What fun places are there in Guangzhou during the Spring Festival?

When shopping in Guangzhou, there is one of the most convenient and fastest routes: shopping along the subway. The subway runs from east to west and covers almost most of the places to visit in Guangzhou. Taking the subway for a trip is guaranteed to bring you a lot. But I want to remind you that almost every point on this route is a good place for you to spend most of the day. If you want to really go shopping, instead of just scratching the surface like those men who have a hard time shopping, you have to Allow at least a week to prepare.

Let’s start from the east.

Guangzhou East Railway Station

Zhongtai Parkson

The gate of Zhongtai Parkson is directly opposite the East Railway Station and the subway entrance. This is a large-scale building that was recently built. The shopping city has an underground supermarket on the first to eighth floors, hundreds of brands, dozens of specialty stores, and a wide range of shopping and dining options, which is enough for you to shop for a while.

Zhongtai Parkson is a famous department store brand in Malaysia, characterized by fashion and Japanese style. The basement is a supermarket, selling frozen food, snacks, bread, and daily necessities; the first floor is for cosmetics, handbags, jewelry, watches, communication equipment, and McDonald's, which is common in large shopping malls; the second and third floors are my favorite places. Love - women's clothing, is also the busiest place; the fourth floor is for men's clothing; the fifth floor is for sportswear, sporting goods, children's clothing, toys, and books; the sixth floor is for household appliances, household items, and office supplies. The mall also has a coffee shop for resting on the second floor, and a food hall on the seventh floor.

Most of the brands here are popular brands, and the prices are mostly mid-range and low-priced. For example, the cosmetics counters mainly include Yue Sai, Epeilan, and Maybelline, while the larger clothing counters are Qiaobo and EMU. , THEME, Paopao, etc. are among the higher priced brands here. And for more consumers, the biggest advantage here is that they love discounts. The discounts have started since the opening. Today, this brand is 30% off, tomorrow that brand is 10-30% off, and the day after tomorrow, the entire store is 15% off. , and the discounts of the same brand here may not be available elsewhere. Spending money on something is as happy as picking up money!

CITIC Shopping City

Walk along Linhe West Road in front of Zhongtai Parkson. The target is: CITIC Plaza, the tallest building in Guangzhou. There is a less popular one here. But CITIC Shopping Mall, which has an excellent shopping environment, is a good choice if you have a lot of money and are ready to buy some good clothes that will make you stand out. Clothing brand stores are mainly concentrated on the first and second floors. There are glass partitions between the stores, making it feel refreshing and pleasant. The more mature brands such as Baozi, Ma Shilong, and EPISODE, the younger ones such as Color Shiba, OXYGEN, JESSICA, and COCOON from Japan are definitely the favorites of the Hari people.

In addition to clothing brands, there are also high-end consumer goods stores here, such as AIR glasses, with frame prices ranging from 3800-4100; such as golf supplies stores, the owners are golf enthusiasts, the deserted store, come here Most of the people who come here are also enthusiasts, and they start exchanging golfing tips in a few words. A layman accidentally walks into the wrong door and has to leave quickly.

Tired of shopping, there are several good places to eat here, the taste is good, and of course the prices are quite good, which is directly proportional to the reputation here and the land price. Tianzhihe Japanese Cuisine and Golden Years Shanghai-Hangzhou Private Cuisine are both quite unique places.

Tiyu West Station

Teem Plaza

Take the subway and walk two stops west, get off at Tiyu West Station, and you can directly enter Guangzhou. The most popular Tianhe City Plaza. This place is in sharp contrast to the deserted and noble CITIC Shopping City. No matter what time of day, this place is steaming and bustling with people. No matter when you go here, you will enjoy people-watching more than shopping.

"This is the largest and most complete shopping mall in Guangzhou. Opened in 1996, it is the first modern comprehensive shopping mall in China with an area of ??160,000 square meters. Teem Plaza is located in Guangzhou Tianhe Sports Center Directly opposite, the subway exit leads directly to the store, with extremely convenient transportation and wide passages.

The seven-story and spacious building is full of light and airy. It is much more pleasing to the eye than the expensive department stores in the city center, allowing people to fully experience the fun of shopping. ”

This is the introduction in the newspaper.

Let’s start shopping underground. From the subway exit, you can go directly to Jusco Department Store. Jusco is a Japanese brand and has all the basic necessities of life, including food, clothing, housing and transportation. It is opposite Places with escalators are usually large discount stores, with goods piled high and messy like a street market. People think that "you can choose a piece for five yuan" or "a package of ten yuan for big discounts" can only be found on the street. The large slogans you see on the Internet often appear here. It faces the atrium and can be seen from the seventh floor, which is the highest. It has an excellent location and looks very attractive, so this place is always crowded. Master Nai Aunts buy things for free. The Future Market is also one of the most popular places in Jusco. It has a wide range of fresh food and daily necessities, which is very practical. Although the price is slightly more expensive than ordinary supermarkets, young people nearby still enjoy it. I'm used to shopping here. Every day after work, this place is as crowded as the Nongliu Market.

After shopping on the ground floor, go upstairs. There are large and small brand stores on the first and second floors, including clothing, leather goods, etc. There are glasses and cosmetics. In short, there are more products for women. The brands here are mostly mid-range, low-priced such as Baleno, Bossron, and mid-range such as Floren, Helena, and Asana. Because of the large flow of people, this place has a lot of people. The exchange of goods is very fast. There may be different goods today and tomorrow. The clothes you like today may not be available tomorrow. Of course, you may buy them at the regular price today and see them on sale tomorrow, which will make you vomit blood.

The Fashion Pavilion on the second and third floors was newly opened this year. It is a relatively independent space, mainly featuring higher-end brands. Naturally, there will not be too many people in an expensive place. Walking inside is deserted and quiet, and it is different from the outside. The enthusiasm is completely different. Valentino, Lala, Deng Zhida's Yomiuri, and Stima, which became famous at the China International Fashion Week last year and won the top ten women's clothing brands in China

Er San. The Tianmao Nanfang Building branch occupies almost half of the floor area. The merchandise layout and sales methods are the same as those of large department stores. It is also very popular here.

There is also a place on the second floor where you can rest after shopping. A good place to go is the coffee bar on the atrium corridor. There are rows of tables and chairs along the railings on both sides. Looking down, you can see the lobby on one side and the square at the entrance. They are both very lively places, but you don’t feel comfortable sitting here. Interference, whether it is for a heart-to-heart talk with friends or to rest alone, is an excellent place. It gives you the feeling of being quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle and overlooking all living things.

Going further up, there are all kinds of places on the third, fourth and fifth floors. There are many kinds of homewares and furniture stores, including brands and stores. If you want to decorate your home, it is best to come here to check it out. However, compared with various specialized markets, the same goods are much more expensive here, so it is always There are more people reading than buying.

The most noteworthy thing about the cultural gallery on the fifth floor is the several tasteful bookstores, such as the Bide Bookstore. The store is so small that there are not many people except for the books. There is no place to stand, but it is crowded all day long, and it is often talked about by cultural people in Guangzhou. There is no other way. As for the bookstore, it is good to have a place in this Tianhe City where land is precious. There is also that one. CHAT Bookstore, decorated in black and white, has a cold feeling, but is very personalized. It is famous for collecting a large number of high-quality translated works. For example, world classics are usually sold in exquisitely decorated versions. It is a must-visit for high-level classics lovers. at.

The food court on the sixth floor was the first to pioneer similar eating methods in Guangzhou, but now there are many COPYs, and almost every large shopping mall has a similar food court. It's very convenient to have a set menu or a bowl of noodles when it's time to go shopping. However, the taste is getting worse and worse day by day. When faced with a bowl of Yunnan Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles that costs 18 yuan, but is neither similar in spirit nor appearance, I sometimes feel really bad. For consumers who value taste more than convenience, I still feel bad. It is better not to eat.

Hongcheng Plaza

I have said that in Guangzhou, there is usually a cheap place next to a more expensive shopping place. Next to Tianhe City is the lower-priced Hongcheng Plaza.

There are only two floors here, mainly the ground floor. In addition to clothing, shoes and hats, there are also a large number of trendy home accessories. There is no store, so they are sold in the corridor, so the prices will naturally be cheaper.

There are also some mid-to-low-end specialty stores, but most of them are small stores with only store names but no brands. A popular and beautiful dress, you have it, I have it, everyone has it. Buy clothes here and you can match them. It's very sexy, so fashion girls must pay attention.

Dongshankou Station

Nonglinxia Road

This is a street with mixed qualities, but it definitely embodies the spirit of Guangzhou.

The subway exit is at the intersection. After exiting the station, go south until Dongshan Department Store, and go north until Wangfujing Department Store. About one kilometer in between is Nonglinxia Road. The name sounds rustic. It’s a rustic street but the products are definitely trendy.

This street is dominated by some low- to medium-brand specialty stores and miscellaneous brand stores, as well as several clothing streets called "Women's Streets." Compared to Shangxiajiu and Beijing Road, this street seems a bit stingy, but although it is small and well-equipped, it also has everything here. Low-priced sports and leisure brands such as Baleno and S&K, Konia underwear, mid-range white-collar women's brands such as Floren and Baitu... There are all kinds of clothing at various prices and tastes. You can choose what you like and even accompany you. Elderly mothers can buy suitable things here. A major feature of Nonglinxia Road is that there are many shoe stores. There are shoe stores one after another for hundreds of meters on one side of the road. They have both mid-range and low-end products, as well as all fashion and new styles.

Just like other shopping streets in Guangzhou, there are always some alleys worth visiting just around the corner. For example, Sanyu Road next to Wangfujing Department Store. There is a row of tall birch trees along Sanyu Road, which definitely makes people feel cheerful. On this small road less than 100 meters away, there is a row of small shops selling fashionable clothing and boutiques. The styles are different, but they can surprise people one after another. They are either local originals or genuine imported goods. Each one is better than the other. personality.

When you are tired of walking, you can go to a popular western restaurant like Green Garden. If you want to eat something appetizing, you can choose Sanse fast food restaurant and buy authentic Indonesian curry rice, or if you are an authentic For local flavors, go to Choi Kee for a bowl of wonton noodles, and the beef brisket noodles are also pretty good. It is said that Nonglinxia Road is the first commercial street in Guangzhou to implement closed-circuit television surveillance for the entire road. It is said that it will be widened and built into Huaihai Road in Guangzhou. Haha, wait and see what it will become.

Martyrs Cemetery Station

Popular Frontline

This is a real subway mall, just walk straight ahead from the subway station, the whole thing is underground. Just like its name, it is fashionable and trendy. You can find the latest and coolest styles here, and the prices are not expensive. McDonald's, a fully digital radio live broadcast room, gourmet stores from all over the world, famous brand stores, popular merchandise idol stores, and the super large video game city Namco, which is favorite among young people. Young people love to go here. You can often see handsome boys and girls dressed in the best clothes, which is very eye-catching and a great enjoyment.

My favorite fashion fronts are some unique shops, such as Bizhufang, where you can make your own jewelry beads, and Cowboy House, which has a small store but has very cool products. You can always find some good things. Some of them also allow you to enjoy bargaining.

China Plaza

This place is connected with the Fashion Front. You don’t have to go to the ground and you can walk there by following the instructions. Of course, you can also walk out and cross a narrow Street, board the transparent observation elevator and stroll down from the upper floor.

To some extent, China Plaza feels very similar to Teem Plaza. There is also Jusco and a similar food court, but its area is larger than Teem Plaza, with an operating area of ??more than 170,000 Square meters, it is said to be the largest comprehensive shopping mall in Guangzhou. There are also some popular brands, as well as mid-range brands such as SODA, Kulala, and COZZI.

The biggest difference from other shopping malls is that it is known as the most luxurious Chinese Cinema City in Guangzhou. Watching a Hollywood blockbuster here is really the best choice when you are tired of shopping.

There is also a huge electronic screen in front of China Plaza. During major football matches, many super fans will gather here to drink and watch the football. It is really lively and adds to the popularity of this place.

Jinmao Commercial Street

This is a name that may seem unfamiliar to people in Guangzhou, but if you name it by another name, many people may not have been here before. Everyone in Guangzhou knows that it is "Rat Street".

It is said to be a street, but it is actually on the second or third floor of a residential building. The low floors, dense stalls, and crowded flow of people will make you feel suffocated once you enter. When you first enter, you feel that it is no different from a general low-end clothing market, but as you wander more carefully, you will make new discoveries. This place was originally famous for selling fake famous brands. Since the media exposure, it has been rectified and rectified many times. Now there are far fewer fake famous brands. What is different from other places is that there are many well-made unknown goods with classic styles, affordable prices and high quality. Not cheap, worth buying.

It’s just that shopping is enjoyment, shopping is not the only purpose. If the environment is too bad, it’s okay not to go.

Agricultural Training Center Station and Gongyuanqian Station

Beijing Road

Beijing Road! Beijing Road!

The most famous pedestrian street in Guangzhou is a must-see for tourists and a lively place that foreign settlers first fall in love with.

Beijing Road is located in the commercial center of Yuexiu District. Within a few hundred meters of it, there are criss-crossing roads, dense markets, and numerous shops. It is the most prosperous commercial center in Guangzhou. The famous brand stores on the main street of Beijing Road are mostly mid-range brands, similar to those in Teemall and China Plaza. Shopping malls such as Ginza and Taibai Leather City use trendy fashion as their selling point, with low prices, and you can give full play to your bargaining skills.

Ginza is named after Japan’s famous commercial center, and it also follows the route of young Kazakhs, Koreans, and Japanese. The new styles that appear in the latest Japanese fashion magazines will have decent imitations here within a few days, and As long as you can bargain and get it at a price so cheap that you will laugh in your dreams, those pretty girls in their early twenties spend time here whenever they have time. The clothes here are enough to keep them at the forefront of fashion. . However, because they are imitations and because they are cheap, the fabric and texture cannot be guaranteed at all. It is not uncommon for a piece of clothing to fall apart after just one wash. Buying clothes here is all based on experience.

Taibai Leather City mainly sells shoes and bags, but also has a lot of cosmetics. Similar to Ginza, style here is also the key to success. The shop owner definitely says that the leather is genuine, so don’t believe it. When you go to these places, you will see the latest styles. As for the quality, I advise you not to take it to heart.

Just turn into a small street along Beijing Road and you’ll find boutique streets that are popular among boys and girls, such as Yushan Market, Gaodi Street, and Yangzhong Street, selling jewelry, underwear, socks, and all kinds of gadgets. They are both wholesale and retail, and the prices are so cheap that you won’t believe it. A 50-yuan brooch in jewelry may cost 60 yuan a dozen here; a greeting card worth 5 yuan a piece in a bookstore may cost 10 yuan a pack here, or a dozen here. Pack of 10 pieces, exactly the same, this is the benefit of wholesale.

Guangzhou Department Store and Xinda Xin Department Store

There are two famous department stores on Beijing Road. They have a long history and played an important role in the formation of Beijing Road as a commercial center. Although The two major shopping malls located in prime locations are small in area and not trendy enough in layout, but they are still sacred in the eyes of Guangzhou people. According to reports, the turnover of these two shopping malls last year exceeded 100 million, ranking first and second in Guangzhou's department store industry.

The newly built Guangbai New Wing of Guangzhou Department Store on the adjacent Xihu Road makes up for the shortcomings of the original store's small space and lack of fashion, and is very popular.

Changshou Road Station

Shangxiajiu Road

This is actually two sections of the same road. The western section is called Xiajiu Road and the eastern section is called Shangjiu Road. Together they are "Shangxiajiu", which is confusing to outsiders because it does not look like a place name. Shangxiajiu is only a few hundred meters long. The Shifu Road, Shibafu Road, Changshou Road, and Renmin Road that extend from there are all prosperous commercial areas and good places for shopping. This is the old town of Guangzhou. Many time-honored brands are preserved in this area, such as Yong'an Department Store, Heming Shoes and Hats Store, Continental Watch Shop, Trustee Woolen Shop, Jinhua Bedding Store, etc. They all sound old enough. However, time-honored restaurants also have appeal and are often overcrowded.

There are also trendy brand stores here. What’s even more gratifying is that almost all the classic snacks in Guangzhou are gathered here, such as the famous domestic and foreign Wenchang chicken, Qingping chicken, Taotao ginger and onion chicken, ginger milk, double skin milk, Ou Chengji wonton noodles, Wu Zhanji and porridge. If you are tired of shopping, you can go to a time-honored restaurant for a full meal of authentic Cantonese cuisine, or you can have a bowl of sugar water at a street shop. It is very comfortable.

Shangxiajiu also has a large shopping mall, Liwan Plaza. However, there was a dispute between the owners when it was first built. Recently, the power was cut off repeatedly due to non-payment of electricity bills. It is poorly managed and its popularity cannot match that of Shangxiajiu. Extremely popular.

Zhuangyuanfang

This is a small street not far from Shangxiajiu and less than 250 meters long. However, it is so crowded that it dares to rival Beijing Road and Tianhe City. It is really surprising. . It mainly focuses on fashionable cultural items. Students love to come here to buy the latest stationery, toys, idol accessories, etc. It is a small street, but it marks the direction of fashion, which is really strange.

Every holiday, this short street is crowded with boys and girls, earning it the nickname "Bumping Street". It is said that during the Spring Festival last year, due to safety concerns, the management department ordered the business to be closed for three days before the Spring Festival. However, it was later rescinded due to strong protests from merchants. Although this street is small, there are nearly two thousand stalls, each of which is only one or two square meters. When you stroll here, you will find treasures at every step.

(Note: This place is actually very far from Changshou Road Station. If we just talk about the distance, it may be closer from Ximenkou Station, but the advantage is to exit from Changshou Road Station and enter the pedestrian street and walk all the way to the other end. It's very close if you go from one end to the other. Anyway, it's good to be prepared financially and physically)

Fangcun Station

There wasn't much to say at first, but recently a bar street was built here. I heard that there are many middle and low-level bars. Unfortunately, I have never been there. The most prosperous one near here is probably Luju Road, but it cannot be compared with other business districts, so it can only be a prosperous area in this area.

Huadiwan Station

If I remember correctly, Dongshan Department Store opened a branch here. In addition, there is a large furniture mall on the underground floor, and there is also a World of Flowers, Birds, Insects and Fish nearby. , many people from Guangzhou came here specifically to buy it. It stole a lot of the limelight from the original Qingping City...

The Xiangjiang Wildlife World was built east of Yingbin Road in Panyu District. It became the largest in China in an instant A simulated safari park. In this vast space of more than 3,000 acres, there are more than 300 species of tens of thousands of animals. They are separated by various plants, rocks or waters, and live freely in worlds with completely different landscapes. The park is divided into a walking tour area and a car tour area, and the car tour area is divided into the Asian wilderness and the African wilderness. When you take a bus tour, you can get close to big animals or even ferocious beasts. This is the most exciting place! When you meet tigers, lions, and bears at very close range, watch antelopes racing in front of the car, and giraffes leaning against the car window with weird expressions on you as if you were a monster... it’s really fun. There are many performances in each park, including tigers, lions, crocodiles, elephants, monkeys... each has its own show, and there is also an exclusive polar bear ice acrobatic performance, which is guaranteed to excite every nerve in you. The "national treasure" of Xiangjiang Wildlife World is that it has many white tigers and white lions that are extremely rare in the world. After all the readers have seen this, you can boast that "there was a time when the sea was difficult to overcome, except for Wushan, it was not a cloud." As if a world-class animal world is not enough, in recent years, another "Chimelong Nocturnal Animal World" has popped up next to it. From now on, you can visit the zoo day and night. In this world of nocturnal animals, which is known as the world's largest, tourists can take a small train and travel through the foothills of China, South American river valleys, South African plateaus, Indian forests, West African swamps... to explore and enjoy various animals, which is particularly mysterious. In fact, many animals are "nocturnal gods" by nature. They sleep lazily during the day and become full of energy at night, specifically to please night tourists.

The most exciting and value-for-money thing is the world’s largest circus show. In the performing arts square that can accommodate 12,000 spectators, white tigers, hippos, monkeys, puppies, goats, horses... ...all kinds of animals show their special abilities. They work together with the world's top circus performers and animal trainers from various countries to give the audience a night of joy.

This is not over yet. If you stay at the Chimelong Hotel next door, you can continue to be with animals. This is the only animal eco-themed hotel in China. There are two atrium gardens. One side is home to white tigers, and the other side is the home of flamingos. They will extend your joy in the animal world until tomorrow.

Accommodation

There are hundreds of star-rated guesthouses and hotels in Guangzhou. Whether it is a five-star hotel with first-class facilities or a clean and hygienic ordinary accommodation, they all reflect the spirit of Guangzhou people. Warm, thoughtful and people-oriented service concept. Huanshi East Road is the area with the highest concentration of hotels in Guangzhou. Four and five-star hotels are mostly concentrated here. At night, the hotels are brightly lit, forming a beautiful scenery. There are many resort hotels near Baiyun Mountain, at the foot of Baiyun Mountain, on the mountain, and on the edge of the Pearl River. The hotel environment is natural and elegant, surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is a good place for leisure and vacation away from the city. During the day, you can go shopping and gourmet in Guangzhou. , it is naturally the most ideal choice to relax in the suburbs at night.
