After breakfast, our journey begins at the Chen Clan Academy. This Qing Dynasty ancestral temple complex, which is a masterpiece of Lingnan architectural art, is famous for its exquisite wood carvings, stone carvings, brick carvings, colorful paintings and pottery sculptures. Stepping into it is like traveling back to the ancient times. Every piece of brick and stone and every wood carving tells a story of history, allowing you to savor the deep heritage of Lingnan culture and the exquisite skills of traditional craftsmanship.

Afterwards, it is a short walk to the Six Banyan Temple. This thousand-year-old temple, built in the Southern Dynasty, was named after Su Dongpo's inscription “Six Banyan”. The colorful Six Banyan Temple inside the temple is a perfect contrast to the surrounding ancient trees, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and peace. Here, you can calmly listen to the bells of the thousand-year-old temple and feel the rare tranquility and transcendence.

In the afternoon, go to Yuexiu Park, which is the largest comprehensive park in Guangzhou and a good place for citizens to relax and have fun. Stroll along the boulevard, breathe in the fresh air and enjoy an oasis in the city. If time permits, climb up to Zhenhai Tower for a great view of the whole Guangzhou city, taking in the bustle of the city and the serenity of nature.

In the evening, we will head to the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, a solemn building that not only commemorates Dr. Sun Yat-sen, but is also an important historical and cultural landmark in Guangzhou. Afterwards, walk to Beijing Road, one of the busiest commercial streets in Guangzhou and the birthplace of history and culture. Walking along the street, the stores on both sides of the street will make you feel the prosperity of the modern city; at the same time, the historical relics such as the ruins of the South Vietnam Watergate and the ruins of the thousand-year old road on Beijing Road will make you appreciate the long history and culture of Guangzhou.

After breakfast, our journey takes us to the Canton Tower. This second tallest TV tower in the world is not only the landmark of Guangzhou, but also the best place to see the night view of Yangcheng. Taking the high-speed elevator straight to the top sightseeing floor of the tower, you can have a 360-degree view of the whole Guangzhou city without any dead angle. When the sunshine sprinkles the earth, the cityscape of Guangzhou becomes more charming, with the Pearl River New City and the architectural complex around the Canton Tower as far as the eye can see.

Afterwards, we head to the Nan Yue Wang Museum. This museum not only displays the history, culture and archaeological discoveries of the Nan Yue Kingdom, but also makes history “come alive” through high-tech means, allowing you to more intuitively understand the historical changes of Guangzhou and even the Lingnan region.

In the afternoon, we will go to Shamian Island, which is a unique place in Guangzhou. The island is covered with green trees and European-style buildings, as if you were in a foreign country. Here, you can leisurely stroll along the island's paths and admire the buildings that have survived the weather, or take a break at one of the island's cafes or restaurants to enjoy a quiet and cozy time.

We had a very memorable experience in Xi’An thanks to the expertise and helpfulness from Norman, who helped us planned our trip, and Waldener, our local tour guide from Into Explore. Norman helped us with the itinerary and bookings of transport and accommodations so it was stress free for me. He asked us our preferences when making the rooms reservation to cater to what we like and recommended the best way and places to explore this city. Our tour guide was also flexible with our schedule so we were able to do what we wanted and working around the weather. We were supposed to go Mt Hua on the 2nd day of our tour but it was forecasted to rain. He switched our itinerary around so we could climb Mt Hua on the 3rd day instead when the rain had stopped. Thank you Into Explore for giving us peace of mind to sit back and enjoy our vacation.

Independent travel by train in China…
Independent travel by train in China can be daunting ordeal. We decided to use Intoexplore for booking the trip and are very happy we did. It almost felt like Norman was a family member guiding us through how to use Alipay for payments in China to where to find the ticket office in the train station to convert digital tickets to paper. He was always available (sometimes at 6 am!) to answer any question and solve any problems that arose .. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is thinking about independent travel to China .
