Where to go on the weekend | The polar oceanarium on the Guangzhou Metro

| The polar oceanarium on the Guangzhou Metro. The Grandview Polar Ocean World is located inside the Grandview Mall, and it seemed a bit strange to have an aquarium in a shopping mall before; Walking into the Grandview Polar Ocean Kingdom, it's not as small as I imagined. Instead, I found it to be a great place for taking photos, immersing myself in the blue ocean world, it's really too romantic! ▾ ✅ Photo check-in spots 360-degree panoramic sea tunnel: The transparent glass seabed tunnel makes you feel like you are in the underwater world. Beluga Love: After waiting for about 15 minutes, you can successfully take a photo with the beluga, super lucky, who can resist the adorable 'Tangyuan' baby whale?

Shop Till You Drop! But that’s NOT all!

The Grandview Mall is fun for the whole family. Unlike some malls that cater exclusively to shopping and eating Grandview has tons of other amazing things available for the shopper to do! However, if you are looking to shop, look no further! It has hundreds of stores from designer brand stores to souvenir shops. A skating rink, karaoke booths, indoor rainforest, arcade, Merry Go Round and IMAX are only some of the many attractions in mall. The food options are endless and some of my favourites are the Japanese restaurants on the underground floor. Another cool thing about this mall is that they are always changing the decorations indoor and outdoors. They also have many different permanent exhibitions sprinkled throughout the mall which are nice to take pictures with. One things not to miss: The Lego store!! It’s huge and has so many massive Lego displays. Area to improve: Although the mall is enormous, it’s aquarium is quite controversial. I never visited as I have read stories that the animals weren’t treated well. Location: Corner of TianHe road and Tiyu East Road Nearest Subway Stations: Shipaiqiao Station/West Tiyu Road Size: 290,000 sq.m of retail space

Under the peach trees on the 5th floor, beside the Old Man under the Moon Pavilion, with lanterns hanging high, sincere wishes are made, and drums are beaten to welcome the new. The national style pontoon bridge starts with flowers blooming like a brocade, and the festive red lanterns in the bridge reflect the oil-paper umbrellas. There are also swimming fish lanterns, the Cantonese-style Guangzheng Street... all attracting people of all ages to either stop and watch or take photos. Oh, and there's a not too big, not too small fountain on the 4th floor~ 🌟 Animal interaction, innocently cute There are many fake animals for decoration, but there are also real animals that you can interact with for a little money. For example, the alpaca 🦙 that scared me with its sculpture-like appearance, the quacking ducks, the cute little rabbits... 🌟 Colorful shops, dazzling array What the mall doesn't lack are shops.

Where to take the kids for this National Day holiday? The Picasso Authentic Exhibition in Guangzhou has opened~ While having afternoon tea at the popular place for taking kids, Grandview Plaza, Hurry up and take the kids to see the exhibition~ : Love's Polyphony: Picasso's Authentic Exhibition : Guanji Art Museum Address: 6th floor of Grandview Plaza, opposite to Shandong Laojia Time: Until January 2024, 10:00-19:00, last entry at 18:00! I think Picasso's exhibition is very suitable for children, because Picasso's later works are full of childlike fun and imagination, with simple lines and bold color matching. Picasso said: I spent a lifetime learning how to paint like a child. Because he believes, The child's painting is the most sincere, passionate, imaginative, and unrestricted. Doesn't this resonate with children? The exhibition is very thoughtful, It displays different styles from four periods of Picasso's life, and there are also some face-related art installations for check-in, as well as printmaking and coloring projection painting interactions, which can feel Picasso in 360 degrees. Before going, you can show the children the picture book: 'Talking about Artists' - 'Picasso' It introduces his life and the changing styles of painting that follow the process of life.

Famous scientist waxwork exhibit GZ

Near to the entrance to the Museum of Natural History is the Hall of famous scientists sculptures. It is a new addition to the mall and is apparently the world's first scientist themed waxwork exhibit. The waxworks were made by a famous artist named Zhou Xuerong and are stunningly lifelike. When looking at the sculptures you can barely believe that they arent real people, truly impressive artwork. The depicted scientists are those that have made great contributions to scientific knowledge throughout history. There are some more recent scientists such as Yuan Longping the famous father of modern hybrid rice. The sculptures then go back in history including Marie Curie, Watson and Crick, The Wright brothers, Einstein, Newton, Darwin, Mendeleev, Galileo, Copernicus, Archimedes and many others. If you have an interest in science both modern or historical you will certainly recognise some of the faces depicted here. There are information panels to describe the scientist's most important discoveries and inventions. #staycation #museum #science #art
