Checking in at Foshan Liangyuan with 'China National Geography' is so worth it

Exploring Foshan Liangyuan, encountering the treasure of Lingnan gardens✨ Located at No. 93, Pioneer Ancient Trail, Songfeng Road, Chancheng District, Foshan City, Liangyuan is an artistic pearl from the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods of the Qing Dynasty, known as one of the 'Four Great Gardens of Lingnan', alongside Shunde's Qinghui Garden, Panyu's Yuyin Mountain House, and Dongguan's Keyuan. This ancient architectural complex, which integrates mansions, ancestral halls, and gardens, captivates visitors with its unique Cantonese charm and exquisitely delicate design, making them linger and forget to return. Stepping into Liangyuan is like entering a vivid Lingnan painting. Pavilions, terraces, and galleries are arranged in a picturesque disorder, with strange rocks scattered about, small bridges over flowing water adding vitality, and lotus-scented waterside pavilions as poetic as a painting. In addition to the intoxicating natural landscape, the Lingnan-style furniture and exquisite Manchu window craftsmanship contained within are also unique, providing a great source of inspiration for photography enthusiasts and classical culture seekers. 📸Photo tip: It is recommended to start shooting around 4 p.m., when the light is the softest, capturing the most beautiful moments of light and shadow in Liangyuan. 🗺️Travel tips: 1️⃣Liangyuan is of a moderate size and can be paired with a visit to the nearby ancestral temple and Lingnan Xintiandi, both of which are less than 2 kilometers away from Liangyuan. 2️⃣The ticket is affordable, only 10 yuan per person (half price for students), and the opening hours are from 9:00 to 17:00 (entry stops at 16:40). 🚗Convenient transportation: It only takes a few minutes by taxi from the Zumiao station exit of the Guangfo line to reach Liangyuan, or you can choose to take bus 109 or 105 to Liangyuan station.
