Strolling Through Yuntai Garden｜A Journey into Monet's Painting

Address: No. 801, Guangyuan Middle Road, Baiyun District, Guangzhou (at the foot of Baiyun Mountain) Guangzhou is often called the "City of Flowers," and after visiting Yuntai Garden, I truly understand why. The garden boasts over 30,000 pots of flowers, with different blooms flourishing in every season. On the day I visited, it happened to be tulip season. Walking in felt like stepping into a French Impressionist painting, with the air filled with floral fragrance that softened my mood. The entire garden is designed with a European flair, featuring fountains, stone-paved paths, and vast flower fields. Every step is a photo opportunity, and it's almost impossible to take a bad picture. I chose to wear a white long dress that day, which turned out to be the perfect choice! With the fountain's water droplets, the flower clusters, and the natural light, every photo looked like a magazine cover. At night, the garden transforms into a romantic wonderland with warm yellow lights illuminating the space. The interplay of light and shadow on the flowers, combined with a gentle breeze, made me feel like I was on a vacation in the south of France rather than in Guangzhou. The ticket prices are quite reasonable: RMB 10 for daytime entry and RMB 30 for the evening version, which is approximately HK$11 and HK$33, respectively. Children under 1.2 meters can enter for free, making it a family-friendly destination. Getting there is convenient. I took Metro Line 11 to Yuntai Garden Station, exited at C1, and walked about 10 minutes to the entrance. The path is quiet and easy to find. This place is perfect for when you need a break and want to slow down. Whether you're looking to take photos, enjoy a romantic date, or simply wander alone to clear your mind, Yuntai Garden is full of delightful surprises.
