Its highest peak, Moxingling, has an altitude of 382 meters and is the highest peak in Guangzhou City. It is said that every autumn, white clouds often rise slowly, turning the mountain into a vast expanse of white, like a veil covering it, thus earning the name "Baiyun Mountain". Since ancient times, Baiyun Mountain has always been a famous scenic spot in Guangzhou. Among the "Eight Scenic Views of Guangzhou" in history, "Chulai Cloud Shadows", "Baiyun Evening View", "Pu Jian Linquan", and "Jingtai Monk's Return" are all located in Baiyun Mountain.

Built during the Guangxu era, Chen Family Temple has a history dating back to 1894 and is also known as the Chen Clan Academy. It is a national key cultural relic protection site in Guangzhou. Located among the tall buildings and with a busy traffic scene on Zhongshan Seventh Road, it was initially built as a communal ancestral hall by the Chen families from 72 counties in Guangdong Province, providing accommodation for local scholars from all over to take the imperial examinations in Guangzhou. Due to its well-preserved and ingeniously crafted architectural features, it was selected as one of the "Eight Scenic Views of Guangzhou in the New Century" under the name "Ancient Temple Resonating with Fragrance".

  5. Yuexiu Park

    one hour

    After the tour, we drove to 【Yuexiu Park】 (Tour duration: 1 hour). Yuexiu Park is also known as Yuexiu Mountain. It got its name because King Zhao of Nanzhao of the Western Han Dynasty once built "Zhaozhou Terrace" on this mountain. There was also a Guanyin Pavilion, so it was also called Guanyin Mountain. It is the largest comprehensive park in Guangzhou. To watch the city symbol of Guangzhou - the Five-Angled Stone Statue, over the years, the Five-Angled Stone Carving has been regarded as the city emblem of Guangzhou, adding much charm to Yuexiu Park. The legend of the Five-Angled Stone also spreads widely.
