Guangzhou - New Attractions & Spring Festival
Jan 13, 2012 12:01
guest23142 I have been to Guangzhou before but I read of a few attractions that are new or near the city like:

a) Xiaozhou Village;
b) A warehouse converted attraction with film studio & shops;
c) A river side attraction just opened last year;

Anyone know if these places are worth a visit or any info for them ?

Where can I visit to catch some Chinese New Year mood during the 2 days before Chinese New Year ?

Xiaozhou Village: take No. 468、252、507 busto get off at Xiaozhou Village. No. 86、310、565 are also available.

There you can experience real Cantonese community landscapes. By the way, there are some artists. Unfortunately, the locals start to tear down their houses and build new dwellings. The landscapes will possibly be destroyed.

Info about the village:

Sorry, I am not familiar with the rest two attractions. Can you offer more info about these two places?

GUEST27250 Thanks CHERRY06,

The other 2 are mentioned in a Chinese travel magazine:
It's a row of warehouse-like shops with something on movies included. It gave a website www.tgcmovie.com I think some cinemas there.

The last one is near a river side with some old houses but made beautiful only in 2010

I think both are actually done up in 2010 for the ASEAN Games.

You are welcome.

I checked the link and found it was a wharf called Taigucang Wharf located on the No.124, Gexin Road, Haizhu district.

I am sorry that I still have no idea about the last one.
