Guangzhou

 Like many other famous cities in the world, Guangzhou started its history with a legendary story. Legend has it that in remote ancient times, five celestial beings came from the sea astride five goats, each holding colored rice ears in their hand, As they threw the rice ears around the land, they blessed the region to "never suffer from famine" Although historians believe this to be a legend, over the last 3,00 years, few people from Guangzhou have doubted it. Today, a huge footprint of one of the celestial beings, as a testimony of the friendship between celestial and human beings, can still be found on a rock on the bank of the Pearl River. The statue of five goats standing on Yuexiu Mountain has virtually became the logo of the city, retelling this sensational story again and again.

Entering Guangzhou, one first finds out that the city is actually a world of flowers. Every spring, yaxches and Chinese redbuds burst into full bloom around the city; traveling in Guangzhou, one is likely to encounter a mixture of southern, northern, eastern, and western cultures every step he makes; Guangzhou is a city for common people. The residents in this city all cherish an ordinary concept: People regard food as heaven, Therefore, their love for food seems to be more intense and ardent than that of people from other places in China.

A sea of flowers, a metropolis of gourmet food, a rest house for those who travel far away from home, and a paradise for all. This is Guangzhou.
