The whole street in Guangzhou is a place full of attractions, and I walked 15 kilometers
The first stop is Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street, which is really long.
Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street is one of the three traditional prosperous business centers in Guangzhou, gathering Lingnan architecture culture, Lingnan food culture and Lingnan folk customs in Lingnan culture. The arcade buildings are the iconic buildings of Shangxiajiu, stretching for kilometers, and it is currently the largest and best preserved in Guangzhou.
The second stop is Yongqingfang, which can be reached by walking along Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street. There are many attractions in Yongqingfang.
The Xiguan Yongqingfang Tourist Area has the most complete arcade building group in Guangzhou and the Republic of China-style buildings with Chinese and Western styles. It has a profound historical and cultural accumulation and is a national 4A-level tourist attraction.
The main attractions are Liwan Lake Park, Pantang Wuyue, Renwei Ancestral Temple, Wen Tower, Jiang Guangnai's former residence, Yongqingfang, Bruce Lee's ancestral home, and Cantonese Opera Art Museum.
The third stop is Xihua Road, where you can feel the unique fireworks of Guangzhou. It's a place where locals hang out, very down-to-earth, and the things are cheap and the taste is very authentic.
Recommended food: Beef offal on the pedestrian street, personally think that Xiaolujiang's beef offal is more cost-effective, and Nanxin's double skin milk, Xihua Road's shark fin, the taste is very authentic.

If you come to Liwan, you must not miss Yongqing Fang
I used to think that the old city became very commercial after renovation.
Actually, it can also become more cultural.
Yongqing Fang is indeed a successful case.
It builds upon the cultural heritage of Guangzhou,
without falling into cliches.
It's very pleasant to visit.

--
Almost every tourist coming to Guangzhou will go to Yongqingfang
As a Guangzhou citywalk blogger who likes Cantonese culture and historical buildings
I sincerely hope that everyone will not miss those arcades and Xiguan houses
Although they are not as eye-catching as the internet-famous shops
But they are the real representatives of Guangzhou's heritage and cultural characteristics!
I have specially organized a small and popular cultural route around Xiguan Yongqingfang
Share with everyone!

The current Yongqingfang may be too lively, too many internet-famous shops
If you are interested in Guangzhou Xiguan culture and old buildings

These have relatively preserved more of the original appearance of the buildings
