2025 Baiyun Mountain Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

Guangzhou is a city suitable for city walk! But first, let's start with taking the escalator up to a hill!! Day 1: Have breakfast at one of the famous Wanton Noodles Stores. I recommend 竹园竹升面 for their springy noodles or 吴财记面家 for the exceptional fried wonton! Then take a stroll at ShaMian Island. Proceed to BaiYun Mountain via metro. Climb to the peak with the help of escalator! For dinner, head to any walking street and munch on Chinese street food! Day 2: Make a reservation with one of the many hanfu stores and transform into a princess of different dynasty. It would take about half a day. The usual will bring you to 永庆坊, but you may find some other places that will bring you to a spot that you wouldn't imagine! For dinner, try the crab rice/noodle specialty! Day 3: Have DimSum for breakfast and head to Beijing road walking street. Visit the famous temple that is said to inspire one of Hayao Miyazaki's anime. Visit 永庆坊 if you didn't. [Tips] - Guangzhou is a place very suitable for city walk, bring comfortable shoes. - Weather in Guangzhou is unpredictable, bring umbrella and shoes cover. #guangzhouguide #myitinerary

At 288yuan/2pax, we got to zipline for the first time at Baiyun Mountain in Guangzhou. Fortunately, the weather was great and the view was absolutely amazing.

Baiyun Mountain is known as a "Fairyland on Earth" because of its cloud-shrouded scenery. In the early morning, a light mist hangs over the mountains, like a veil. At noon, the sunlight penetrates the clouds, casting dappled shadows. In the evening, the glow of the setting sun bathes the entire mountain in gold. Ancient trees tower to the sky, clear springs gurgle, birds sing, and flowers exude vitality. Climb to the top of the mountain for a panoramic view of the sea of clouds and the distant mountains, which will leave you feeling refreshed. The scenery changes with the seasons: mountain flowers bloom in spring, green shade abounds in summer, the forest is ablaze with color in autumn, and the mountain is covered in silver in winter. Stroll along the mountain paths, breathe in the fresh air, and listen to the sounds of nature to forget the worries of the world. This is not only a tourist attraction, but also a great place for self-cultivation.

Baiyun mountain Baiyunshan or Baiyun mountain Baiyun means white clouds because the mountaintop is always covered with white clouds. Especially in winter, Baiyunshan is considered the lung of Guangzhou. There is a lot of beautiful nature on top. To go up, I heard that there is a path to walk (which should be very difficult) or take a cable car (tourists often choose this way). The cable car fee is not expensive. Once the cable car reaches the top, you still have to go up. You can walk or take a car, which also costs a fee. But I recommend taking the car because if you walk, it will be very far. There is beautiful nature to see all the way to the top. I recommend that if you have time (which should take almost the whole day), come and visit. It is one of the most important tourist attractions in Guangzhou. Nature lovers will definitely love it. #Guangzhou #TravelChina #Baiyunshan

#guangzhoutrip My visit to Baiyun Mountain, also known as White Cloud Mountain, offered a breath of fresh air—literally and figuratively—in the heart of bustling Guangzhou. The moment I entered the scenic area, a sense of calm washed over me. Lush greenery surrounded the paths, and the air felt cooler, cleaner, a pleasant change from the city below. I chose to walk rather than take the cable car, letting the gentle uphill path lead me through shaded lanes and scenic lookouts. Along the way, locals were doing tai chi, families picnicked under the trees, and joggers passed with relaxed smiles. The climb was leisurely but rewarding, with views gradually opening up as I gained elevation. When I reached one of the main viewing points—Moxing Ridge—I paused to take in the panorama. Guangzhou stretched out in the distance, its skyline softened by the haze and framed by mountains. It was a peaceful contrast: the stillness of the mountain against the motion of the city. A light breeze moved through the trees, and birdsong accompanied the moment. At the summit, I stopped for a tea break at a hilltop café, sipping a warm cup while watching clouds drift lazily across the sky. The serenity of Baiyun Mountain reminded me how nature can exist side by side with a fast-paced city, offering a gentle reminder to slow down. Leaving the mountain, I felt refreshed—body and mind. Baiyun wasn’t just a mountain; it was a retreat, a local treasure where quiet beauty still thrives above the urban rhythm.

Guangzhou in February left me with mixed impressions. On one hand, the city is a major economic hub with impressive skyscrapers, efficient public transport, and a dynamic urban atmosphere. The Canton Tower at night was a highlight, offering stunning views of the skyline. However, despite its modernity, I felt that Guangzhou lacked the charm and character of other Chinese cities. The food scene is diverse, but some local specialties didn’t appeal to me. The weather was mild, which made exploring comfortable, yet overall, the city didn’t leave a strong desire to return.

Baiyun Mountain accounted for three of the eight views of Yangcheng during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.After the establishment of New China, after the construction of successive Guangzhou municipal governments, Baiyun Mountain has become a large-scale national scenic spot and tourist attraction. The ecological environment of Baiyun Mountain is also very rich. It is located in the tropical monsoon climate zone of South Asia. It has a wide variety of vegetation and has 1,054 species of various plants, including 23 species of rare and endangered plants at the national and provincial levels, such as cytisophila, camphor, and tourmaline. In addition, Baiyun Mountain has a greening coverage rate of more than 95%, which can absorb a lot of carbon dioxide and release oxygen every day, which plays an important role in regulating Guangzhou's climate, purifying the air, and maintaining ecological balance.
