Photos from China: Guangzhou, part 4 – the city

The Canton Tower, among the tallest in the world.

The south bank of the Pearl River.

Some of Guangzhou’s modern architecture is spectacular too.

I SAID it’s the Year of the MONKEY!

All of Guangzhou used to be streets like this.

Fresh pork! How fresh? Oh you have NO idea.

Shangxiajiu pedestrian-only shopping street.

I HOPE this was a Cantonese Opera Theatre. I don’t read enough Mandarin to know.

This is black sesame seed paste, which is them made into soup!

Black sesame and cashew soup. Liquid cashew butter. That is all.

A stall selling only Durian fruit. You think they look scary? I crossed the street because of the SMELL.

Fresh chicken! How fresh? Well!

What’re YOU doing here?!

Koala Parking!

A statue of a little boy trying to help his grandpa set off fireworks.

Down this tiny street…

…are little things…

…I’m guessing most people wouldn’t see.

Want to buy a mushroom the size of a coffee table?

The old and the new.

For my first breakfast I tried congee. It’s rice porridge, and mine also had bits of meat and seafood. I admit, I didn’t care for it.

THESE, however, are steamed pork buns. MORE.

WANT.

Want a bullfrog? Yours for ¥28,000!

Please see the Buzzfeed videos below for further info on the contents of my minibar. The green one top left is Get 27. The one bottom left is Bai Jiu.

East meets West.

Oh for God’s sake.

Motorway spaghetti.
