Ming Dynasty Guangzhou Maritime Silk Road Navigation Landmark – Pazhou Ancient Tower

A must-visit on Guangzhou citywalk! This Ming Dynasty ancient tower was actually a maritime navigation marker ⚓️ As the only remaining Ming Dynasty tower in Guangzhou, Pazhou Tower has a rich history✨ Back then, merchant ships on the Maritime Silk Road used this tower to determine their route. Standing beneath it, you can almost hear the waves from centuries ago~ 💡 Highlights -【Panoramic View】The tower is 50 meters tall with 9 floors (currently not open for climbing), but you can still capture stunning city skyline views nearby (recommended to visit at dusk for sunset shots 🌇) -【Ancient Style Scenery】Red walls and green tiles of traditional Chinese architecture + huge banyan trees, every photo looks like a classic ancient-style masterpiece (Hanfu-wearing friends, don’t forget your fans!) 📌 Practical Information Address: Near Pazhou Metro Station, Haizhu District Transport: 800 meters walk from Exit D of Pazhou Station on Line 8 Best Photo Spot: Lawn on the south side of the tower (for full tower shots) 🌟 Special Reminder The tower lights up at night, but the surroundings are quite dark, so it’s recommended to go with company~ Drones require prior approval before flying!
