Chen Clan Ancestral Hall was built in the late nineteenth century as an academy and meeting place for members of the Chen lineage from across Guangdong. Its importance lies not in one room but in the extraordinary density of detail covering roofs, beams, doors, courtyards and ridgelines. Dragons, flowers, opera characters and narrative scenes appear in wood, stone, brick, ceramic and plaster.
Shamian is a small, tree lined river island where Guangzhou's scale changes abruptly. Quiet avenues and limited traffic surround former consulates, banks, churches and residences that recall the district's role in foreign trade. European influenced architecture now sits among banyan trees, gardens and ordinary neighbourhood life.
Guangzhou’s historic hill park contains lakes, Ming walls, the Five Rams statue and Zhenhai Tower.
