Guangzhou Introduction:

Guangzhou is the largest and most flourishing industrial and foreign trade center in south China. A China Export Commodities Fair is held in Guangzhou in the spring and autumn every year. Guangzhou has a humid climate, and flowers bloom there all year round; hence its name as the City of Flowers. Main tourist attractions include Ancestral Temple of Chen Family, Flowery Pagoda in Liurong Temple, Baosheng Temple and Sever-star Crags in Zhaoqing, Ancestral Temple in Foshan and hot springs in Conghua.

Guangzhou, known in the West as Canton, is the capital city of the huge province of Guangdong. Guangdong and its residents are regarded with a mixture of suspicion and fascination by their northern counterparts. This intrigue is partly due to Guangdong's fame as a dirty, noisy and dangerous city. Although the area has a fairly buoyant economy, the crime rate here is high and there are multitudes of migrant workers from out of town who hang about Guangzhou on the look out for money. Guangdong people are also famously aggressive and noisy. Many visitors to the city however, find this kind of enthusiasm refreshing and passionate as opposed to threatening and it is this attitude which laid the foundations for the revolutionary beliefs that the city has harbored in the past. Indeed, the revolutionary sights are among the more interesting aspects of Guangdong and the Communist Party Academy is a fascinating insight into the foundations of the PRC's political party.

There is also a colonial side to Guangzhou that has a relaxed and laid back feeling to it. Many of the buildings and churches on Shamian Island are well maintained and rather pretty, especially compared to the high rises and granite buildings on the other side of the river.
