Rafting is one of the main attractions at Gulong Gorge, alongside glass bridges and cliff-side rides.

If you are visiting Guangzhou and planning a trip to Gulong Gorge (古龙峡), let me save you a lot of money, confusion, and unnecessary risk. Many first-time visitors to Guangdong mistakenly assume that every scenic area requires a guide. In reality, places like Gulong Gorge function more like outdoor amusement parks than culturally interpretive destinations.

After years of working in tourism in South China, I honestly believe that booking a “private Gulong Gorge tour” through Tripadvisor, Viator, or their reseller platforms is one of the least cost-effective travel decisions you can make. Especially if the listing is operated by a private individual rather than a properly licensed transport company.

Are you planning a trip to Shunde, the UNESCO City of Gastronomy? If you are searching for Shunde food recommendations on social media, you might be walking straight into a "tourist trap." As a long-time curator of professional culinary routes in Shunde, I have watched the food scene transform. While platforms like Instagram, YouTube, TikTop and Little Red Book(Xiaohongshu) are flooded with "must-eat" viral spots, there is a hidden reality every international traveler needs to know.

On summer days, you may see some sales standing in the street, encouraging you to try their “free” beauty products by giving you a little fan as a present. Please be aware this may be a trap when you follow one of the sales to experience the beauty treatments. As they claim to help checking your account balance by inserting your card into the post machine, a hundred Yuan maybe taken out from your account. Some of those beauty salons may even force you to buy their products before you can leave. If you come across one of these sales, please ignore and be careful when using your credit card! Have a safe trip in Guangzhou.

More than 5,000 kilograms of oysters are consumed in Guangzhou a day, Guangzhou-based Yangcheng Evening News reported. Oysters and beer are brand dishes for many restaurants in the southern metropolis where all types of seafood are part of the diet. Oysters, can be said to be welcomed by the majority of diners, but oysters are always mixed with a large number of flavors of garlic cooked together, the enemy is fresh, it also gives a lot of bad business to profit space.
