BAILEY MANNING

National Geographic didn't lie to me! This is really an ancient town in Guangdong with a strong New Year atmosphere

🚩In order to provide everyone with a real travel experience, I specially recommend the ancient towns around Guangzhou with a strong New Year atmosphere, which are niche, good for shooting and fun🎊 ✨I really love the city of Kaiping, which is directly accessible by high-speed rail and only 1h+ away from Guangzhou🚝 🤩Kaiping Diaolou, as a World Cultural Heritage site and one of the representatives of Lingnan culture, every visitor will be shocked by the architectural complex here! Zili Village is a typical representative~ 🎈In addition to the Diaolou, I also highly recommend Chikan Overseas Chinese Ancient Town! The retro arcade old street, dressed in national style, takes pictures with a strong sense of crossing the Republic of China📸 🧨If you can only go to one ancient town during the Spring Festival holiday, I would definitely recommend here! A 2-day and 1-night itinerary full of New Year's atmosphere🎊 Day①🎈 Guangzhou→Kaiping South→Chikan Overseas Chinese Ancient Town→Check in at Meitang Hotel (The tourist service center can directly transport luggage to the hotel, which is super convenient)→Start to visit the scenic area 11:00 Rong'an Building🎇 The big spring couplets really have a New Year atmosphere 11:30 Station Square🎊 You can see the same intangible cultural heritage flower cards without going to Hong Kong! You can also encounter lively lion dance performances 12:00 Niuxi Road Snack Street🥘 Specialty charcoal pot rice, tofu corner and other delicious snacks are waiting for you to taste! In this century-old arcade, there are also New Year's big calendars, spring couplets, wealth walls and other New Year scenes, eat and stroll, enjoy leisurely slow time 14:00 Dragon Year Tram🚃 Riding a 30min tram through the century-old street, as if crossing to 'Blooming' in a second🎞
