Glimpses of Guangzhou, China

Guangzhou, the capital city of Guangdong Province in the south eastern region of China, is going to be hosting the 2010 Asian Games in November this year. This will be the first time that China has hosted the games, and the first time that such a large scale sporting global event is going to be witnessed in Guangzhou. The city is known for its rich Cantonese (or Guangdong) culture, delicious Cantonese food (you can eat whatever you like- seriously!), Cantonese Opera and the history that is as old as the grassroots of the north of China. Here are some photos which I have taken on my recent visit earlier this year to this amazing city. Enjoy!
