A free spiritual haven in Guangzhou where you can spend a whole day

A free spiritual haven in Guangzhou where you can spend a whole day🌞 Guangzhou has many parks, but Sculpture Park is one of the most unique and niche! - As the name suggests, the biggest feature of Sculpture Park is its sculptures. It is the only sculpture-themed park in Guangzhou and the largest in China! The park has mountains, water, and a large lawn where you can camp and roll around on the grass. It's a great place to relax and enjoy the sculptures on a weekend. - The park is located in Baiyun District, but it is actually between Yuexiu Park and Luhu Park, so it is not far from the city center. - The sculptures cover a wide range of themes, making it a sculpture version of the Guangzhou Museum. They condense over 2,000 years of Guangzhou's culture and history. There are grand altars that tell the history of the Nanyue Kingdom, works that depict the life of Guangzhou's citizens, modern sculptures of urban men and women, and even statues of celebrities like Michael Jackson (some people even leave flowers at the statue). - The sculptures are very expressive, like frozen dances, and you can feel the life force bursting out of the stone. - My favorite sculpture is "The Glory of the Ancient City". The giant soldier holding up a golden seal stands on an altar like Atlas holding up the sky in Greek mythology. The surrounding sculptures are based on relics from the Nanyue Kingdom, creating a mysterious and sacred atmosphere. - ✅Guangzhou Sculpture Park 📍No. 545, Xiatang West Road, Baiyun District (navigate to the North Gate) ⏰Opening hours: 06:00–22:00 🚇Xiaobei Station, Line 5 (take a bus or ride a bike for about 2 km) 🅿Parking lot at the North Gate: CNY 5 per hour for the first 3 hours, limited parking spaces 🌳Lawn opening hours: 9:00–18:00 on weekends and public holidays - 🚶‍♀️Route with no backtracking: North Gate of Sculpture Park (most sculptures are here) 👉 Walk east 👉 The Glory of the Ancient City (a stunning statue of a Nanyue soldier) 👉 Yunyi Lake 👉 Guangzhou Style Street 👉 Sculpture Museum (Michael Jackson statue is nearby) 👉 Large lawn 👉 If you want to continue hiking, go to Fei'e Ridge and exit through the East Gate 👉 If you don't want to hike, walk west and return to the North Gate - 💡Nearby attractions Baiyun Mountain, Sculpture Park, Luhu Park, and Yuexiu Mountain are all connected by the Cloud Path, so you can visit them all if you have the energy. - 🍚Nearby food Not far from Xiaobei, you can go to Baohanzhi Street for Xinjiang cuisine. -
