Guangzhou and Fuzhou both serve up endless shopping finds, historic sights, and food heaven 🍜💸. If you love modern convenience mixed with local flavors, this trip is absolutely for you!
Top Spots to Visit:
1. JI Hotel (Guangzhou Caihongqiao Subway Station)
No.104-1, Liwan Road, Liwan District, Guangzhou
Booked for smart touches and seamless service—from robot meal delivery to spotless rooms (heated toilet seats FTW). Super handy for metro access, making it easy to get anywhere.
2. Xihua Road Food Street
Gangfeng Building, Xihua Road, Liwan District
Open 24/7 and just a short walk from Chenjiaci Metro (Exit F)—grab street snacks morning to midnight. Try the fresh dim sum and local desserts here!
3. Chen Clan Ancestral Hall
No. 34, Enlongli, Zhongshan 7th Road
Open 09:00-17:30 most days, closed Tuesdays, ¥77 entry. Amazing architecture and outdoor cultural vibes—perfect spot for those IG-worthy shots. Tip: Best visited early to beat crowds and enjoy the peaceful courtyards.
4. Bing Sheng PinWei (ZhuJiangXinCheng Flagship Store)
珠江新城冼村路2号1-4楼(省博物馆对面)
A must for Cantonese classics. The roast meats and double-boiled soup lived up to the hype!
5. APM Shopping Mall (Fuzhou)
Modern and spacious—ideal for picking up gifts or simply people-watching.
Getting Around:
Use the Guangzhou Metro for fast, cheap travel (buy a one-day pass if you’re hopping between multiple spots). Download a local taxi app for late-night rides.
Pro Tips:
Guangzhou summer is humid—dress light and stay hydrated! Most eateries accept cash or WeChat Pay. At hotels, take advantage of robot delivery for snacks and laundry—it’s way more efficient than calling the front desk.
Food Recs:
Always try the local baked buns and congee. Bing Sheng PinWei is top-tier!
