✅ Travel tips
▪️ First, you can go to Xiguan Mingji Rice Noodle Roll Shop, a forty-year-old brand, and order a signature fresh shrimp rice roll, paired with a box of VitaSoy original soy milk, both nutritious and delicious. Indeed, an old brand's breakfast should be matched with VitaSoy soy milk, also an old brand.
▪️ The rice noodle roll's skin is very thin, fully absorbing the savory sauce, and a slurp is full of flavor. VitaSoy soy milk is still that familiar soy taste, silky smooth, leaving a lasting impression. Guangzhou's down-to-earth breakfast is really worth experiencing, to feel the small beauties in life.
▪️ Start strolling slowly from Longjin West Road, where you can have a distant view of Litchi Bay from Longjin Bridge, and nearby there are attractions such as the painted boat cruise, Wentan, and the antique city to check in.
▪️ Although Liwan Museum is not large, it is worth a visit to learn about the history and culture of Xiguan mansions, Xiguan cuisine, Cantonese opera celebrities, calligraphers and painters who lived in Xiguan, and the historically famous Thirteen Hongs.
▪️ Liwan Lake Park features Lingnan style with pavilions and towers nestled among green waves and trees, where you can choose to take a boat tour of the lake.
▪️ There are Cantonese opera performances at the Liwan Grand Theater almost every day.
▪️ Pantang Wuyue is a 900-year-old ancient village with many interesting shops hidden in its alleys, such as bookstores, handicraft workshops, and trendy culture experience halls, etc., where you can check in and take photos while leisurely strolling for half a day.
