A day trip to Guangzhou with a local, fun and delicious
My friend is from Panyu and took me around Panyu for a day. Panyu is not part of the four districts of Guangzhou, and it is easy for people who come here to miss it, but in fact, it leaves a lot of old Guangzhou flavor!
🍃 Combining beauty and food, this article summarizes a day trip to Panyu
🚩 Itinerary route: West Point Courtyard - Bao Mo Garden - Sha Wan Ancient Town
✅ This route can be walked in one day, Cantonese-style architecture as the main theme, and there are many delicious food nearby
✅ If you have time, it is recommended to walk to the Dripping Rock Forest Park 10 minutes away from the ancient town of Sha Wan, the environment is very good
💰 Cost: Except for Baomo Garden requires tickets (54 yuan), others do not require tickets. If you don't want to walk where you need a ticket, don't go to Po Mo Garden and go to Dripping Rock instead
🔸Xifang Courtyard
The West Point Compound is one of the important sites in Panyu’s industrial history. After renovation, it still retains some of its vintage old buildings. It is now a free cultural and creative park
But the West Plaza compound is actually very small, more suitable for people who like to take pictures, you can go to the Old Market Shop, Market Skyline Night West Plaza, Rice Valley Bookstore to check in ~
🔸Bao Mo Garden
Built in the late Qing Dynasty, it is an ancient-style blockbuster
There are pavilions, pavilions, ponds full of carp, and the environment is comfortable
Every year around March, the cherry blossoms here are in full bloom, which is even more beautiful
🔸Shawan Ancient Town
The ancient town of Guangzhou has a characteristic, it is an attraction but the locals do not take it too much as an attraction, both Lingnan ancient rhyme, while also full of fireworks. Choose a sunny afternoon and take a slow walk, looking at the architecture and tasting the food, time seems to change very slowly
🔸Drip Rock Forest Park
This is a wilderness fairyland with towering trees and various tropical plants. It is perfect for those who like to hike
If you just want to stroll around the park and take pictures, then just walk the section from the south gate to the fitness square is enough, the plants and environment in this section are beautiful enough!
🍲 Food 🍜
The development of this area of Panyu may not be as good as that of the city center, but perhaps because of this, the old flavor has been retained a lot! Sha Wan ginger milk/double skin milk, cha chaan teng, Cantonese cuisine, this area can be full of old Cantonese flavor.
