i will be travelling to china for the first time and i dont know my way around to the city of guangzhou

Hi, Judy.
Traveling in GZ is very easy and most of the places can be reached by local subway lines, so the transportation there is not a problem.
For sightseeing, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, the Yuexiu Park, the Temple of Family Chen, the Shamian Island and the Pearl River Cruise at night cannot be missed. For other place, if you have extra time, you can visit the GZ Tower, the Guangdong Provincial Musuem, the Huaisheng Mosque and White Cloud Mountain.
