Get a feel for the region's history in Guangzhou Museum, which is housed in Zhenhai Tower. Built in 1380 at the start of the Ming Dynasty, its other name is the Five Stories Pagoda. As you walk through the exhibits you can explore the growth of the Guangzhou region over the past 2,000 years, and learn all there is to know about the dynasties that once called Bai Yun home.
Just outside of town is one of China's most gorgeous temples. The Bright Filial Piety Temple is a fantastic example of Zen Buddhist architecture. It's also one of the most influential temples in China, and has a strong history that dates back over 1,700 years. From here, head to White Cloud Mountain, which is one of the most beautiful spots in the entire province. Every time the sun shines after the rain a wreath of fluffy clouds circle the mountain - hence its name. White Cloud Mountain offers stunning views from the peak down over the city, and also many parks and peaceful spots to enjoy the great outdoors. Love birds? Come and see the Bird Spring Valley Park which houses the biggest natural birdcage in China, and is perfect to get right up close to native wildlife. Take a stroll along the river with the mountains in the background, and enjoy a peaceful afternoon in nature.
For the best shopping head to Haizhu Wholesale Market, where there's over nine floors of stores to give you plenty of options for great souvenirs, inspiring home decors or handcrafted textiles. The only problem will be how to fit it all in your suitcase!
