  2. Beijing Lu

    One of Guǎngzhōu's favourite shopping spots, Beijing Lu , a 300m pedestrian street crammed full of shops big and small, selling virtually everything imaginable. It's easily reachable from the Gongyuan Qian metro stop. It gets really crowded on the weekends, but that's part of the fun.
