Step into Shawan Ancient Town, an 800-year-old gem where time stands still in the heart of the Pearl River Delta. Wandering through its cobblestone lanes, you’ll encounter elegant oyster-shell walls, traditional huo'er houses with curved roofs, and quiet canals that whisper tales of the past.
🎎 Must-Experience:
Liugeng Hall: An ancestral shrine adorned with intricate wood carvings
Cantonese Music & Opera: Catch a live performance in an old courtyard
Local Snacks: Try creamy pinpedao (double-skin milk pudding) and savory yuntunmian (wonton noodles)
The town breathes with culture—every corner tells a story of Lingnan heritage, craftsmanship, and slow-living charm.
📍Panyu District, Guangzhou
🚇 Metro Line 3 to Shiqiao Station + short taxi
🎫 Free to enter, small fee for specific halls
