About this activity
Escape Guangzhou for a full-day immersion into Shunde's cultural landmarks and culinary heritage. Visit the serene Ming Dynasty Qinghui Garden and wander the atmospheric Fengjian Water Town with its centuries-old architecture, canal boat ride, and authentic Cantonese lunch—all with private guide and hotel transport included.
At 8:30 am, your private guide will collect you from your Guangzhou hotel for a one-hour drive to Fengjian Water Town. This picturesque riverside village invites you to wander its cobbled lanes, revealing centuries of history through its old houses and temples. A traditional boat trip along the canals offers a unique perspective of the town's charming bridges and daily life.
Lunch showcases the world-famous flavors of Shunde, the heart of Cantonese cuisine. The journey continues at Qinghui Garden, a Ming Dynasty treasure (circa 1607) and one of Guangdong's top four classical gardens. Its intricately designed courtyards, pavilions, and reflective pools create an enchanting landscape. After exploring this garden oasis, you'll be driven back to your hotel in Guangzhou, concluding your memorable day.
