Guangzhou

Guangzhou is China’s third largest city and the historical centre of Cantonese culture. Sitting in the South along the Pearl River, this long-time exporter of tea and porcelain is currently one of the country’s busiest trade hubs. Guangzhou is home to one of the world’s busiest airports, which connects Europe, the Middle East, Australia and the U.S. with Asia. If you’re transiting through, you can apply for the 72-hour free transit visa, which is available to passport holders of selected countries.
