Things to do in Heshan

The old street of Gulaowei is full of local flavor, and the authentic fish cakes, fish skin dumplings, and other local delicacies are delicious and affordable. The scenic area combines the original ecological charm of a water town with a variety of activities, making it perfect for friends' outings or family trips. You can easily take great photos, and the experience is fantastic!

Xiqiao Mountain is easily accessible and has beautiful scenery. There are many small scenic areas and a spectacular lion dance performance. From the top of the mountain, you can see a panoramic view of the Buddha statue. It was probably a quarry in ancient times, and there are many relics of ancient stone quarrying.

We did the blue route. It's a climb uphill while tracing a stream, and it was quite fun when it was hot. But don't choose the jungle roller coaster; it's really not interesting. Hmm.

If I hadn't visited in person, I wouldn't have known there was a water town in Shunde, Guangdong, and that it possessed such a rich and charming atmosphere. Unlike the water towns of Jiangnan, this place felt more distinctly Cantonese, and the relatively low crowds made me feel incredibly peaceful.

Chimelong Safari Park offers the chance to see adorable and interesting animals that are not usually seen. The park has clear signage and attentive service, making for a smooth visit.

I think 300 yuan per person is great value for money. It includes a free cable car ride for a panoramic view of the entire park, and a free mini-train ride for a close-up look at the animals on the African savanna – you get to see everything from different angles. We also spent 300 yuan to drive through the park and get a more intimate look at the animals – a very immersive experience. It wasn't the weekend, so it wasn't too crowded. The park staff were very responsible in their explanations. We also ordered a three-person set meal inside the park, which was a bit pricey, but reasonable for the park's price.

A visit to the Ancestral Temple is a must when in Foshan. First, the three daily martial arts and lion dance performances are definitely worth the ticket price. There are also many interesting exhibition halls that will broaden your knowledge. The scenic area also offers free guided tours several times a day, providing additional information. Although the area isn't large, a thorough visit will take about three hours (about an hour for a quick overview), so it's recommended to allow ample time for your exploration.

The exterior doesn't look impressive, but once inside, it's a hidden gem. Small, compact, and exquisitely designed, it's similar to Suzhou gardens. There are many exhibition halls and artifacts to see. I was very satisfied.

It's pretty good, a cozy and charming little place. My child tried pottery making. The price is a bit high, but overall it's okay. Parents who haven't been to similar places before can take their children to experience it!
