Guangzhou has a museum that I've been to and would like to visit 100 more times!

Smell the aroma of herbs while touring a free 4A-rated museum. This should be the most health-rejuvenating city walk route in Guangzhou. A completely underrated museum with few people and beautiful scenery. You can learn about many Chinese herbal medicines, and also check out the stunning Lingnan ancient gardens. - More than 1,300 kinds of Chinese herbal medicines are planted in the garden, as if traveling to the scene of the "Compendium of Materia Medica"! The legendary "Gelsemium elegans" and "Antiaris toxicaria" are also displayed here! I've only heard of them in martial arts dramas🤣 Every time I come here, I gain a lot of knowledge. The plants here are full of vitality in spring. Come and feel the greenery and fragrance of flowers. - 🌴Must-see spots in the garden: 1️⃣99-meter giant relief wall: Depicts scenes such as Hetu Luoshu and Shennong tasting herbs, immersing you in 7,000 years of traditional Chinese medicine history in a second. 2️⃣Wang Lao Ji Herbal Tea Museum: Learn about the history of herbal tea. 3️⃣Lingnan Pavilion: The development history of Lingnan medicine. 4️⃣Wolongtan: Pavilions and pavilions on the lake. 5️⃣Gelsemium elegans: The "culprit" of Shennong's poisoning from tasting herbs. The museum spent 3 months to find its true form. 6️⃣Antiaris toxicaria: The sap is highly poisonous. 7️⃣Bagua Garden: Display of raw materials for medicines and traditional Chinese medicines. - ⚠️It is recommended to bring mosquito repellent and wear light-colored clothes for better photos! You can play for 2-3 hours; - 📍Location: Shennong Caotang Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine 🚌Transportation: Take subway Line 3 to Meihuayuan Station Exit B, then take a taxi for 3 km, or transfer to bus 791 and get off at "Baiyunshan Chinese Medicine Factory". 🎫Tickets: Free ⏰Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00-17:00 (closed on Mondays);
