The plot where "White House" is located was originally the "Several Red Pavilion" restaurant built by Liuhuahu Park to solve the employment of educated youth returning to the city. In 1992, in order to meet the catering service demand of the former Canton Fair, the "Several Red Pavilion" restaurant was transformed into a "White House" with European classical architectural style. It has become an important scenic spot and landmark building in Liuhua Lake Park, which blends with the landscape and water color of the park and echoes the surrounding garden buildings. 16 years ago, Tangyuan Restaurant officially entered the business.

after the renovation of Liuhua Lake Park last year, Tangyuan Restaurant was closed at the expiration of the contract according to the plan. The park management department revealed that after the closure of Tangyuan Restaurant, it was planned to transform the "White House" into a Guangzhou Garden Museum or an Expo Hall, specializing in the exhibition of outstanding works of Lingnan gardens. The surrounding green space will be built into an open outdoor exhibition garden, with supporting leisure facilities. At present, the relevant departments have carried out the preliminary work of museum construction, and included the project in the 215 urban construction project library.
