Guangdong Museum — Attraction in Guangzhou City

First of all, visitors have to book the ticket one day in advance. If you are a foreigner, you must show your passport. For me,I did not book because I did not know the booking details, so the officer asked for my passport and the air ticket to prove that I was from other country to give me a favor for the visitting. Although many people lined up, it did not take a lot time until my turn. Although I visitted on the weekday, there were so many people because it was during the school break.

Second, the office hour is between 9.00 am to 5.00 pm. There are many exhibitions on many floors so it takes a lot of time to see all exhibitions. Pls make your plan.

Third, the display explanation is also written in English so the foreigners would understand the stories along the exhibitions.

Forth, the toilets are clean and they are enough for visitors.

Fifth, I did not see any sign board for no photoes so I though visitors were allowed to take any photoes at any halls.

Lastly, it depends on each tourist's interest. If you would like to know the history about Guangdong, it would be a good choice.

PS. Guangdong Meseum is located near Guangzhou Library and Canton Tower so visitors can spend a long time in this area. It is nice both day time...

There are two separate buildings. The building which housed the original National Sun Yat-sen University became the Lu Xun Memorial Hall and contains an exhibition of objects related to Lu Xun and some other intellectuals who influenced Chinese modernization and indirectly prepared the way for the communist revolution.
