The romance of Guangzhou in May is half occupied by the passionate flame trees

hi, I am Shanguyao The flame trees begin to bloom in May, quietly climbing up the branches. It's just like the initial silent goodbye. Every time I see the fiery flame trees, I know the graduation season has come again. The sadness of parting is filled with the fervent youth of blessings. When the passionate flame trees meet the century-old ancestral hall, it's a different scene. The fiery red color complements the brick carvings and green tiles of the hall, as if telling the passionate and glorious past of Nancun. The Zhou's Ancestral Hall was built during the Qing Dynasty and renovated during the Republic of China. It consists of two halls with the same scale, form, and decorative style, thus it is called 'Twin Halls'. Ancestral halls with gardens like this are quite rare, and the flame trees are in this garden 'Yiyuan'. Looking up to carefully examine the details of this building, I am attracted by the exquisite murals, brick carvings, stone carvings, and wooden couplets. Looking higher, the dragon boat ridge and wok-ear roof with Lingnan architectural characteristics are uniquely chic. 🌟Shooting spots ✅Third-floor platform of the Hanfu Experience Hall next to the ancestral hall (the owner is very nice, he greeted me proactively when I passed by early in the morning, which is very warm for someone with social anxiety, wishing him a prosperous business) ✅The rooftop of the 6th floor of the factory building next to Yiyuan (sometimes the owner of the third floor next door might not allow access, to avoid disturbing others, so it's recommended to go directly to the factory building) ✅The road opposite the entrance of Yiyuan (the most checked-in shooting spot) 🌟Surrounding attractions ✅Longgui Nancun ✅Panlongli Old Village 📍Address: Zhou's Ancestral Hall in Longgui, Guangzhou 🕐Opening hours: Open from Tuesday to Sunday 🎫Ticket: Free 🚇Transport: Take the Metro Line 3 to Longgui Station, Exit B2, and walk 1.4 kilometers (you can also take a motorcycle there)
