GUANGZHOU

Guangzhou, known in the West as Canton, is the capital city of the huge province of Guangdong China.There is a colonial side to Guangzhou that has a relaxed and laid back feeling to it. Many of the buildings and churches on Shamian Island are well maintained and rather pretty, especially compared to the high rises and granite buildings on the other side of the river.Eating is certainly the main pleasure for the local residents of Guangzhou and there are literally hundreds of good restaurants serving up authentic Cantonese cuisine. The atmosphere in many of places of Guangzhou is great and not unlike the city itself- lively, friendly and very very noisy!
