Transportation
1, Hi Shirley,how can I go to my downtown hotel from Baiyun airport (Guangzhou)?
Well,Baiyun airport is located in the suburb of Guangzhou. If your hotel is located in downtown, you can take a taxi which takes around 45minutes to 1 hour to reach and it depends on your hotel location and the traffic conditions. If you are not in a hurry, you can inquire from the airport staffs to find a bus which goes to the nearest area from your hotel. But mostly the case is that some staffs don't know or don’t have enough English skills to tell you. but no worries, you can email me before your trip.
2, Hi Shirley, if I fly to Hong Kong first, how can I go to Shenzhen or Guangzhou?
a. If you go to Shenzhen, you can take the metro to Luohu station(shenzhen), and then take a taxi or metro to your hotel in Shenzhen. And from Luohu metro station, you can take fast train to Guangzhou East station which takes about one hour.
b. If you go to Guangzhou directly, you can take a train from Hong Kong(Hung Hom Station) to Guangzhou East station(2hr's trip), GZ east is located in Tianhe district and you can take metro or taxi to your hotel directly from there.
3, I'm attending the Canton Fair,how to go to Pazhou Exhibition hall?
During Canton Fair time,in case it's not easy to find a taxi, you can take the metro to get off in Pazhou station or Xingangdong station by transferring line 8--depends on which Zone number you need to visit(Zone A,B or C)
4,I am new here and do not familiar with the transportation.Can you give any advise?
Sure. You can take metro or taxi to anywhere you want.If you have enough budget,I would suggest you to take taxi which would be more comfortable and fast.If you are coming to China for first time,you could take metro for enriching life experience which can also save transportation cost but crowed as well
For reference,beneath is the metro map of Guangzhou.Hope will be useful for you.
Food
As I am not use to Chinese foods and don't know how to handle chopsticks,I have to find some special restaurants, any suggestions?
People from different regions with different tastes would favor different foods, like hala food,Indian food,Arabic food,Thai food,,Korean food,Japanese food,etc.I suggest you source from the internet.These restaurants usually have English websites so that you can contact them for the directions.
Shopping
Hi I want to buy some Chinese gifts for my families-something exotic,any suggestions?
I suggest you go to Beijing road or Shangxia Jiu pedestrian, you can find the exotic gifts in those shops definately.
Sight Seeing
I get 2 days off from my business, any tourist attractions that worth visit? I prefer some historical places.
Here, I will give a website for you to study:
For places like Yuexiu Park, is easy to access, you can take a metro to there. If you are interested in Chinese culture,you had better find an interpreter who speaks excellent English and capable to tell Chinese history or relevant legends of the attractions (Try me!).
