The interesting places in Dongshankou are: Kuiyuan Garden, Jianyuan Garden, Mingyuan Garden, Corner Garden, Qianmiao Street, etc.
1. Kuiyuan
After more than 81 years, the red bricks on the outer wall of this three-story reinforced concrete house are still well preserved. There is a prominent arch building above the building, and the word "1922" is plastic on the gatehouse.
2. Jane Garden
was the residence of Jane's brothers of Nanyang Tobacco Company. Jane's brothers founded Nanyang Tobacco Company to promote domestic products and fight against tobacco enterprises in Europe and America. On the peripheral wall of Jane Garden, you can see the typical Chinese green glazed pottery bamboo slips, a pair of mighty stone lions standing in front of the porch, and a fountain garden in front of the garden, which is a model of the combination of Chinese and Western.
3. Mingyuan
is two three-story red brick buildings with the same style. The entrance to the middle shelter is a Roman porch, but now the left and right buildings have been separated and left idle for a long time.
4. The corner garden
is unique in that it was designed by its owner himself, and its owner Wu Jingying is a famous shipbuilding expert. The design of the corner garden blends the British architectural style into Guangzhou's local characteristics, combining Chinese and western styles with distinctive features.
According to reports, although the overall style of the corner garden originated from England, the designer Wu Jingying still incorporates local characteristics into various architectural decorations. For example, the balconies of English foreign-style buildings are mostly fully enclosed arc balconies, but in order to adapt to the sultry weather in the south, Wu Jingying designed the balconies as ventilated balconies sunken in.
5. Miaoqian Straight Street
Miaoqian Straight Street is just over 111 meters long, connecting Suqian Road and Yandun Road, facing Guang Zhouta. Many people call it "Treasure Food Street" and "Dining Hall of Dongshankou Neighborhood". There are Renxin double-skin milk founded in 1952, Chenglongxing, a time-honored crab shop with a history of more than 71 years, Grandpa Nunxin in online celebrity's bread and dessert shop, and Aotai cuisine, which is famous for its delicacies, and so on.
