The essence of Lingnan's ancient architectural art. Whether it's pottery sculptures, wood carvings, or brick carvings, all are magnificent, exquisite, and lifelike. The "Double Dragons Playing with a Pearl" pottery sculpture on the ridge of the Beidi Hall is particularly beautiful and dazzling! Walking on the green-tiled platform is like traveling through time...
The environment is good, the hotel is built between green mountains and clear waters, the room is very new and clean. Because we ordered the wrong double bed room when booking, the front desk was very considerate to help us upgrade the room. The hotel's Western restaurant is very good, with the usual standards of InterContinental Hotels, a good choice

The plot is gripping and captivating, weaving together fragments of Lingnan's history and culture through a moving story. The choreography is exceptional. The theater attendant, Fu An, proactively guided the audience and provided excellent service.

A mountain's magic doesn't lie in its height; it's the immortals who dwell there!
My last visit to Xiqiao Mountain was a memory from the last century, but this time I was incredibly rewarded.
Next door is the Nanhai Museum, whose architectural design and collections are both worth a closer look.
The cable car has been reinstalled, which is really good for the elderly. It saves a lot of trouble and allows us to take them to Xiqiao Mountain for oxygen inhalation frequently. It is really good to take the elderly on family trips. Moreover, the scenery of Xiqiao Mountain is really beautiful and worth visiting often.

Families, when you come to Foshan, you must not miss the Nanfeng Ancient Kiln! The wood-fired dragon kiln has been burning for more than 500 years. Every brick and tile is full of traces of time. Standing in front of it, you can seem to see the busy figures of ancient craftsmen, which is shocking and wonderful. Experience throwing pottery with your own hands, from a lump of mud to a shape, and feel the charm of pottery on your fingertips, which is super fulfilling. There is also an ancient stove god banyan tree rooted in the chimney that is more than 400 years old. The Shiwan Ceramic Museum next to it is also worth a visit. It is antique and good to take pictures everywhere, so come here!
Nanfeng Ancient Stove is indeed a cultural landmark of Foshan! The core Gulong Kiln is still in use, and you can see the ceramic burning process with your own eyes, which is super shocking. The DIY experience project here is rich, suitable for parents and couples. The surrounding Ming and Qing ancient buildings are very charming, and the artistic atmosphere is also strong. You can enjoy exquisite ceramics and communicate with artists. The climate is good in spring and autumn, it is worth a visit!

It's a truly established resort! The activities are diverse and safe, with suitable areas for both adults and children. The staff were enthusiastic and patient throughout, offering helpful directions and explanations. The park's fees are transparent and reliable, and the souvenirs are adorable and affordable. I'm already planning a second visit! 🚀🌟
I didn't expect Changlu to be so meticulously detailed! From the zoo to the rides, each area has its own unique charm, with tons of photo spots. The restaurant's food was surprisingly delicious, too. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and fun, perfect for a relaxing day with the whole family. I'll definitely be back! 💯🌿🎠

Summer Stroll Map | Shunde's Most Fun Places Are Here
Visit Daliang and explore the 2025-listed attractions. Shunde Happy Coast PLUS offers free admission, so take any photo you want!
Not only does it have a romantic Ferris wheel, but you can also check out the incredibly popular "Shunde Eye," a dazzling night scene that creates stunning photos. The park is packed with delicious food, featuring Shunde specialties like double-skin milk and Lunjiao cake. Enjoy a bite while enjoying the river view after a tiring day. Weekends are bustling with street performances and markets, making it a truly hidden gem in Shunde!
The parking lot is quite large, though the fee is a bit steep at 6 yuan per 30 minutes, capped at 90 yuan. There are so many cars parked along the roadside at the park entrance—I wonder if they'll get ticketed?
🏠Attraction: Shunde Happy Coast PLUS
🚗Address: No. 1, Happy Avenue, Shunde District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province
The price/performance ratio is not high. Half of the package is for low-age projects. Other more fun ones require additional tickets. The local transportation is very convenient. It is very close to the subway. There are many shopping malls and restaurants. The price is not expensive. It is more suitable for children to play. It is recommended to buy other packages for adults. The park is open and it is still fun overall. It is just that this adult ticket is not cost-effective. . I may choose another package next time I go.

When you come to Foshan, you must visit the Ancestral Temple! It was built in the Northern Song Dynasty and is a treasure of ancient Lingnan architecture. It is known as the "Palace of Oriental Folk Art". The three carvings and two sculptures here are exquisite, and you can see lifelike Shiwan pottery figures. The Huang Feihong Memorial Hall and Ip Man Hall can let you feel the charm of Foshan martial arts. There are also super exciting lion dance performances! Whether you want to touch history or experience Lingnan style, the Ancestral Temple will not let you down!
The highlight of Foshan Lingnan Tiandi is that the Lingnan residential style architecture and modern trend elements are perfectly integrated in the late Qing Dynasty. The ear walls and carved eaves are very Lingnan characteristics. The exquisite wood carvings on the ancient doors and windows show exquisite skills. There are also many literary shops, specialties, simple and quiet during the day, and bright lights at night.

🏠Shunde-Fisherman's Wharf, although it has been built with a strong commercial atmosphere, the sunset here is really beautiful!
🕰️ Arrive around 18:30 in the evening. There is a parking lot nearby. The parking fee is 6 yuan/hour, which is quite affordable. You can watch the whole process of sunset on the observation deck, and you can also check in and take pictures. If you like sunset, you really can't miss it😊.
👻 There are also night markets, small commodity markets, lighthouses and other places for taking pictures, eating, drinking and having fun nearby. Friends who have time can go shopping [heart].
I came to Shunde Fisherman's Wharf and started a different journey. This was once Shunde's grain distribution center, and now it has transformed into a national AAA-level tourist attraction.
Walking on the wharf, the industrial style elements everywhere are fascinating. Red brick walls, old anchors, rusty chimneys, each one tells the story of the past. The blue and white lighthouse stands by the river, romantic and quiet, and has become a popular background for taking photos. Walking along the river, the breeze of Desheng River brushes your cheeks, making people feel comfortable.
The shops in the wharf have different styles, including cafes full of literary and artistic atmosphere and small shops selling special souvenirs. Walk into a cafe, sit by the window, order a cup of fragrant coffee, watch the people coming and going, and enjoy the leisure time.
In the evening, the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the river, and the golden waves sparkled. I found a seat by the river and sat down to enjoy the picturesque sunset. At this time, the Fisherman's Wharf seemed to be coated with a layer of golden brilliance, which was intoxicatingly beautiful.
Shunde Fisherman's Wharf is not only a tourist attraction, but also a place full of life. Here, I felt the perfect fusion of Shunde's history and modernity, and also experienced the unique charm of this city.

First of all, the transportation is quite convenient. After getting out of the Dongle Road subway station, transfer to bus No. 902 and walk for about 10 minutes. The bus runs every 10 minutes or so. The park is quite suitable for taking children to play. The game projects are especially suitable for those around 1.4 or in elementary school. The park is not big, but it is quite good to stay here for a day with children, during the summer vacation. The price of the restaurant in the park is still moderate, about 40 yuan per meal, but it is not a set meal, and they are all made with Snoopy patterns. There is also a cafe in the park with cakes and coffee, which is suitable for afternoon tea with photos and check-ins.
I took my kids here again after a year, and there were more people than before.
It was an exhausting day (strong sun 🌞 + sudden rain 🌧)
We entered the park after 3:30. The only thing I want to say is the bumper car project. It was too hot and dark inside. The division of the animal area was also different. In the end, I bought a cute backpack
