Taste traditional Cantonese food or walk into a tavern full of Jianghu flavor, stroll through Guangzhou's most distinctive creative parks, and experience Lingnan water town with afternoon tea in the rejuvenated villages. This is the most authentic Guangzhou.

In addition to the charming Laoxiguan, Guangzhou also has very classical churches in the urban area.

Many old houses of various types have also been transformed into creative parks, which has become another kind of beauty in Guangzhou.

Of course, what you can't miss when you come to Guangzhou is the authentic delicious food, which will definitely make your mouth water.

Itinerary recommendations:

Day1 Dawen Village-Huangpu Ancient Port-Xiyue Building

Day2 Yu Yinshanfang-Chimelong Wildlife World-Songyue Self-Slow Cuisine-Zhujiang New City

Dawen Village, Panyu, is known as a demonstration village for sightseeing, leisure and agriculture in Guangzhou City and is known as the most beautiful ecological village. This beautiful village was formed by former fishermen who moved ashore. The villagers here retain the typical Tanjia living customs and have simple folk customs.

Dawen Village in Panyu is known as the Demonstration Village of Leisure Agriculture in Guangzhou. When I first heard this name, I didn't think so. I wondered if there are any more beautiful villages in Guangzhou than Xiaozhou Village or Huangpu Ancient Port? Taking advantage of May Day, I took Metro Line 4 to Dongchung Metro Station and then transferred to Bus No. 35. After chatting with friends, I arrived at the legendary Dawen Village. After taking the bus to the entrance of the village, I saw a post station that provided bicycle rental. Considering that there are many interesting places in the entire village, the price of 10 yuan per hour was not bad.

In kindergarten, the homeowner even made a new idea of putting cow stripes on the floor of the stairs

The first question I thought about when I came to the station was not my bicycle, but why the paintings in the station were so beautiful! Not only are there lotus carp on the lintel, orchids blooming in the corner, and even a peacock on the pillar! These colorful paintings are not just a building. When walking around the village, I also saw many residential buildings with paintings. These beautiful colors must have been on the old and mottled walls for some years, exuding elegance. When I first saw this house, I thought I had come to a kindergarten. The low shed was full of plants. What hangs down in the picture are the roots of a plant named "A Curtain of Dreams".

The houses near the water have a small door close to the water, which is convenient for boats. I heard from the villagers that the village waterway can lead all the way to the Pearl River outside. A boat for 10 yuan can seat 6 people, and we can swing slowly on the water for a long time. The locals will help us swing the boat. Not only can you see the scenery of the villages on both sides of the river, but there are many ducks and fat geese eating by the water's edge. Mother and son are pacing around the house. Puppies are running with the villagers on the shore. The boatman also greets the villagers on the water from time to time!

When you come to Dawen Village, you must not miss the water greenway here. Dawen Village is different from some rural areas in the urban area. The water quality is particularly good, so that in addition to the many crabs, there are also magical mudfish.

Are you already salivating, envious, jealous and hateful? In order not to let everyone look too greedy, there are more delicious food that will not be served. After having lunch at the restaurant near the bridge at the entrance of the village, we will continue on our way! There are large open green spaces outside the village, and volunteers from the village next door give tourists directions and are very patient and meticulous.

There are large areas of sugarcane fields and ornamental plant plantations on the road outside the village. On the other side of the village, there are indeed many ornamental plants on the road. Almost all the roads outside the village are planted with crops and look green. When I went, sugarcane had just sprouted. After a while, the roadside was filled with tall sugarcane, which was so beautiful! It depends on whether you have this kind of eye blessing and taste blessing ~

Walking out from Jixiang Road and slowly towards the road leading to the cultural center, you can leave the village after a period of time and come to the water town scenic spot in Dayong. It is also very good. The road signs in Dawen Village are very complete, and there is no worry about getting lost at all. The places near the Urban area are all newly built buildings. It is also a good place to take photos. If you feel tired, you can take the bus to arrive. Boating and eating suggestions are all settled in the village, because Dawen Village has infinitely beautiful scenery and outstanding food.

The transportation in Dawen Village is still very convenient, not to mention the simple villages here and the super original scenery. Take a day off the weekend and Dawen Village will surely live up to your good times!

Huangpu Ancient Port, a clean place outside the busy city

In addition to Dawen Village, there is another more convenient option, which is Huangpu Ancient Port. It happens to be on the same subway line 4. You can visit Huangpu directly from Dawen Village. These two villages will give you a completely different feeling. The road to Huangpu Ancient Port is very convenient and you can get there by taking a tourist line or sightseeing subway. When you walk into the village, the first thing that comes into people's attention is a very ordinary farmers 'market. It is neither chaotic nor noisy. The freshest fruits, vegetables and other agricultural products are neatly placed on both sides. Many tourists choose to visit this place after sightseeing, or play, or buy groceries. You can see an archway after walking around the road where agricultural products are placed. This not only represents the long history of Huangpu Ancient Port, but also unveils the curtain of the journey to Huangpu Ancient Port, which is the beginning of the journey.

Huangpu Ancient Port Site

In Huangpu Ancient Port, you can often see ponds of large and small, and you can definitely see towering old banyan trees and simple ancestral halls next to them. The trees are leaning against the water, and the ancestral halls are next to the trees. This is the feeling of ink painting and the layout of Lingnan. Style, not monotonous, but resilient. Follow the water and gently walk into the deep alley to find out.

Huangpu Ancient Port Site

The ginger milk and roasted oysters in the village are the most delicious snacks in my opinion! Nowadays, there are many shops where ginger and milk are opened, and they are always full of customers. The face of the old lady eating ginger and milk is filled with happiness. She is old, but the memories are still there and the taste is still the same. If you want to eat more of the flavor of old Guangzhou in the village, you have to walk to the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village. There is a particularly large area of water at the entrance of the village with a very good view. You can overlook the high-rise buildings on the south bank of the Pearl River, where ships anchor and depart. At the dock of Gugang, you can also take a boat to the other side to continue playing and see the relics of Gugang's prosperity at that time.

Maybe you will walk to a cafe and the flowers in front of the door are in perfect bloom.
Maybe you can see the Japanese house hidden in other houses, which is not yet open. Behind the imitation Western-style buildings after the Meiji Restoration, there is also a love story between China and Japan.

The first thing I saw was the Liang Ancestral Hall. I think the Liang Ancestral Hall is the ancestral hall that retains the most history and culture in Huangpu Village. At the entrance of the ancestral hall is a pond. The water surface is as smooth as a dressing mirror. Under the water, there are clusters of gently floating green water plants, and various exquisite flowers and trees are planted on the water. The fragrance fills the nostrils and the beautiful scenery comes into view.
Two large red lanterns are hung on both sides of the entrance of the ancestral hall, and a pair of awe-inspiring door gods on the wooden door are still faithfully guarding this ancient ancestral hall. In addition to the unique pattern of the Lingnan Ancestral Hall, there are also exquisite painted embossed on the eaves of the walls, and the wood carvings on the pillars are still lifelike. All these ancient but vital objects make the ancestral hall come alive and completely alive.

If you continue to walk forward, you will see the Huangpu Village Museum, which houses precious cultural relics from the Maritime Silk Road at that time, some of which are not yet visible in the provincial museum. Mendang, tile, and brick carvings, all kinds of details of Lingnan buildings can be seen in the museum. There are two old kapok trees next to the museum. You can see red when flowers bloom in spring. Standing under the trees and touching the striped trunks, we still feel the flowers in full bloom here, people coming and going, and boats and cars. scene.

Keep moving forward and there will be bifurcated roads, but don't worry. All small roads lead to the secluded area. Even if you walk around casually, you can see all kinds of Lingnan buildings. Although some have not been renovated, the bricks are still full of plants. The purpose is to have a surprising green color and feel the ancient flavor of the old times. This is the three-dimensional feeling brought by time.

Some ancestral halls and mansions in the ancient village have begun to sell cultural and creative products after recently decoration. Unlike other places, the products in Gugang are all related to Guangzhou's traditional culture, and many exquisite items can be bought at very cheap prices, which can give you a little satisfaction. It turns out that in ancient times, a pair of phoenixes flew to this place, and people have flourished since then. Five grains will be abundant. The village is located on a small island. The waterside area is called Pu. The land in the water is called "Zhou", so the village was named "Huangzhou" or "Fengpu", which later evolved into the name "Huangpu".

No wonder I found a dusty phoenix embroidery in a certain ancestral hall. The moment the dust was wiped away, I was surprised to see the exquisite embroidery. Nowadays, the exquisite ancestral hall here has become a display platform for art works, and the works complement each other with the architecture. In addition to Guangzhou's authentic food and Lingnan traditional architecture, the beauty of ancient port attracts people here is the feeling that we have always recalled. In this gentle water town of Lingnan, what is left is not only footsteps, but also a kind of city people's attachment to the village.

What makes Guangzhou people more nostalgic is the delicious "soup"

"Soup" accounts for half of Guangdong's food culture and is deeply integrated into the daily lives of Cantonese people. Cantonese people love to drink soup and soup‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Xiyue Tower was founded in Fuzhou. As soon as it appeared, it occupied the status of the king in Fuzhou hot pot industry. It still ranked continuously until 2 a.m. and frequently won authoritative awards in the catering industry. It also attracted several stars to come and check in addition to the reputation of the gourmets. recognition. Eleven stars, including Karen Mok, Huang Shengyi, Zhao Wenzhuo, have checked in to Xiyue Building one after another, and they have to order Xiyue Building's signature flower glue.

Gold-medal flower glue walking chicken with signature soup base, as well as high-end seafood and ingredients from all over the world, soothe the picky taste buds of every distinguished guest.

[Fresh ingredients]

The flower glue walking chicken in Xiyue Building has a thick soup base, full of essence, golden color, rich aroma, and the gel becomes stronger the more you drink...

[Fresh ingredients]

I don't know how many diners have come from all over the world just for this bowl of gelatine chicken soup.

Xiyue Building uses original and free-range Qingyuan chickens. Qingyuan chickens run about 20000 steps a day for a full 240 days.

I only feed corn and grains and drink mountain spring water. There is no excess fat, but the meat is firm, the skin is thin and crisp, and it is full of chicken flavor.

From ingredients to craftsmanship choices

Xiyue Building has strict requirements for every process

Just like Cantonese people love soup

Single-minded and pure

Even the ingredient plate looks fresh and lovely, and can be matched with various flavors according to your preferences.

Cantonese people who love to drink soup met Xiyue Building, which loves to be exquisite, and they felt like they met too late! Do you want to come and taste it?

Yu Yinshanfang is a private garden built by Wu Bin, a member of the Qing Dynasty, and one of the four major gardens in Guangdong. It is also the most exquisite one. After several repairs after the tornado hit, it finally shows its beautiful side to tourists.

I used to live on the opposite bank of Yuyin Shanfang. You can take a ferry to play here in Shanfang. The simple ferry makes people slow down. You can see another aspect of the Pearl River here. In the morning, there is still some fog here. It has a kind of secluded feeling that makes people forget that we are in a big city like Guangzhou.

Today, I have the honor to come to Yuyin Shanfang again. Everything here makes me miss.

Yu Yinshanfang, also known as Yu Yinyuan, is located on North Street, Southeast Corner, Nancun Town, Panyu District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, about 17 kilometers away from Guangzhou. Yu Yinshanfang is a private garden owned by Wu Bin, a ruler of the Qing Dynasty. It was built in the third year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1864) and has a history of more than 150 years. The park covers a total area of about 1598 square meters and is famous for its small, exquisite and fine layout artistic characteristics, fully demonstrating the unique style of ancient garden architecture and superb gardening art.

The layout of Yu Yinshan House is very clever. The pavilions, halls, pavilions, bridges, corridors, embankments, mountains, mountains, rivers and water in the garden are all contained in a radius of 300 steps. It fully reflects the cultural characteristics of the unity of man and nature and expresses a kind of A world view of harmony and unity between man and nature

Yuyinshanfang now has a subway, so it is more convenient to get here, and the ticket price is still so cheap. If you want your journey to not pass by in a hurry, you should see more of these Lingnan buildings and enjoy the beauty brought by traditional culture.

I like the rockery water in the mountain house best. Sitting quietly in the pavilion, you can also listen to the crisp sound of water flowing down from the waterfall, which makes people feel relaxed and relaxed. The "Exquisite Water Pavilion" was originally a place where poems and wine were written, and the wind and moon were sung. There were danosmanthus welcoming the rising sun, willows and towers were green, winterplum flowers were in full bloom, stone forests were close in shape, red bridges were clear, listening to the piano music in a sleeping spoon, and the beautiful octagonal of fruit altar orchids.

The layout of Yu Yinshan House is very clever. The pavilions and pavilions in the garden, halls and pavilions, bridges, corridors and embankments, and mountains and rivers are all contained within a radius of 300 steps. The four major carving works in the garden, including brick carving, wood carving, gray carving, and stone carving, are rich and colorful, showing the quaint style of the famous garden. There are also ancient trees towering into the sky and dazzling strange flowers, making the entire garden shine. The four major wonders in the garden, including "Bamboo Green Wall","Red Bridge Embarking the Moon","Deep Willow Hidden Treasures", and "Double Green Spring", make visitors eye-opener and forget to forget.

Su Dongpo once said,"I would rather eat without meat than live without bamboo." But how can we grow bamboo in less than three acres? The owner of the garden finally came up with a solution, which was to plant green bamboos between the walls. On the one hand, it does not occupy the area of the garden, can control its growth and spread, and can block the dust outside the garden. It is really three goals with one stone. After crossing the Hongqiao Bridge, you will see the "Shenliu Hall"

Wu Bin, the former owner of Mingyuan, also known as Yan Tian, was a member of the Qing Dynasty. He was an official to the head of the Ministry of Punishment and served as a seventh-grade councilor. What's even more rare is that his two sons are also scholars, so there is a saying that "one family has three scholars, and the father and son have been admitted together." Later, the owner of the garden saw through the world and retired to the fields, lived in seclusion in the village, and built this garden. In order to commemorate the blessings of our ancestors, the word "Yu Yin" was taken as the name of the garden, and we also hope that future generations will be able to cherish the blessings of our ancestors forever.

To the south of Yinshanfang is also close to a smaller Yu Garden. Yuyuan is a residential courtyard built in 1922 and was built by Wu Zhongyu, the fourth generation grandson of the owner of the garden. There is a boat hall on the ground floor, a small square pool outside the hall, and a glass hall on the second floor, overlooking the mountain house courtyard. It has now belonged to Yu Yinshan House, and the two gardens are combined, playing a supporting role.

Twenty years after the completion of Yu Yinshan House, Wu Zhongyu, the nephew of the owner of the garden, built a "Yu Garden" to entertain relatives and friends from afar. However, it is said that his eldest daughter and second daughter lived there on the eve of their wedding, so it is also called the "Miss Building".

On the night of the bright moon and clear wind, the moon's shadow, the shadow of the bridge, and the figure of the human figure complement each other in the lotus pond, forming a touching picture.

Open the windows one by one and look at the small pool below. The stone bridge close to the wall makes the scenery in front of you lively and doesn't feel awkward at all.

Compared with the elegance of Suzhou gardens, Lingnan gardens are more atmospheric and simple. One is a delicate little girl, and the other is a big man full of many worries. The rockery is full of various plants, and you can even walk to the rocky mountains to feel the beauty of being in nature.

Hidden in this step by step

The spiritual connotation of the Chinese people embracing all rivers

Hidden in it

Therefore, some people use the term "shrinking dragon into inches" to describe this garden

Every step brings a surprise

Viewed from the sky, lush trees and vegetation cover the entire park, providing a comfortable living space for animals. Looking down at the park, you will see a magical animal world. First we came to the sky above the "East African Grassland", a harmonious and leisurely animal scene.

If you are traveling as a family, I also recommend you to go to the Chimelong Wildlife World in Guangzhou. Be sure to take a ride on their high-altitude cable car. There is a voice navigation broadcast on the cable car, which will tell you where you are and what animals are down there., you can see it when you look down. Listening to the voice broadcast and looking down, herds of antelopes and wildebeest were walking leisurely on the grass, eating the grass on the grass. When they saw the breeders coming, they crowded over. It was time to eat.

There are also the "tall, rich and handsome" giraffes on the East African grasslands. They have long necks and long legs, slender limbs and leisurely steps that keep them in an elegant posture. Because they grow too tall, they generally don't lower their heads to eat. Giraffes in the East African grassland basically stick out their long tongues to lick the leaves on the tops of the trees. In the Chimelong Wildlife World, their food is also hung high on branches to make it easier for them to feed.

Asian elephants are the largest animals in the Chimelong Wildlife World, weighing up to 3-4 tons. Their huge bodies can be seen on the cable car. Asian elephants like to play around the pond, running down from time to time to take a bath, rolling until their bodies are covered in mud.

Moving forward, we can see the scattered lakes dotted among the trees and forests. Various waterbirds have open swimming environments. White swans and black swans swim gracefully in the lake. Pelicans, the big-mouth birds, flock to them when they come with their favorite small fish, filling their "big mouths".

Many tourists stopped when they saw white swans and black swans swimming, ran to the water's edge to feed the swans, and took the opportunity to raise their cameras and press the shutter to take pictures of these elegant elves on the lake.

Of course, some storks and other waterbirds choose to stand on branches by the water's edge or bamboo rafts on the water's surface to be a quiet and beautiful man. I remain calm despite the wind and rain outside, seemingly calm and composed.

It is said that food is eaten in Guangzhou, so the first thing I want to recommend to you today is Songyue cuisine located in the Pearl River City Building. "Songyue Self-Slow Cuisine" has Japanese elegance and warmth, and specializes in sashimi, hand rolls, grilled food, first-class dishes, etc.

"Songyue Self-Slow Cuisine" was founded in Fujian, but now it comes from slowness. Songyue has landed in Guangzhou and offers pure cuisine culture.

When you come to Songyue, you can see its warm and simple environment. The restaurant is a "dust-free restaurant" that requires taking off your shoes to enter. Murals with wind elements, tables and chairs exuding the aroma of Pinus sylvestris, environmentally friendly walls made of diatom mud, clean and elegant bowls, spoons, cups... Work together to create Japanese elegance and warmth.

There are also kimonos provided at the entrance to eat Japanese food. Of course, they are full of ceremonial feelings.

The inside of the restaurant is full of wind and cherry trees dotted it, making you feel better after watching it! In a clean, bright and exquisitely decorated environment, the sound of the clerk's service makes people feel comfortable, and the dining space is quiet and prosperous.

[Super tender beef, it tastes so moist]

In addition to the beef here, of course, try their salmon, which is super tender.

Songyue has fresh air cargo every 48 hours, so sushi sashimi is an indispensable choice. It is reported that sushi will change ingredients based on the day's air cargo to bring a little mystery before eating.

Compared with other salmon, new Zealand salmon has a more delicate fat texture, a light creamy aroma on the taste, and more nutritious value. Therefore, it is very popular among gourmets, and many well-known Michelin restaurants also use it for cooking.

The Zifeng salad is particularly bright and the colors are well matched. Chef Matsuyue checks the quality of the ingredients layer by layer, so that the beauty is not enough and the fullness is not enough. Chef Matsuyue examines the ingredients from an artist's perspective. Only 70% of the ingredients can be selected for the Songyue table, creating 100% aesthetic feeling on the table.

The hotel's check-in and check-out system can be completed self-service without going to the front desk. Moreover, you can leave without requiring room rounds when checking out, and no deposit is charged, which is very convenient.

elevator room

In addition to creating a sense of relaxation and entertainment, Meihao Lizhi also cares about the safety of your stay. The hotel is not only equipped with a high-end intelligent monitoring system, which achieves non-dead-corner monitoring in public areas, but also has a separate access control system at the entrance of each floor, allowing every guest to enjoy the ultimate security experience.

[Guest Room]

The Lizhi Collection of Meihao Hotel focuses on mid-to-high-end styles. Whether in terms of appearance, decoration and interior decoration, it is luxurious, exquisite, elegant and romantic.

The back wall of the elevator is decorated with wooden lattice, which looks particularly trendy. Let us walk into the room and experience the essence of Meihao Hotel.

I have stayed in many hotels, and most of them have warm yellow lights. However, Meihao is equipped with bright but not dazzling table lamps, allowing people to work comfortably.

Ultra-high definition projection equipment can also release 4K video. Watching movies in the room is definitely a first-class enjoyment. The connected intelligent playback system allows me to see the latest TV series on the large projection surface. In addition, there are international famous stereos distributed in the four corners of the room, and there is also an ultra-large subwoofer! Absolutely super enjoyment in the theater!

[Hotel Exterior View]

Although it is located in the central area of the city, the living environment of Meihao Rizhi Hotel is still private and quiet. The hotel rooms have a variety of different themed styles, decorated according to consumers 'habits, and the interior space is spacious and has all kinds of daily necessities. It has the flavor of home, familiar and warm!

Original ecological wood is the main tone.

Gray brick walls, cement floors, original ecological wooden tones, auxiliary rattan bird cage beds, swing chairs... nostalgic retro style, simple and fresh style, these seem to allow you to inadvertently arouse your heart during travel or business trips. That unforgettable memory of the years.
