#discoverchina Hopped over from Guangzhou via HSR! 
🚇: Boarded at Guangzhou East Station. 
Do note that there is only one station to arrive to which is Hongkong West Kowloon station! 
If you are coming from Guangzhou East, do take note that the waiting area is slightly away from the main waiting area! There is a specific waiting area for those departing to Hongkong, is located beside the small shops once you go up the escalator. 
The train ride is really fuss free, is a typical HSR ride that can be found in China, just that we will have to clear the China and Hong Kong Customs together! 
It was about a 2 hour train ride 🚝. 
You can check out how I travelled via HSR in Chengdu/Chongqing 
————————————— 
🏠: our accommodation was in the Tsuen Wan West Area Nina Hotel Tsuen Wan West 
^Hotel has really tall buildings! Look at the view from our room at the 60th floor!
We decided on this hotel as it is connected to 2 malls, which was sufficient for us to get our meals. Tsuen Wan area is also about a 30 mins train ride to the city, which makes staying more affordable compared to places like Tsim Tsa Tsui or Mongkok. 
Tsuen Wan is surrounded by residential buildings, which means there are many eateries, 小店 we can find once we venture out of the hotel! 
—————————————
we explored Hongkong in a more leisure pace this time, given that it’s our 3rd time here! 
Here are a few places we visited: 
Yick Cheong Building [Monster Building]
Tsim Sha Tsui 
Mong Kok 
Nathan Rd [for Neon Lights and Dimsum! ]
Hong Kong Disneyland 
we also took a ding ding tram for the first time! It’s Hong Kong’s cheapest mode of transportation and we get to enjoy Hong Kong’s streets along the way! 
—————————————
‼️we can now use our credit/debit cards for transportation around Hong Kong! Just like in Singapore!
much more convenient for tourists who don’t have a 🐙 card! 
That being said …. A octopus card in Hong Kong, is still
Pretty much needed especially if you are dining in 小店, or visiting shops around the neighbourhoods, they mostly accept only payment via octopus card or cash!! 
However, the town and CBD areas in Hong Kong to accept credit card payments. All in all, getting an octopus card will still come in handy! 
————————————
Hong Kong expenses is pretty much like Singapore if not, slightly more, even though flights to the country for SQ can be a low as SGD320 for a round trip! 
However, I personally still think is worth a trip there , for a different city vibe, the old Hong Kong architectures and of course their food 😋 #discoverchina #travel #couplestrip #thingstodo #familytravel #china #citydaytours #hongkong #disneyland

Resumed my travels in China and this time onwards to Guangzhou and Hong Kong !!
Even though Guangzhou might not have UNESCO Heritage Sites [or at least not to my knowledge 🤨] 
We went on a 8D7N trip for both countries!! Guangzhou truly lives up to its name of wholesale shopping and good food 🤤
I would say my expenditures for this trip weighs lesser compared to Shanghai, due to the costs of flight tickets and accommodations I managed to snag at discounted rates!!

Guangzhou 🇨🇳
Stayed at Fraser Suites Guangzhou, located in Tianhe district, similar to our town area in SG!
If you are going to Guangzhou with family, I will recommend Fraser! Fraser is an apartment like hotel where for a family of 5, we managed to book an apartment that consists of 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and it comes with a full kitchen as well!! It’s linked to a mall with a underground connecting metro: Shipaiqiao station 🚇
—————————
📍: 时尚天河
Located within 10 mins walk from Fraser. It’s an underground mall decorated to resemble old Shanghai! There are many different street food options available, as well as many clothing and handicrafts stores. 
This can be a pitstop for a more leisure paced schedule! As this mall is located within the vicinity of 3 mega malls! 
📍： Shamian Island 沙面岛
🚇: Line 1 or 6, Huangsha Station, Exit F 
A place with great historic significance. Many European styled buildings, each housing a different storefront eg. Starbucks, teaware, vintage clothing and many more! 
We stayed here for about 1-2 hours before heading off! I will only recommend this place if you are into history and photography, if not, this place can be a miss as there is not much activity here!
📍上下九步行街，永庆坊
😋： 陶陶居
They are all located within walking distance of each other!
陶陶居 is one of the famous Michelin dimsum eats in Guangzhou!! Yes, it’s pricey but i feel is definitely worth the try as the food is very tasty!! 
We went to the original shop located in 山下九, the building itself is about 4 stories high! We then headed to 永庆坊, Bruce lee’s home is located here! However we did not manage to explore as it was under renovation. Nonetheless, this area is still worth a visit as there are many cafes and shops around the area!
————-
Above are the few places I went in Guangzhou that I felt were worth the visit!! Guangzhou has many wholesale shopping malls and due to the limited time we have in Guangzhou we chose to loop those out of the itinerary! 
Do note that we also visited Guangzhou in December, hence most wholesale will be selling winter clothing ❄️ #discoverchina #guangzhou #travel #familytravel #myitinerary #china #discoverchina
