The Canton Tower stands on the south bank of the Pearl River, facing Haixinsha Island and Zhujiang New Town across the river. At approx. 600 m tall (including the transmission antenna), it is one of China's well-known observation towers. The tower features a hyperboloid structural design, narrower in the middle and wider at the top and bottom. Because of this distinctive slender waist shape, it is affectionately nicknamed the "Slim Waist" by locals. After nightfall, the LED lights on the tower illuminate, displaying rich colors and animated effects, making it a highly recognizable landmark on the Pearl River night skyline. Even without entering the tower, photographing the illuminated exterior along the river is a popular way to check in. The tower features multiple functional areas arranged from lower to higher levels, with sightseeing and entertainment options throughout. The lower zone includes the Pearl River photography observation deck built along the river, offering expansive views ideal for capturing panoramas of the city's central axis. At over 400 m above ground, the Baiyun and Starry Sky themed observation halls provide sweeping views of Guangzhou's new central axis and the scenery along both banks of the Pearl River. The science exhibition hall shows visitors how supertall buildings withstand strong winds and earthquakes. The tower also offers leisure spaces such as a revolving restaurant and a high-altitude tea room. The high-altitude experiences at the tower top area are particularly rich. The horizontal Ferris wheel features over ten fully transparent capsules that slowly rotate along a track at the tower top, allowing visitors to overlook the panoramic view of Guangzhou from within the capsules.

Nanyue King Museum-The Site of King's Tomb

Nanyue King Museum-The Site of King's Tomb

8
4.6/5
6.3k reviews

The Museum of the Nanyue King (Royal Tomb Exhibition Area) was originally the Museum of the Western Han Dynasty Nanyue King, which opened in 1988. After the two museums merged to form the Museum of the Nanyue King in 2021, this area became the exhibition area themed around the royal tomb. It was built around the original site of the tomb of Zhao Mo, the second king of the Nanyue Kingdom of the Western Han Dynasty. This royal tomb was discovered in 1983 during construction on Xianggang Mountain on the west side of Yuexiu Mountain. It was carved into the mountain and buried deep inside the mountain. The tomb is shaped like the Chinese character "士" (shi), and is divided into seven burial chambers according to the "front court and rear palace" layout. It has been undisturbed by tomb robbers for more than two thousand years and is well preserved. The entire exhibition area consists of three parts: the ancient tomb protection area, the comprehensive exhibition building, and the main exhibition building. The original site of the tomb is preserved within the ancient tomb protection area. You can enter the original tomb site: the upper walkway offers an overhead view of the stone chamber structure. To descend to the lower level for a closer look, advance booking is usually required, with limited slots available. Even if you can't secure a spot, it won't diminish your experience of this mountain-carved royal mausoleum. Among the unearthed artifacts, the jade burial suit stands out as the signature piece. Composed of over 2,000 jade pieces threaded together with silk, it measures more than 1.7 m in length and is one of the earliest and most complete jade suits discovered in Chinese archaeology. The dragon-knobbed gold seal inscribed "Seal of Emperor Wen" found near the tomb owner's chest directly confirmed his identity. The main exhibition, "Treasures of the Nanyue Kingdom: Artifacts Unearthed from the Nanyue King Museum-The Site of King's Tomb of the Western Han Dynasty," is divided into five sections: the gold seal of Emperor Wen, treasures from the main chamber, sacrificial victims, imperial storage, and ritual bronzes. Beyond the jade suit and gold seal, you can also see the rhino horn-shaped jade cup carved from a single piece of green jade (now listed among China's prohibited overseas exhibition relics), the high-stemmed cup combining jade, gold, silver, bronze, and wood materials, as well as over ten sets of jade pendants and dozens of jade sword ornaments from the Han dynasty. The double-ring jade pendant with openwork dragon and phoenix designs was found covering the tomb owner's right eye. Its inner ring features an openwork swimming dragon, while the outer ring depicts a phoenix—this very motif became the source of the museum's emblem. The visit usually follows the order of the comprehensive exhibition building, the ancient tomb protection area, and the main exhibition building. The comprehensive exhibition building also features a special exhibition titled "Ceramic pillows donated by Mr. and Mrs. Yang Yongde," where the diverse shapes and glazes of porcelain pillows from various dynasties are easily overlooked but worth taking a few minutes to appreciate. The tomb also contains over ten sacrificial burials, corresponding to the "Sacrificial burials in the tomb" unit, offering a direct insight into the unique burial customs of the Nanyue Kingdom. If you're interested in Han Dynasty jade artifacts or the history of the Nanyue Kingdom, it's recommended to hold two to three hours for a thorough exploration.

The Ocean Parade was lively and adorable, and the kids didn't want to leave. The park's paths were wide and not crowded. The Rainforest Restaurant was easy to find, the service was friendly, and we finished eating just in time for the next show – the timing was perfect.

Chimelong Safari Park boasts a wide variety of animals, a well-planned layout, a mini-train, white tiger diving, the largest koala family in China, and the national treasure panda. It's definitely worth the ticket price!

I think 300 yuan per person is great value for money. It includes a free cable car ride for a panoramic view of the entire park, and a free mini-train ride for a close-up look at the animals on the African savanna – you get to see everything from different angles. We also spent 300 yuan to drive through the park and get a more intimate look at the animals – a very immersive experience. It wasn't the weekend, so it wasn't too crowded. The park staff were very responsible in their explanations. We also ordered a three-person set meal inside the park, which was a bit pricey, but reasonable for the park's price.

I’ve a great memorable and interactive time in the Chimelong International Circus. I purchased at here since I was not able to purchase in WeChat as I don’t have China phone number. The view is so great and all of the performers are just infront of me. Totally recommend this experience! It’s just a pity that it’s only 1hr! :)

I'm ashamed to admit I haven't visited the Museum of the Tomb of the Nanyue King in all these years in Guangzhou 😅, but I was incredibly lucky to stumble upon a special exhibition of Egyptian artifacts. Seeing two great civilizations in one visit was an immersive experience that I highly recommend! The museum is located on Xianggang Mountain, built on the original site of the tomb. This is truly unique; it's not just about moving exhibits into the hall. Standing in the tomb passage, you can feel the original layout of the tomb. It's not just looking through glass from afar; you're genuinely on an archaeological site. The details of the Nanyue King's tomb itself are breathtaking. The jade burial suit, gold seal, and chime bells are far more impactful than textbook pictures. The information panels are very clear, making it easy to understand the funerary practices, craftsmanship, and history of the Nanyue Kingdom in Lingnan during the Han Dynasty—it's not just a superficial visit. The biggest surprise was the concurrent Egyptian exhibition! I hadn't planned ahead, but once inside, I discovered how wonderful it was to see different civilizations side-by-side. Having ancient Egyptian stone carvings and ornaments alongside Nanyue artifacts in one visit, comparing the craftsmanship of two ancient civilizations, was a truly novel experience. The exhibition hall has a well-designed layout, preventing overcrowding. The lighting is also suitable for viewing the artifacts, avoiding glare that obscures details. Tips: It's recommended to book online in advance. Audio guides are available for rent inside the museum; otherwise, you might miss the historical context. The ground-level tomb area has many steps, so wear comfortable shoes. The museum isn't extremely large; allowing 2-3 hours is just right and won't be too tiring. Overall, it offers excellent value for money and is a must-see for history enthusiasts. Catching a special exhibition was a delightful surprise; the experience of encountering two ancient civilizations simultaneously is rare, and I'll definitely visit again!

We really enjoyed this cruise. 60 minutes of relaxing stress relief. The views of the night city skylines was incredible. We enjoyed seeing everything from a different angle combined with less crowded area to view close up Canton tower. The three bridges we traveled under also offered a different fun experience. A pretty city showcased by the cruise. Food (snacks stuff) and drinks are served to order throughout trip

The experience was fantastic, and the service was excellent. Today we saw the orca show and the mermaid fantasy show, and brought the kids here for another experience. It's definitely worth seeing again. The rides were also very fun, and the overall experience was great.

We didn't catch any squid, but the owner helped us by casting a net every half hour, bringing up quite a few. We had a barbecue on the boat, which was a nice way to relax and have some fun in the evening. Even though we didn't catch any fish, we still had a barbecue and seafood porridge dinner.
