Leisurely Walk in Guangzhou Shamian Island

In the bustling city of Guangzhou, there is an island that has been gently carved by the years - Shamian Island. It is like a scroll of yellowed old times, quietly telling the past and present of this city, waiting for every traveler to come here to savor. Stepping into Shamian Island, you feel like you have traveled to an exotic land in an instant. Hundreds of European-style buildings are lined with Gothic spiers towering into the clouds, Baroque carvings are intricate and beautiful, and the arcades of the Vault-style architecture are elegant and atmospheric. Every brick and stone is engraved with the mark of history, and every window has witnessed the changing storm. These buildings, which have weathered a hundred years of wind and rain, have become more and more fascinating under the polish of time, they are scattered all over the island in an orderly manner, contrasting with the lush ancient trees and exquisite gardens, making up a beautiful picture. Find a vintage cafe and sit down, order a fragrant coffee and watch the people coming and going outside the window. Very relaxing. Life is worth it!
