The long history and culture and cultural origins are deeply reflected in every part of the city. The exquisite urban streets, the lush traffic from the past running in buildings that combine Lingnan style and modernization, the lush urban streets all year round, and the sunset in the west in summer. At dusk, stumbling in the park and enjoying the tranquility brought by the hustle and bustle of life, I was deeply impressed by this city that is compatible with fast pace and slow life.
When you go from the airport to the hotel you booked, the scenery along the way is blue sky and green. When you enter the famous Tianhe District, the scenery is no longer a single green bush, but a high-rise building rising from the ground. In the evening, the sunset far away in the sky instantly coats the city's skyline with a golden coat.
Understanding a city cannot be defined just by its appearance, but also by experiencing the lifestyle of local people. Therefore, I planned to stay for a while during this trip, so I chose to stay in a serviced apartment. The "Ascott Serviced Apartment Guangzhou International Trade Center" located in Tianhe District is a new project launched by Ascott, the well-known serviced apartment brand, in Guangzhou last year. What attracts me is its high cost performance. The room not only has the spacious living space and large bathtub that are standard in hotel rooms, but also an open kitchen and washing machine. The kitchen is equipped with pots and pans. When I don't like to order takeout, I can go to the supermarket to buy ingredients and cook my own meals in the room. The washing machine is also equipped with a drying function, which is very suitable for people who come to Guangzhou for a short stay.
Walking into the lobby of the apartment, what is different from the original plan is that the overall design style is mainly dark gray, dark gold and raw wood, and the colors are very elegant. Moreover, they also use Guangzhou's traditional cultural elements in place-"Lingnan Characteristic Cultural Symbols" are adopted. The techniques of modern art are implanted into every corner to interpret the integration of tradition and modern culture, and create a noble and elegant sense of space.
The landscape pool next to the entrance of the apartment breaks the sense of urgency in the center of the city. It is a refreshing and refined place in the busy city. In the lobby and lounge area on the sixth floor, there is also an about 8-meter-long large-scale art installation mural "Wo 'er Gables", which is very eye-catching. The huge glass window can also see the night view of Guangzhou's city, which instantly relieves physical and mental fatigue.
The style of the room made me feel like I was back at home. The overall situation was very elegant, simple and atmospheric. The most important thing was that the super large windows in the room could see the skyline of Guangzhou Zhujiang New City at 180 degrees. Have a drink and have a look at this beautiful scenery. The scenery is so comfortable, and you can take many beautiful photos on the windowsill.
There are business districts near the apartment, and there are many attractions to visit. I recommend everyone to visit Zhengjia Polar Ocean World. It is only 1.1 kilometers in a straight line from the hotel. However, this attraction requires tickets and can be booked in advance. The aquarium is super big, with more than 300 species of polar marine life. Walking in the tunnel is like living on the bottom of the sea. It is very shocking, and you can also take many beautiful photos with marine animals.
You can go to the Canton Tower in the afternoon. The hotel is very convenient to the subway station. It takes about 18 minutes to get to the Canton Tower by subway. It's the first time you go to play, you can climb the Tower and overlook the whole of Guangzhou. If possible, it is recommended to go to the Tower at night. This way, you can see the beautiful night view of the whole of Guangzhou.
If you have enough time, you can visit Haixin Bridge, a new landmark in Guangzhou. The night view here is also very good. It is close to the river and you can take a walk and blow the river breeze. You need to make an appointment in advance to get to the bridge.
Because the apartment is located in the Guangzhou International Trade Center, I usually come here when I eat and shop. Next to it is the shopping center-International Trade Center, which has business, leisure, cultural and other facilities. The most important thing is that I don't have to go shopping too late. Because my home is upstairs, I personally feel that this place is quite suitable for long-term residence, with everything I need.
On the third day of the tour, I went to the Xiguan Tourist Area, which is full of Lingnan culture. I took the subway for about half an hour from the subway station near the hotel. According to local people, this place was renovated in 2016 and I saw the architectural design here. On the basis of retaining the traditional Xiguan Arcade, it was combined with commercial art to return to the public's attention in a revitalized way. There are more fun things here, such as coffee, handicrafts, Cantonese Opera Art Museum and Bruce Lee's ancestral home. The Cantonese Opera Art Museum can provide an in-depth understanding of Cantonese culture. The Xiguan Arcade full of Lingnan style is really special and worth a visit.
There are too many delicious food in every scenic spot. Food from all over the country, especially the interesting food is the local food in Guangzhou. You will find that it is hidden in places such as small alleys. The taste of the place where the queue is long must be delicious.
Of course, if you don't want to go out, there are supporting club facilities in the apartment to play with. The gym and yoga room are used for free by residents. While doing yoga, you can also see the 180-degree night view of Zhujiang New Town. The scenery is really beautiful.
Sure enough, the charm of this city is far greater than what I had in mind. My understanding of its history and culture is only the tip of the iceberg. Under the mask of a super-first-tier city, it is its all-encompassing inclusiveness. The charm of "Yangcheng" does not stop here., it is a city that keeps you exploring until you fall in love with it.
By the way, although the apartment itself does not have a restaurant, it is now working with the Speed Pizza buffet breakfast in the mall. If you stay during the celebration period from July 15 to August 15, you can get a buffet breakfast for an additional 1 yuan per day. OTA guests can also enjoy this benefit ~ Come and participate quickly!
