Were slightly hangover. ;) Had a late brekky and talked about some bothersome stuff. Got going at some point.
Yuexiu Park
is the largest park in downtown Guangzhou. Covering an area of 860,000 square
meters (212.5 acres), it is made up of three artificial lakes and seven hills
of Yuexiu Mountain; hence the name Yuexiu Park.
So lush, so green, so well tended.
So sad I can not give you an impression of the music - was quite special in itself...
The
Five-Ram Sculpture is one of the most famous structures in Guangzhou. It has become the emblem
of the city. Legend has it that more than 2,000 years ago, the city was a
barren land with people who despite hard work were suffering from famine. One
day five immortals in five-color garments came riding on five rams, playing
their legendary music. The rams held sheaves of rice in their mouths. The
immortals left the sheaves of rice for the local people, gave blessings to
the city and left. The rams turned into stone and the city became a rich and
populous place. Guangzhou got the name of the City of Rams.
Who would expect a Chinese playing the bagpipe?!
Unfortunately the guy to the left insisted on giving it a try to.
Spacey Subway
Back on Shamian Island for a second look around.
Oh these couples - I love them!
A Starbucks with flair!
And again back to the city center by ferry.
Action! ;)
Could be London right?!
Impending doom...
Yes I had to document the loo. Impressive with the control panel and all the functions one could like to use. No I did not try a single one. As long as it flushes I am happy! ;)
