    My arrival in Shanghai➡️ • Stressful Arrival In S...
    I am back in China! This time I will be able to travel around China to explore different cities. Join me as we explore China over the next couple of weeks. First, I am entering into the Chinese mainland from Macau, which is a special administrative region of China. Then we are going to travel via train to one of the biggest cities in China, which is very famous for the Cantonese food.

    Not only big cities, but also Chinese provinces such as Xinjiang, Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai and Yunnan have their own unique style landscapes! The northern, central, western, southern and eastern parts of China have their own living and eating habits because of ethnic, historical and regional reasons. Their dialects, appearance and height are different. China is very large. Welcome to explore!

    Welcome to Guangzhou. You have actually come to this street that I am familiar with. The location you chose to stay is very good. It is a 5-minute walk from the largest business circle in Guangzhou. It only takes a 10-minute walk from Huacheng Square in Guangzhou, where you can see the Canton Tower. In Pearl River, you must go to the teahouse for morning tea and snacks. For lunch and dinner, you can taste authentic Cantonese cuisine. The local culture and customs of Guangzhou are somewhat similar to those of Hong Kong, but there are also a lot of outsiders, and not everyone can speak Cantonese (the first driver you meet is a outsider), so Guangzhou is a mixture. Wish you a happy trip!

      It would probably take at least over twenty years to truly explore the major tourist destinations across China. While studying and teaching at universities along the southeast coast, I enjoyed backpacking and traveled to over 120 towns and cities, mainly focusing on the southwestern region. However, this was just within the provinces of the southwestern region. China is truly vast and diverse, with many places offering only a fleeting glimpse during a brief stay of one or two days. It's practically impossible to visit all the natural wonders and historical landmarks in their entirety. That's why I keep searching vlogs exploring China, yes, only for China.

    Brother, you can get a refund for the wrong ticket. If you miss the time, you can go to the ticket office to change the ticket. Or get on or off the next car. Please make sure to go to a restaurant to eat. Cantonese people like fresh ingredients and cook them on site. This way, the taste will be great, and there may not be any pictures (just make whatever ingredients you buy today). Don't pay attention to the prepared food in the showcase, as it is available nationwide. Recommend food bloggers from the same Germany who may be helpful to you (A German in China)

    few days ago, I was at the same spot at the border crossing as you were. It would have been great to have bumped into you... maybe in the future, somewhere in China! Have a great visit in this great country!
