Guansiwei Hakka Tulou is a relatively niche tourist attraction, somewhat similar to the Tulou in Fujian. It's not crowded, but the scenery is indeed quite nice. While not particularly spectacular, I think it would be a good choice for a long-stay stay. It really could be better promoted!

This trip to Laojun Mountain was perfect. The bus was comfortable, and the tour guide was both funny and professional. Reaching the Golden Summit, the Taoist temples were majestic, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, giving a profound sense of the vastness of the world. It was definitely worth the trip.

We had a fantastic day at Chimelong Safari Park! The park is beautiful, with amazing scenery and a huge variety of animals. It's enormous, so I strongly recommend arriving early to have enough time to explore everything without rushing.We expected to see more giant pandas, but there were only two, although they were incredibly cute! We also hoped to see red pandas, which were listed as being at the park, but unfortunately, there were none.The animal show was excellent and entertaining, even though it was entirely in Chinese. We also hired a wonderful guide who was friendly, helpful and made a real effort to ensure we enjoyed our visit. We appreciated her efforts so much that we gave her an extra tip, even though she initially refused it.Overall, a great experience and well worth visiting in Guangzhou. Just arrive early and check which animals are available to see before your visit!

Longnan Wudang Mountain, with an altitude of over 500 meters, has a sightseeing ladder that leads directly up the mountain, making it friendly for the elderly and those who prefer a leisurely pace. If you want to experience the climb, it takes about 3 hours round trip, which is manageable.
You'll pass by Tuntian Cave (Figure 7), a natural stone gate, and walk along the cliffside glass walkway – perfect for taking photos.

We entered from the South Gate. Although there were many people, it wasn't chaotic at all. The signs were very clear, and the staff were very responsible. It was a very enjoyable trip for the kids; Guangzhou is beautiful and delicious. It was our first time seeing a rhinoceros and our first time riding a cable car—a great experience!

Located only a ten-minute drive from Longnan city, the scenic area is relatively small and less crowded. Yuxu Cave and Yangming Pavilion are particularly nice and worth a visit. The view from Yangming Pavilion is excellent, and on the way down, you'll pass a mineral lake, perfect for taking photos. There are also several indoor venues nearby.

Window of the World is a old theme park but it is definitely worth visiting for tourists who have been to many places around the world or who have seen many worldly sites through media or books. There are also ample food choices within the place. There are several rides too. Also, forget to visit Melania town either before or after to conclude your visit. One can spend a fully day, including the night too if you have the energy. Really great for family visit

I took my two kids to Chimelong Circus and had a great time there. The tickets are not cheap and totally worth it. The performance combined excellent aerobatic, ans circus performance with fantastic lighting and stage design. We enjoyed the whole show and felt the time flying by. If you only had once chance to visit Chimelong, I strongly recommended you to watch the show.
