating and shopping

| Guangzhou is all about shopping and eating. After ten years, I visited Guangzhou again. I recommend the following three-day itinerary for the city and Panyu area.

📅Travel route:
D1: Arrive at the hotel and put down the luggage - go to Beijing Road - walk to the Pearl River - walk along the river to Shamian - go to Yongqingfang - return to the hotel to rest

D2: After breakfast - go to Yuexiu Park - go to Panyu (Seagull Island and Lotus Hill) - return to Zhujiang New Town for a night cruise on the Pearl River (view the night view of the Little Slender Waist) - return to the hotel to rest

D3: After breakfast - go to Shangxiajiu Road - ride a bicycle to stroll around the old city of Guangzhou - return to the hotel to pick up luggage and go home

🌄 Recommended attractions:

1. Beijing Road (Big Buddha Temple, various historical buildings)
2. Shangxiajiu (main stores of time-honored brands: Lin Heung Lau, Emperor Emperor, Tao Tao Ju)

🚗Transportation strategy:
Public transportation: Most attractions are accessible
Self-driving: It is recommended to drive to Panyu area
Taxi: Guangzhou is quite congested, so it is recommended to avoid rush hour.

2. Morning tea: shrimp dumplings, siu mai, lava buns, barbecued pork buns, chicken feet, pork ribs, etc.
3. Roast meat: roast goose, roast duck, boiled chicken, soy sauce chicken, barbecued pork (braised meat is also good)
