Yuexiu Park

Yuexiu Park: Guangzhou’s Green Heartbeat of History and Harmony 

Step into Yuexiu Park (越秀公园), and you’ll feel the city exhale. This sprawling urban oasis—China’s largest of its kind—is where Guangzhou’s soul unfurls across rolling hills, shimmering lakes, and centuries of cultural treasures. It’s not just a park; it’s a living tapestry of nature, legend, and legacy.

What Makes Yuexiu Park Unforgettable

• Lush Landscapes: Covering acres of verdant hills, the park is a sanctuary of bamboo groves, flowering trees, and peaceful lakes that invite reflection and exploration.
• Zhenhai Tower: A Ming Dynasty marvel now housing the Guangzhou Museum, where five floors of relics trace 5,000 years of history alongside a miniature model of modern Guangzhou.
• Five Rams Statue: This iconic stone sculpture is more than art—it’s the legendary symbol of Guangzhou, said to represent the city’s mythical origins and enduring prosperity.
• Cultural Pulse: From tai chi at dawn to families picnicking under banyan trees, the park is alive with local rhythms and timeless charm.

Easy to Reach, Hard to Leave

Located right by Yuexiu Park Station (Metro Line 2, Exit B1), it’s effortlessly accessible yet feels worlds away from the urban buzz. Open daily from 6:00 to 18:00, it’s perfect for sunrise strolls, midday museum visits, or golden-hour photography.
