Fodor's Expert Review Yuexiu Park

Guangzhou's largest park covers 170 rolling acres and includes landscaped gardens, artificial lakes, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, an amusement park, and playgrounds. The famous Five Rams Statue (五羊塑像, wǔ yáng sùxiàng) celebrates the ancient legend of the five celestials who appeared riding on goats to bring grain to the townspeople. Another must-see is the Zhenhai Tower, which has been converted into the Guangzhou Museum, where you'll find a fascinating mix of Guangzhou's archaeological findings.
