Enjoy autumn at Guangzhou Cultural Park.

Guangzhou is truly a city of flowers. In winter, bougainvillea, ceiba, and red holly bloom in large swathes on overpasses and in streets and alleys. The chrysanthemum exhibition at Cultural Park is even more attractive. It is said that this exhibition has been held 65 times. As soon as you enter the main gate, a dragon made of chrysanthemums shows you the vitality of this exhibition. A Cantonese opera competition is being held on the central Cantonese opera stage. Listening to Cantonese opera while wandering through a sea of chrysanthemums is a great pleasure. Cultural Park is not large, so you can explore it thoroughly in two hours. This chrysanthemum exhibition focuses on new varieties, including giant chrysanthemums that are more than a meter tall, climbing chrysanthemums, and ordinary hydrangea chrysanthemums. The small Guangdong-style chrysanthemum shapes are particularly attractive, such as the lion dance chrysanthemum shape and the bonsai chrysanthemum shape. After visiting the chrysanthemum exhibition, you can visit the Thirteen Hongs Museum to see how Guangzhou flourished and declined a hundred years ago. You can also choose a cultural chrysanthemum in the cultural and creative stalls. This is a perfect Sunday.
