Recorder: Ren Guorong Date: January 23rd, Tuesday Weather: 3~8 degrees, overcast with sporadic light rain, light breeze, the coldest day in Guangzhou since entering the twelfth lunar month this year Dress: Winter clothes, wool sweater + woolen coat or thin down jacket Cost: Free for the park, 10 yuan for Zhenhai Tower Guangzhou Museum. Having avoided the severe cold weather in the north, I came to Guangzhou, only to encounter the coldest weather since the beginning of winter here. A friend said that they were still wearing single-layer clothes a few days ago, but today they have to wear down jackets. Fortunately, the clothes we wore from the north did not need to be changed, and they were just right for this weather! This morning, I arrived at Yuexiu Park, where the entrance is decorated for the Spring Festival Lantern Festival, creating a festive atmosphere! Yuexiu Park is the largest comprehensive park in Guangzhou. Entering the park gate, you are greeted by a huge flower basket symbolizing 'attracting wealth and good fortune', indicating a new year of rolling wealth and happiness! The paths in the park are newly decorated with various shapes of flowers, making one exclaim, 'This is indeed the City of Flowers!' The highest point in the park, Zhenhai Tower, has stood on Panlong Hill in Guangzhou since the early Ming Dynasty, enduring over six hundred years of vicissitudes, and is a landmark of Guangzhou. If there is a city that condenses its thousands of years of history into existing ancient buildings, which building can evoke the local people's memories of Guangzhou's history? Zhenhai Tower is undoubtedly the one! Zhenhai Tower is known as the number one scenic spot in Lingnan. The tower is five stories high and is shaped like a 'tower in the form of a building, and a building in the shape of a tower'. It was built in the thirteenth year of the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty (1380) by Zhu Liangzu, Marquis of Yongjia, originally named 'Wanghai Tower', and later renamed 'Zhenhai Tower', symbolizing the power to guard the sea. Zhenhai Tower is the most intact, most imposing, and most ethnically characteristic ancient building in Guangzhou, standing 28 meters high and 31 meters wide, with five stories. The first and second floors are built of red sandstone strips, and the third floor and above are brick walls, with a unique and simple exterior. In front of the tower stand a pair of two-meter-high red sandstone lions, carved in the Ming Dynasty. From the top of the tower, one can see the Pearl River and Baiyun Mountain. In 1956, it was converted into the Guangzhou Museum. To understand Guangzhou, one should start from Zhenhai Tower. Stepping into Zhenhai Tower, the history of Guangzhou unfolds layer by layer before your eyes: as early as the Neolithic Age, ancestors thrived here; during the Qin and Han dynasties, the Nanyue Kingdom was established here, marking the first major development of Lingnan; in the Tang and Song dynasties, Guangzhou became a major port in the East, attracting foreign ships and merchants; with the arrival of the 'Age of Exploration', Ming and Qing Guangzhou became an important commercial port, and Canton was once seen as a symbol of 'China' in the eyes of Westerners; in modern times, Guangzhou, being at the forefront of adopting Western culture, became the earliest window to the West in the south of China; the brave and fearless people of Guangzhou turned this ancient city into a heroic city. Over thousands of years, Guangzhou has added a colorful and profound chapter to the historical scroll of Chinese civilization. At this moment, standing atop the ancient landmark, listening to the history of Guangzhou, one feels warmth and respect for this city! The Ancient City Wall of the Ming Dynasty It is the only remaining section of the Ming Dynasty city wall in Guangzhou and is also the oldest existing city wall. It was built by Zhu Liangzu when he was stationed in Guangzhou in the early Ming Dynasty, and it has a history of more than 600 years. This section of the wall is a historical heritage of Guangzhou's city walls and, together with Zhenhai Tower and the bell tower behind the Wuxian Temple, is considered one of the three major ground relics of early Ming Guangzhou. The cannons in front of Zhenhai Tower Square have now become a scene for script murder games. The Five Rams Sculpture The Five Rams Sculpture stands on Muke Hill in the park and is a key cultural relic protected by Guangzhou. It was built in 1959 by three sculptors Yin Jichang, Chen Benzong, and Kong Qiuchuan. The main ram holds its head high, with a grain in its mouth and a smile in its eyes, while the other four rams surround it, either playing or grazing. The rams vary in size and posture, with beautiful shapes, and have become the symbol of Guangzhou city, which is also known as the City of Rams. Due to time constraints, I only visited the above, but I already have a general understanding of the history of Guangzhou!

I made a special trip to see the Guangzhou Yuexiu Auntie lanterns that were previously criticized for being ugly. After several repairs, they now look quite comfortable to the eye. To be fair, the front view is better than the side view. Additionally, I took the kids to many places, we saw the glowing whale ocean, poetry congress, Jurassic world, and so on. All were dreamy, beautiful, and very creative! After the Lantern Festival, these lanterns will be removed one after another, leaving behind photos to commemorate.

I saw the lantern festival in Guangzhou for the first time, and it really has a strong festive atmosphere~ The place is also packed with people~ The various lantern designs are so impressive! If you're looking for a place to take the kids during the Spring Festival, this is a great choice. 🧧Prosperity Fills the Home The overall style is grand and festive, incorporating various Cantonese cultural elements, symbolizing good fortune and luck in the Year of the Dragon. 🍊Great Fortune The lantern installation is adorned with 100 golden oranges, symbolizing a house filled with gold and silver, and great fortune. The branches have 11 parts representing the '9+2' 11 cities of the Bay Area, with hopeful expectations for a bright future. 🌼Floral Beauty of Guangzhou The lantern set features the goddess of the flower city as the main subject, creating a blend of characteristic animals and plants from Yuexiu Park, and presenting a beautiful picture of harmony between humans and nature. 🐲Dragon Soars in Prosperous Times, Blessings Fill the City of Rams A 100-meter-long colorful dragon lantern uses lighting and shadow techniques to create a series of dreamlike scenes. Lantern Festival Dates: February 2nd to March 4th Lighting Time: 18:00-22:00

There are really a lot of lanterns in Yuexiu Park, there are several lantern corridors, many of which are made from children's drawings. They are not as complex as in previous years, relatively simple, the best looking are still the main entrance and the large lantern groups on the lake, such as the ocean-themed ones, the popular beauties, and that long dragon is still very shocking, the world's unique Chinese dragon soaring into the sky!

In addition to the common mountain climbing, amusement park, Zhenhai Tower, swimming pool and stadium, it is located next to Yuexiu swimming pool, which is rarely known to the public. After entering the main entrance, walk to the right for about ten minutes, and you will find this courtyard with a strong Korean style. It cleverly integrates ethnic customs and is very suitable for wearing ethnic costumes, Hanfu, horse face skirts, etc. for photo check-in.

"Why seek a quiet place far away, when a beautiful orchid garden is enough to hold you?" Orchid Garden, a place I visit seven or eight times a year, whether it's sunny or rainy, it has its unique charm.
