Macao to Guangzhou
By WANHU | 6/13/2010 9:49:49 PM
Usually I travel alone, but on June 1 (2010) I travelled with nine others. After a smooth touch-down at the Macao International Airport (MIA) around 10:30 then we proceeded to the bus stop where we waited for the AP1 shuttle bus. We waited for almost 30 minutes but the bus was yet to arrive. The fee was MOP4.20 instead of MOP3.30 but the luggage was still the same, MOP3 per every bag. Well I have not been to Macao for more than a year. The 10 of us decided to take a taxi instead of the shuttle bus, although it cost us more, especially with 3 taxis, but we didn't want my 2 Chinese nieces to wait for us in vain near the Gongbei Port.
From Gongbei we took a 15-seater coaster to Guangzhou. The cost of the van was RMB870. The journey was quite smooth until we reached Guangzhou. As it was raining while the roads were under repair to prepare for the coming Asian Games, the congestion was quite bad. We arrived at the hotel in Xiaobei almost at 17:00, that took us almost 5 hours from Gongbei to Guangzhou.
It is.indeed easier for us to rent a van rather than taking a public bus. The van sent us direct to the hotel doorstep and if we took a public bus, it will stop at the bus terminal then we have to take other busc or taxis.

Theft and Robbery Cases
By VIGORHE | 10/16/2009 5:15:17 AM
Theft and robbery cases frequently occur in Guangzhou. Security status might be improved with the Asian Games approaching.
Helpful advices are given to tourists who are going to visit Guangzhou as follows:
1. Remember to take legal cabs to hotels you reserve in advance when you arrive at the airport
2. Never walking on the street or go sightseeing alone at night.
3.Don't place over CNY 200 cash in your purses or pockets , don't carry briefcases or handbags to go shopping at night-time.
4.Do take metro instead of buses on which hidden pickpockets are sitting or standing.
5.Don't walk along narrow or crowded streets.

Indian Food/Restaurant in Guangzhou
By WANHU | 4/10/2009 9:10:10 PM
I have been to Guangzhou only seven times, most of the time with some friends from Malaysia. These friends loved Indian, Middle East and Turkish foods very much. They are good hunters of food. From Turkish lokantasi, South Indian unavagam to restaurants and they never failed to savour the taste and jotted down inside their notebooks. We have been to Delhi Darbar Restaurant near Shangxia jiu, the foods are OK but the service is quite slow. Indian Chef near Beijing Lu is also OK and the service is better. One of the best Indian foods I have ever tasted is Uncle Café is situated at Henjing Commercial Centre, near Huanshi Zhong Lu, about 15 minutes walk from the GZ Train Station. It was introduced to me by Mr Amir, who was a Second Attaché Officer of the Consulate General of Malaysia Office.
Unfortunately Uncle Café is just a small restaurant that cannot accommodate larger group of diners, may 30 persons at one time. Try Beriani with chicken tikka masala, and crispy fried chicken and end up with crispy nan bread.

Know your Yuan
By LAR19 | 3/9/2008 10:58:52 AM
<A>The only time I had any issues of anyone attempting to take advantage of me because I was a traveler was in Guangzhou. In a film shop by the White Swan hotel, I went in to purchase a couple of trinkets that our son had shown an interest in. When I went to pay for them I should have gotten 5 Yuan back but instead got the lower 5 denomonation. I looked at the shop keeper with my hand still extended and the change that she had given me and simply stated boo (no). She looked surprized and immediatedly apologized and gave me the correct change of 5 Yuan. Get to know the currency! Also only exchange your currency at your hotel or bank of China.
