Wen/Wang Xi
The train is about to arrive at Zhujiang New Town Station, please get ready in advance, and pay attention to the gap between the train and the station when you open the door.
When I stepped on the platform, I saw that my watch was exactly 11 o'clock. As long as I avoided the rush hour on weekdays, Metro Line 3 was not so scary. We walked to the exit hall and looked around. Four exits were distributed in four corners. Exit A is the Customs Building, exit B is the American Consulate General in Guangzhou, exit C leads to Guangzhou's new landmark "International Financial Center", and exit D is seamlessly linked with the Spring Plaza of Gaode Land. These famous names are loud and clear, and they can easily hold up the most modern life in Guangzhou. Zhujiang New Town is the CBD of Guangzhou. Every building here is an office building, among which the International Finance Center and Gaode Land are the two most densely populated buildings. The underground passage at exits C and D can pass through Huachenghui Square, where there are so many fast food, simple meals and milk tea snack bars that it seems like an appointment. If you come for dinner, you will bump into waves of white-collar workers working nearby. In fact, I envy people who work around here. They can change to different restaurants and enjoy different dishes 31 days a month, and they can still eat very contentedly. Let's go to exit c this time.
we walked along the underground passage to the international financial center, which is what the locals call the west tower. Walking through Guojin Xintiandi, this is the Guangzhou Friendship Store. One of the established stores in Guangzhou is the earliest listed company in the domestic department store industry. All right, go in, follow me and catch this elevator. Sure enough, it is crowded with people, and the restaurant here is also one of my favorite old tea houses. Its geographical location is really convenient, so I prefer to bring my friends here whenever they come. It's time for you to condescend. What morning tea do you want at this time? When I first arrived in Guangzhou, I also had such doubts. In fact, modern Guangzhou people drink tea not only in the morning, but also until two o'clock in the afternoon. Although it is a working day, it does not hinder the enthusiasm of Guangzhou people for drinking tea. There are people of all ages. Look at the uncle with delicate hair over there, coming alone, waiting quietly while reading with a newspaper. A little farther away, a group of people are all young people. They look like old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time. They just stand there chatting without sitting. The pastry chef in white and white hat over there made durian crisp on the spot, pinched it gently, inserted it into a curved neck, and the lifelike swans stood neatly in a row. A nearby child watched it for a long time, gently took his mother's hand and said, "I want to eat this." We are the 27th, and there are three tables ahead, two tables and one table, "27th!" Hey, it's our turn. Let's go in. There is plenty of time today. I want you to listen carefully to the bowl-washing ceremony. Bowling means washing cups. Guangzhou people pay attention to chopsticks, cups and bowls, and they must be washed by a round of tea to eat safely. You've already tasted it. Although it's called tea, tea is not the point, but snacks are. Tight Q-bomb shrimp dumplings, a big fresh shrimp wrapped in a thin crystal skin, the delicious chicken feet deboned at the first sip, the seafood red tea was waxy and crisp, the authentic fish, shrimp, lard residue boat porridge was super rich, the roast goose skin was crisp and tender, and you could still hear a click when you bit it. Do you feel it? There's another signature dish that I can't get tired of eating, "Cheese glutinous rice chicken". The combination of Chinese and western styles is not inconsistent. The milky cheese with the flavor of mushrooms and salted egg yolk should satisfy your magical taste buds' n wishes at one time. I guess, you should still have room, so finally, a cage of quicksand bags and a bowl of authentic double-skin milk. Is that enough? It seems that you have finished eating, so let's get up.
Walk out of the Guojin Center, next to Huacheng Avenue, which can be said to be the central axis of Guangzhou and the largest green pedestrian zone in the urban area. If I can, I really want to abstract Huacheng Avenue into a 3D picture for you, so that you can see more clearly that it is a park on the surface, but the underground is the most prosperous business district in Pearl River New Town. Hundreds of restaurants and online red shops have attracted countless trendy young people to visit here.
let's go south along huacheng avenue. You should see it from a distance. On the other side of the river ahead, the graceful figure is double-curved inward, and 24 steel columns are twisted counterclockwise. This is probably the so-called slimming. You don't have to go there. This is the best viewing place and photo-taking point of Xiaoman waist. Give me your mobile phone and take a picture for you, which is in the same frame as this moment, leaving the skylight just right. Ok, don't forget to put away your mobile phone. Look, the irregular geometric building on your right, yes, it is the one with black, white and gray tones. It is the Guangzhou Grand Theatre, which has been rated as one of the top ten opera houses in the world. Did you find it? It doesn't have any vertical columns or walls, and the whole is twisted and inclined. I have done my homework. It is said that the Grand Theatre has 64 faces, 41 corners and 114 ridges. Let's go forward and have a look. Three or two teenagers dressed in black and white are posing for photos. It's true that this design is not difficult to produce blockbusters. You are also excited. Don't worry, take a good shot, I'll wait for you.
Come on, now let's go back to the other side of Huacheng Avenue. Opposite the Guangzhou Grand Theatre is the Guangdong Provincial Museum. Large mysterious black and faint red are its background color, plus the neat square shape, is it like a treasure box? Through the long iron fence, you can enter the museum smoothly by showing your reservation information and swiping your ID card. There are six floors here, and the transparent light divides the space into various levels, which is very chic. I heard that the design concept of the Treasure Box Museum comes from the Guangdong tradition of ivory ball, which is also called ghost ball. The production process is very complicated. The craftsmen carved ivory into a ball, hollowed it out layer by layer, and deepened it layer by layer, with flowers and landscapes attached to it. "Amazing craftsmanship!" Does this word also come to your mind? The information desk on the left has a free explanation schedule, and on the right is the bag storage office. When it is ready, we will start the treasure hunt. I'm used to putting things down and going straight to the "Ocean Exhibition Hall" on the third floor without saying anything. The blue light gently surrounds the surrounding marine life, specimens, bones, pictures and images, blending in the blue. Go in and have a try. Will you feel like swimming with the fish? Close your eyes, feel the natural rhythm of the sea, and your mind will become clear. The last time I came with a friend who loves drama, he said that it reminded him of the legend of the blue sea, and he suspected that he would become a mermaid if he opened his eyes again. You can also have a try. Next to the marine exhibition area is the dinosaur exhibition. The scene is lifelike and the three-storey giant dinosaur fossils are spectacular. This time you may think of the movie Jurassic Park. Quietly tell you the best photo spot, aim at the angle in the atrium of the ocean exhibition area over there, and you can record the moment when the ocean and dinosaur fossils are born. Under the blue is a signal from ancient times, and the two styles merge at one moment. Would you like it?
it's a little tiring to walk around. There is a natural place for rest, physical, mental and spiritual. Come with me. Go out of the museum and return to Huacheng Avenue. This time, we will go north. The Guangzhou Library is next to the museum. Its outer wall is very special, and the cement-gray stone wall is uneven, which looks like a layered book from a distance. Through the security check, you can walk into the glass door, and when you look up, you can see that there are five floors inside. The insulating glass lighting design of the hall makes people feel that the whole library is very bright. There are always many people here, and the study area on each floor is full. Shh, listen carefully. It's quiet here, only the sound of turning over books and banging on the keyboard. It's like going back to the university and filling the library with students preparing for the exam. Walk slowly to the elevator. Let's go to the Social Science Zone 1 on the fifth floor. There are really comfortable sofa seats here. A few people are sitting on the soft sofa, reading by the window, and the warm sunshine is coming through the window. You deserve a full and lazy afternoon. I like to stay here until the music starts to remind me of the closing time at five o'clock. Look, the students who haven't finished writing are anxious to write a few more words, then pack up and leave in order. At this time, the sun is also preparing to go down, and it doesn't feel so hot to walk out of the library.
Go further north, not far away is K11 Shopping Mall, which was newly opened a few years ago, where art and fashion coexist. It is also the highest-storey shopping mall in Guangzhou, with two floors underground plus eight floors above ground and ten floors * * *, each with a different theme layout and online celebrity shooting point. I want to take you to the eighth floor, where there is my favorite Italian restaurant. Let's sit outside and wait. When the moon and lights are all on, the bustling night scene of Guangzhou CBD will belong to you, and the East West Tower of Guangzhou can also have a panoramic view. There are not many seats here. Almost every table is filled with sweet couples enjoying romantic candlelight dinner. The evening breeze caresses you. You can smell the rich smell of black truffles floating in the air. Oh, it turned out to be a black truffle pizza with three kinds of cheese, which is fragrant but not greasy. I would like to suggest that you have another bite of cucumber mojito, so that the unique fresh taste will bloom cool. It is very suitable for the hot summer in Guangzhou.
Walking back after dinner, it is still Huacheng Avenue. The wind at night is also cool, so more people come out for a walk. The old people and children are out, and the tourists watching the night scene are different from the daytime scene, which is more like a lively park than the carved Huacheng Avenue. It's time to go south this time. Lights are flashing on the outer walls of high-rise buildings on both sides of Huacheng Avenue, which always reminds people of the shocking scene during the light show. Looking at the top of Guang Zhouta on the south bank from a distance, we can see that the Ferris wheel is slowly rotating, which adds a little agility to this small waist. When you notice the increasingly dense crowd around you, children running, mobile vendors selling transparent balloons, photographers carrying tripods to take pictures of night scenes, and couples walking hand in hand, you will know to go to Huacheng Square. In the evening, the Pearl River New Town is not as prosperous as it was in the daytime, and it becomes popular, just like an office worker who takes off his work pressure after work and finally finds his own peace at night. Look at the time. It's past ten o'clock. At this time, the subway flow is also reduced. It's not crowded. You can go home. Looking at the photos taken today on the subway is enough to send friends for several days, right? Ins style, artistic style, food, history, night scene, and themes are also classified. Let's start choosing pictures.
