The land of canto food 🇨🇳

Resumed my travels in China and this time onwards to Guangzhou and Hong Kong !!
Even though Guangzhou might not have UNESCO Heritage Sites [or at least not to my knowledge 🤨] 
We went on a 8D7N trip for both countries!! Guangzhou truly lives up to its name of wholesale shopping and good food 🤤
I would say my expenditures for this trip weighs lesser compared to Shanghai, due to the costs of flight tickets and accommodations I managed to snag at discounted rates!!

Guangzhou 🇨🇳
Stayed at Fraser Suites Guangzhou, located in Tianhe district, similar to our town area in SG!
If you are going to Guangzhou with family, I will recommend Fraser! Fraser is an apartment like hotel where for a family of 5, we managed to book an apartment that consists of 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and it comes with a full kitchen as well!! It’s linked to a mall with a underground connecting metro: Shipaiqiao station 🚇
—————————
📍: 时尚天河
Located within 10 mins walk from Fraser. It’s an underground mall decorated to resemble old Shanghai! There are many different street food options available, as well as many clothing and handicrafts stores. 
This can be a pitstop for a more leisure paced schedule! As this mall is located within the vicinity of 3 mega malls! 
📍： Shamian Island 沙面岛
🚇: Line 1 or 6, Huangsha Station, Exit F 
A place with great historic significance. Many European styled buildings, each housing a different storefront eg. Starbucks, teaware, vintage clothing and many more! 
We stayed here for about 1-2 hours before heading off! I will only recommend this place if you are into history and photography, if not, this place can be a miss as there is not much activity here!
📍上下九步行街，永庆坊
😋： 陶陶居
They are all located within walking distance of each other!
陶陶居 is one of the famous Michelin dimsum eats in Guangzhou!! Yes, it’s pricey but i feel is definitely worth the try as the food is very tasty!! 
We went to the original shop located in 山下九, the building itself is about 4 stories high! We then headed to 永庆坊, Bruce lee’s home is located here! However we did not manage to explore as it was under renovation. Nonetheless, this area is still worth a visit as there are many cafes and shops around the area!

Above are the few places I went in Guangzhou that I felt were worth the visit!! Guangzhou has many wholesale shopping malls and due to the limited time we have in Guangzhou we chose to loop those out of the itinerary! 
Do note that we also visited Guangzhou in December, hence most wholesale will be selling winter clothing ❄️ #discoverchina #guangzhou #travel #familytravel #myitinerary #china #discoverchina
