Vacation at Guangzhou

It was cold in Guangzhou. There was a bus to take us to our hotel. Upon reaching the hotel, we were all delighted. At least this time we will be staying in a "real" hotel. But unfortunately, people were allowed to smoke inside the lobby. I was sharing the room with my cousin. The room was just like a typical hotel room.
After a while, we all went to Beijing Road. There were a lot of people everywhere. We walked for hours and our feet were tire out. It was 10+ pm when we went for feet massage. It was a great experience for us. This was my first time having a feet massage.
The second day, we walked around and went shopping. About 5pm, we visited "shang jiu lu and xia jiu lu". The air pollution level was very high as many people were smoking. The streets were filthy and filled with litter. I am so glad to be living in Singapore. That night, we had feet massage again.
We went to various attractions the next day. Our first stop was Wong Fei Hong Memorial Hall. There, we learnt about the history of Wong Fei Hong. Next, we visited Chimelong Xiangjiang Safari Park Guangzhou. The zoo was really big. Their newest attraction is the Koala House. We also saw panda and white lion. At night, we went to Cirque Du Chimelong to watch a circus. It was a good show with live animals like hippo, horses, monkeys and white tiger.
This was our last day in Guangzhou. We went to Dr Sun Yat-Sen's Memorial Hall and 2 other attractions. After that, it was time to go to the airport. We boarded SIA and went back to Singapore. I was not feeling good all the way.
