There are also documentaries and video art works, which you can watch while sitting and resting. Tips Remember to bring your physical ID card! You can only enter with an ID card.

Since the Baietan Bay Area Art Center was completed and opened in 2024, Guangzhou has added a new landmark. The entire building resembles a "giant cultural ship", housing three venues: the Guangdong Museum of Art (Baietan Branch), the Guangdong Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, and the Guangdong Literature Museum. The Guangdong Museum of Art has thus formed a new pattern of "one museum, two branches, staggered development" with its Baietan and Ersha Island branches. · [Venue Facilities] 1. Guangdong Museum of Art (Baietan Branch) Located in the eastern part of the Baietan Bay Area Art Center, the museum covers a construction area of 65,000 square meters (excluding public areas) and an exhibition area of 25,000 square meters. It has 21 exhibition halls and a vast public art area. This branch focuses on the research of the development ecology of Chinese contemporary art and international contemporary art, explores international art exchange and cooperation, and strives to become a comprehensive contemporary art museum with international influence, showcasing the achievements of Lingnan culture, promoting the construction of a cultural bay area, and facilitating cultural exchange between China and foreign countries. 2. Guangdong Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum Located in the western part of the Baietan Bay Area Art Center, the museum has 5 floors above ground, with a construction area of 26,000 square meters and an exhibition area of 10,400 square meters. The basic display, themed "People's Intangible Cultural Heritage, New Colors of the Times", is divided into 7 exhibition halls, with an additional special exhibition hall. The exhibition uses an upward-growing "banyan tree" as the main spatial image, integrating the "roots of the nation" into the exhibition context. 3. Guangdong Literature Museum Located in the central part of the Baietan Bay Area Art Center, the museum has 8 floors above ground and 2 floors underground, with a height of 52.3 meters. It covers a construction area of 18,400 square meters and an exhibition area of 5,400 square meters. Based on the positioning of "a product of the times, a palace of literature, and a space for citizens", "a landmark of Lingnan culture, a destination for public leisure, and a meeting room for bay area exchanges", it strives to become a literary base camp for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, integrating collection, exhibition, research, education, reading, exchange, and creative activities. · [Visiting Suggestions] It takes a long half-day to visit all three venues. You can also focus on visiting according to your personal preferences. For example, I prefer intangible cultural heritage, so I visited the Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum first to learn about the intangible cultural heritage of various places in Guangdong, which I found very interesting. The second place I visited was the art museum. It is very large, with a rich artistic atmosphere, and it is also a great place to take photos. Finally, I went to the Literature Museum, especially to see the Lu Xun's Family Exhibition Hall. · [Visitor Information] Baietan Bay Area Art Center ① Tickets: Free (excluding special exhibitions), closed on Mondays (except for statutory holidays) ② Reservation method: Online real-name reservation by venue and time slot. Only a limited number of places are available on-site for those who are unable to make online reservations (online reservations open 7 days in advance, new places are released daily at 18:00) ③ Opening hours: 9:00–17:00 (last entry at 16:40) ④ Address: No. 19, Baietan South Road, Liwan District, Guangzhou (currently no public parking lot) ⑤ Transportation: 800m walk from Exit B1 of Fangcun Station on Metro Line 1/11

This is the "top" platform for cultural and art exchange in the Greater Bay Area! The architectural design is a powerful collision of modern aesthetics and Lingnan cultural elements. Flowing lines are paired with transparent glass curtain walls. Next to it is an extended viewing platform 🏞 Here, you can take in the entire view of Baietan 👁‍🗨 · 🕋The art center is divided into three parts: Guangdong Museum of Art, Guangdong Literature Museum, and Guangdong Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum. It is more crowded on weekends and holidays, so make a reservation in advance, up to 7 days in advance. ⏳The art museum, which mainly features paintings, is the most time-consuming and also the most photogenic place. There is also a projection room here 📽 📖The literature museum mainly focuses on famous authors and their works. The top floor is dedicated to the history of Lu Xun. 🦁The Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum has displays of food, culture, and celebrations. · 📸Photo Spots 📍Hong Kong Street in the Literature Museum: This corner recreates a Hong Kong street scene, with colorful neon light boxes, creating a strong 90s atmosphere. 📍The sculpture of "Walking Man" outside the art museum, a comparison of large and small. 📍The ramp from the 2nd floor to the 3rd floor is also a popular photo spot 📸📸 · 💡Tips 🧥Choose simple and fashionable or literary and retro styles for your outfit. For example, a beige trench coat with jeans and a beret goes perfectly with the art center's atmosphere. ✅You need to make separate reservations for all 3 museums. If you don't count the time for taking photos, it takes at least 4 hours to visit all of them. It's best to enter after lunch and allow plenty of time, as entry is not permitted after 16:30. There are occasional events and activities, such as poetry readings, sharing sessions, and handicrafts. If you're interested, pay attention to the information published on the official public account. · 🎡丨Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center 📍丨50 meters south of Fangcun Wharf, Changdi Street, Provincial Navigation ⏰丨09:00-17:00, closed on Mondays 🎫丨Free, make reservations in advance on the official public account 🚇丨Subway Fangcun Station Exit B1, Greater Bay, Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center

The Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center, inaugurated in April 2024🤩, is a prominent cultural landmark in Guangzhou, China🇨🇳. Situated at the convergence of the Pearl River🏞 in the Baietan business district, directly across from Shamian Island🏝, the center spans approximately 145,000 square meters. It houses three major institutions: the Guangdong Museum🗿 of Art, the Guangdong Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, and the Guangdong Literature Museum. Designed by architect He Jingtang and his team from the South China🇨🇳 University of Technology, the center's architecture draws inspiration from the silhouette of a grand white cruise ship poised to set sail⛵️, symbolizing Guangzhou's rich cultural heritage and artistic spirit. The structure stands 78.5 meters tall, encompassing 11 floors above ground and two underground levels🥰. Visitors can explore a variety of exhibitions and performances within the center. The Guangdong Museum of Art offers extensive fine art displays, while the Guangdong Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum showcases traditional crafts and performances. The Guangdong Literature Museum presents literary works and related cultural artifacts. Admission to the center is currently free, providing an accessible cultural experience for all. In the evenings, the art center comes alive with immersive light shows. The ceramic curtain wall transforms into a massive screen, offering a visual spectacle that reflects onto the Pearl River, enhancing the city's vibrant nightscape🥰. For those planning a visit, the Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center is located on the south side of Changdi Street in Liwan District, Guangzhou. The nearest metro station is🚇 Fangcun Station on Line 1, Exit B1. The center operates from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and is closed on Mondays, except during holidays. This art center not only enriches Guangzhou's cultural landscape but also serves as a testament to the city's commitment to preserving and promoting its artistic and literary heritage😍🥰. #chinatrip #riverview #guangzhou #Baietanartcenter #chinatravel #localguides #historicallandmarks #guangzhou

Folk art is rooted in folk culture and expresses the most simple spiritual demands and life aspirations of the people in the most natural and vivid language. It is the cultural root of the Chinese nation. The Guangdong Museum of Art has specially launched a collection of fine works, focusing on three categories: New Year paintings, wood carvings, and paper cuttings. With the theme of "All in the New Year Dream", the exhibition introduces the "commonality" and "individuality" of folk art to the audience. New Year paintings are one of the representative folk arts in China. They originated from the ancient "door god paintings", developed in the Tang and Song dynasties, and flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties. They are mostly used for New Year posting, praying for blessings and good fortune, hence the name New Year paintings. New Year paintings from all over the country have particularly distinctive styles due to different regions, such as Yangliuqing in Tianjin, Taohuawu in Suzhou, Zhuxian Town in Henan, Fengxiang in Shaanxi, Wuqiang in Hebei, and Foshan in Guangdong. Wood carvings and paper cuttings are also among the folk arts and are widely loved by people. Folk art is not affected by regional differences. People have a high degree of consistency in the choice of subject matter, the shaping of aesthetic tastes, and the expression of thoughts and emotions. Folk art is a kind of beauty integrated into life, created to express oneself, entertain oneself, and satisfy oneself. This is the "commonality" of folk art. "Individuality" refers to the fact that in the production process, folk craftsmen from different regions will skillfully integrate regional characteristics and personal skills into their works. For example, the same New Year painting: Yangliuqing in Tianjin is fresh and gorgeous, while Taohuawu in Suzhou is soft and elegant; the same wood carving: Dongyang is deep and vigorous, while Chaozhou is gorgeous and vivid... All folk arts have symbolic significance for a region: a well-known skill, a set of commonly used colors, and a unique rhythm all make the culture and aesthetics of this land uniquely charming! Thanks to the Guangdong Museum of Art, folk art, which is gradually fading from people's sight, is exhibited with a collection of fine works, bringing a spiritual shock to the audience and making them deeply respectful of the exquisite skills of folk art! It makes people love the bustling and prosperous world even more! Address: Guangdong Museum of Art, Baietan Art Center, Liwan District, Guangzhou Transportation: Metro Line 1, Fangcun Station, Exit B1, 500 meters walk Free opening hours: 9:00–17:00 (Tuesday–Sunday, closed on Monday)

📍Address: No. 19, Baietan South Road, Liwan District, Guangzhou 🚉Transportation: Bus stop: Fangcun Station, Fangcun ① Station, and Fangcun ② Station are all directly accessible by bus Water bus: Baietan Art Center Wharf Subway station: Fangcun Station (Exit B) on Line 1, about a 10-minute walk 👍Recommended: The Footsteps of History and All in the New Year Dream are collections of the Guangdong Museum of Art, including works by famous artists of the Lingnan School of Painting such as Gao Jianfu, Guan Shanyue, Li Xiongcai, and Zhao Shao'ang.

My family was going to Guangzhou for training, so I took my kids with me for two days. We drove from Hengqin to Guangzhou, which is more than 140 kilometers, and arrived at our destination in about an hour and 40 minutes. The highway toll is about seventy yuan. - Since I really don’t want to roast sweet potatoes outdoors in this season, I’ll just go to various museums. I’ve been to the Provincial Museum many times and it’s very difficult to make an appointment, so I’ll do something new this time. - I recommend this hotel Heshe. Haha, the location is a bit remote, but it is very new, the environment is good, the price is reasonable, and breakfast is only 350 yuan. There are the Xinhai Revolution Memorial Hall and the former site of the Whampoa Military Academy nearby, so I went directly to the Xinhai Revolution Memorial Hall to receive spiritual baptism. There were people giving free explanations, and there were quite a lot of exhibits. - In the afternoon, I went to the Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center, which I had arranged in advance, to visit the art gallery and the intangible cultural heritage museum, and to be influenced by art. Some of them were too abstract. I wanted to see the Renaissance exhibition from Europe, but I gave up after repeated consideration. I saved more than a hundred dollars and went home to read my DK Encyclopedia, haha. - The next day, I made an appointment to go to Guangdong Science Center and take my kids to the world's largest science museum, but there were so many people that it was impossible to operate or interact. I don't recommend it, strongly not recommended. It’s better to go to the Macau Science and Technology Museum for a real experience.

White Goose Pond Art Center: Three Venues in One This time, I visited the Art Museum. There are five floors in total. Each floor has several exhibition halls. The first floor occasionally has special exhibitions. You can take photos, but no flash is allowed. My personal favorite is the immersive exhibition section. As soon as you enter, there are large screen projections, even on the floor. It's truly immersive. Note that you cannot bring water bottles or long umbrellas inside. There is a storage area on the first floor. Each floor has water dispensers. Additionally, the air conditioning inside is quite strong, so it's better to bring an extra jacket. Address: 50 meters south of Fangcun Wharf, Changdi Street, Provincial Navigation Metro: About a 10-minute walk from Fangcun Station, Exit B1

The view of the river from outside the Baietan Art Museum is particularly comfortable 😌 There are so many works in the exhibition hall! It's dazzling to look at! Full of artistic atmosphere ✨

Taking the baby to the museum, walk very slowly. This place is really beautiful! Great for photos! Sharing tips for taking an 8-month-old baby to the White Goose Pond Art Museum What should you pay attention to? 1️⃣ If you want fewer people, choose to go on weekdays to avoid weekends. If you can only go on weekends, choose the morning! 2️⃣ Choose a time when the baby is full and well-rested, so it's easier to take photos without fussing. Or bring equipment that helps them sleep peacefully, such as a baby carrier if they like to sleep in it, a favorite toy if they like to sleep with it, or a stroller if they need to sleep in it. 3️⃣ It's really big inside. If you don't plan to use a stroller and want to use a baby carrier, make sure your back is strong enough, otherwise, you'll get tired 😩. 4️⃣ If you want beautiful photos, dress the baby up a bit, put on nice clothes, and for girls with less hair, you can use a headband or hat. 5️⃣ Clear out the stroller in advance or tidy it up to make the photos look better. 6️⃣ The nursing room is on the 3rd floor in a relatively hidden place, you need to ask the staff (the nursing room is quite large but the environment is so-so). There are vertical elevators on the 2nd and 3rd floors that are rarely used. To go to the 4th and 5th floors, you need to ask the staff/security to arrange for the special access elevator, which is a bit troublesome. Only the 3rd floor has a row of seats for resting, but there are not many seats and it's a bit hot. 7️⃣ The air conditioning inside is quite strong, remember to dress the baby warmly!

It is recommended to reserve 1⃣️ day to visit the Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center, otherwise, it's really too big to finish in one go.

Based on the concept of 'Building a Humanistic Bay Area Together', it selects representative projects of intangible cultural heritage from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, focusing on Cantonese opera, martial arts, and lion dance, showcasing the advantages of the region's proximity and cultural affinity, and highlighting the unique cultural charm of the Bay Area. · Guangdong Literature Museum: It features ten main functional areas including the Literature Achievement Display Area, Literature Works Reading Area, Youth Creative Writing Center, Belt and Road International Literary Exchange Center, Popular Literature Exchange Area, Literary Research Area, Literary Creative Integration Area, Public Service Area, Collection Area, and Collection Technology Area, as well as auxiliary rooms. · New Building of the Guangdong Museum of Art: There are 8⃣️ major themed exhibition halls, which are: Frozen Poetry, Urban Chain·Art Experiment Exhibition in the South, New Era Assignment, Touch of the Future, Tide of the Pearl River, Passionate Years, Awakening Era, and Future Garden.

The Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center has only been open for a month! Located at Baietan, Huadi Street, Liwan District, it was designed by a team led by Academician He Jingtang of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. It has a total construction area of ​​over 140,000 square meters and a total exhibition area of ​​40,000 square meters. He Jingtang introduced that the design of the center is based on the concept of "cultural giant ship, time arcade, Etan freehand painting, and Yunshan art realm". The three museums are staggered in height and clearly layered, like a giant ship setting sail, implying that "Lingnan culture rides the wind and waves and spreads far and wide." The center makes extensive use of digital technology, especially through naked-eye 3D, dynamic scrolls and other display methods, allowing children to intuitively understand "The Story of the Walnut Boat" in the textbook or the well-known stories of Su Shi and Han Yu in Guangdong. To welcome the opening of the center, the three museums launched a series of special exhibitions and activities. Wang Shaoqiang, director of the Guangdong Museum of Art, said that nearly a thousand works by more than 700 art masters such as Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong, Lin Fengmian, Guan Shanyue and Li Xiongcai were displayed one by one, showcasing classics of Chinese art, especially Guangdong art, from different historical periods. The Guangdong Provincial Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum vividly presents Guangdong Province’s five items on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, 165 national representative intangible cultural heritage items, and 816 provincial representative intangible cultural heritage items. During the May Day holiday, the center also featured intangible cultural heritage performances such as the Yao long drum dance and Yingge dance, as well as Cantonese porcelain firing techniques and ivory carving.
