Guangzhou Travel Blogs

On a balcony in Mainland China. I watch the city scurry below me.  A sea of unknown faces carrying out a million agendas, each on another mission in another moment.  Some walk hand in hand with their companions.  Others hustle in the darkness, for their night is a working …

I'm now heading to the airport in Shanghai and not looking forward to returning to Guangzhou because from that point on I will only be going in the direction of home (west) ... it's not that this full trip is over, I still have over 2 weeks left in B.C. Canada ... but the really big part …

My train journey from Hong Kong to mainland China is a breeze; in an hour-something I'm in the Peoples Republic of China, worlds most populous country, economic powerhouse, manufacturer of half the things in your house. Probably. I'm on my way to Guangzhou, capital of the Guangdong province and cen…

I seem to have a lot of calamities on my vacations but the layover in China was the one where I was a bit scared. I swear i am getting smarted as I am traveling more.. We didn't know (as we booked our flights and everything on line) that we needed a Visa for China. We thought everything was gra…

This is my third asian metro! All three (together with Hongkong and Shenzhen) are in the Perl-river delta. It would be a sin not to visit the famous Kanton (=Guangzhou) if i was so close! It's a brand new system with 4 lines and more than 4 more to come. Unfortunatelly they installed the screen doo…

Woke up well early again today. Had a shower for the first time since HK. We decided it the hair sticks in the same position it's time to wash. Just lazed around on the computer working out bus routes to Hanoi. Livia slept until like 11 and we checked out at 12. Hung around for a while as we ha…

We tryed to wake up earlier to get before noon to Guangzhou (known in Europe also as Kanton). We went to the railway station in order to get the fast train there. But this wasnt that easy. First we couldnt find the part of the station which was dedicated to fast trains and the station stuff showed …

5/29/2006 4:00 PM   I absolutely love my new hotel. It is my favorite hotel in the whole entire world. It has the most gorgeous lobby in the world. You walk in to one area that is nice and spacious with beautiful flowers, and then you walk into another area where the check-in is. Behind tha…

Heute hieß es wieder einmal früh aufstehen, denn mein Zug von Hong Kong nach Guangzhou ist bereits um 9 Uhr gegangen. Der Weg zum Bahnhof dauert etwa eine halbe Stunde und dann mußte ich noch ein wenig Zeit für die Formalitäten bei der Ausreise einplanen. Am Weg zum Bahnhof ist mir schon wiede…

Guangzhou is the place where I´ve borned and grew up with, which is the 3rd biggest cities in China...Even though I am living now in Germany, i fly back to GZ & Hong Kong once or twice a year!! I am always proud of being a Cantonese!!

I went with a group of 50 or so court reporter delegates with People to People to Beijing and Guangzhou, China

my trip to China was primarily work with one day off, and it was def that!! ha ha... i was eager to come home by day seven, not because of being homesick, but eager to see the Sun, birds and yes even insects again! the reason for my being there is that we are developing the newest, 'greenest' air purifier... green it is, but not in such a green environment =( i really hope to visit again, preferably Laos and Beijing on holiday ;)

Guangzhou has changed a lot. Come on in and check the changes by your own. Welcome to Guangzhou and select me to be your tour guide!And if there is any old photo of GZ you want to figure out where is the exact place. I am the helper you need!

Upon returning from 6 months service in Iraq, I decided to venture into beautiful China, originally to visit my Father, but in the end just partied in the small country town, of a couple of hundred thousand maybe even a mil, Yungshou. As much as I wanted to travel around I did have the extra baggage of a 14 year old sister. Which gets tiring majority of the time. But regardless the month in Yungshou is still the greatest Holiday I have had to date....
