Guangzhou, also known as Canton, has a history of more than 2200years.  This journey is not just a stroll through a bustling street, it's a leap through time, revealing the city's vibrant past and present.

What Does It Consist Of?

We begin at the entrance of the Taoist City God Temple. It's one of the favourite places of local people. 

Next stop is Nanyue Palace Museum. The museum displays the relics of the Nanyue royal garden, and walking among the ruins feels like time travel. 

Next, we'll pass by the Taiping Restaurant, the earliest Western restaurant in Guangzhou. 

Then, we'll walk to the site of the Thousand-Year Ancient Road.  It is a witness to the thousand-year transformation of Guangzhou.

After that, we'll visit the site of the Gongbei Tower. It was the ancient time-reporting center, the location of the ancient Guangzhou timepiece "Copper Pot Clepsydra".

Next, we'll arrive at the Great Buddha Temple. In the midst of the bustling city, this magnificent temple stands as a peaceful haven. 

After that, we'll visit the Lingnan Financial Museum. You can even try lifting the weight of one million Chinese Yuan.
