Become a 'Handcrafted Artisan' – Custom-Made Memories to Treasure
The itinerary goes beyond mere 'visiting' and is upgraded to 'creating'. You will handmake a music box, from the mechanism, sound cylinder to decorations, crafting a melody keepsake that is uniquely yours; you will also participate in perfume blending, creating a one-of-a-kind signature fragrance. It is not only a memento of the trip but also an artistic masterpiece carrying Guangzhou memories, an irreplaceable piece of art, and a olfactory identity that cannot be replicated anywhere else.
A Journey Through Centuries of 'Cantonese Elegance' – Immersive Cultural Experience Blending East and West
Perfumes and music boxes were both 'Western novelties' introduced to Guangzhou in the late Qing and early Republican periods. After fusing with local culture, they became symbols of Cantonese 'modernity' and 'refinement'. Through in-depth explanations by professional guides, these experiences are woven into a cultural narrative, allowing you to not only engage in hands-on activities but also 'read' a vivid, living history of Sino-Western cultural exchange in Guangzhou.
A Double Delight of Taste and Culture – 'Food in Guangzhou' with Authoritative Certification
Lunch is carefully arranged at a renowned old-established Guangzhou restaurant, which itself is the best interpretation of the 'Food in Guangzhou' golden brand. It is not only a culinary enjoyment but also an authentic experience of Cantonese dietary culture.

【Lunch: Huiru Restaurant】
Founded in 1875 (the first year of the Guangxu reign, Qing Dynasty) by Chen Huiru, it is one of Guangzhou's earliest teahouses. A famous century-old establishment in Guangzhou, it possesses profound historical and cultural heritage and unique culinary flavors. Shortly after its opening, due to the death of Emperor Tongzhi, the signboard could not be red during the national mourning period, so it was changed to black background with gold characters—a distinctive feature retained until its renovation in 1987. During the 1987 renovation, an upper couplet, "Benefiting oneself and others, always upholding fairness" , was discovered in a warehouse storeroom. Research confirmed it was written in 1880 to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Huilou's opening. Later, a public newspaper campaign sought the lower couplet, finally confirm as "Like family and old friends, always warming the guests' hearts" .
Dried Minced Fish and Pork Siu Mai is its traditional dim sum, while Ruyi Fragrant Chicken and Lotus Leaf Steamed Pigeon are signature dishes.
