2 Days in Guangzhou ?

Guangzhou General Attractions can be divided in two area - Yuexiu ( The Old Town area ) and Tian He ( The New Modern Area ) If you are a first time visitor and a foreign tourist , Yuexiu area would be a lot more attractive with rich culture & History dating back to the Chinese Dynasties ( Ming , Song ) All famous attractions like - Yuexiu Park , Sun Yat Sun Museum , Yong Qing Fang , Chen Clan Academy are on this side ! Now … let’s consider we are tight on schedule and have to spend 2 days ? Here’s my favourite places to go. One day in Yuexiu to enjoy the culture & 1 day in Tianhe ( especially in Tiyu Xi , Zhu Jiang Xin Cheng ) area for shopping and modern architecture. Yuexiu area 1. Sha Mian Island to enjoy the European Architecture , Tea museum & Church. And Pearl River View You can ride bicycle or take public transport to Yong Qing Fang There , you can spend a lot of time along the shopping street , Many photo spots and the amazing layout, architecture & Cantonese Opera After that , you can go to the Beijing Road ( its the whole area ) shopping street , Cathedral , Buddhist Temple. For Day 2 Tiyu Xi Lu and Zhu Jiang Xin Cheng area is packed with Guangzhou best High-end malls 1. Zhengjia Shopping Mall - where sport centers , aquarium are also located. 2. Parc Central - the only mall with Zara Store in Guangzhou. The area also have a lot photo places and a lot things to do with shopping streets.
