This continues from my June review. A few months later, we again took the canal boat but this time we explored the shopping street at the terminus which turned out to be the Yong Qing Fang (永庆坊) shopping area.

Yong Qing Fang is an area of old buildings that have been refurbished and turned into shops, noodle bars, bakeries, restaurants both Chinese and Western, clothes shops etc., and there’s even a small museum about the area. There are the usual culinary bastions, namely MacDonald’s, KFC, and Starbucks. There’s even a restaurant that specializes in the use of wasabi paste.

My wife bought egg tarts from a bakery, telling me the bakery was famous for its egg tarts. Here, it is amazing how many bakeries are famous for their egg tarts.
As we sipped a cup of tea and watched the passersby, I opinioned that the visitors were wearing t-shirts whereas the locals were wearing sweaters. The temperature being less than 30C means it’s winter weather in Guangzhou and the locals dress accordingly.

We wandered west towards the Cantonese Opera Art Museum (TA reviewed), and there’s another area where the streets become narrow lanes, where there are even more twee shops and Bru Lee’s ancestral residence, which is worth a walk around if you’re a film buff.

Then it was back to the wharf to get the electric boat back to LiWan park.

We had forty-minutes or so to wait before an office opened. I was quite content to sit on a bench by the side of the canal and watch the locals go about their business, but my wife had other ideas. There was a kiosk and next to it was an electric canal boat, so no sooner said than done, she was waving tickets. The tickets were ¥60 for me, but ¥80 for her as she’s not yet decrepit enough.

Note: Everybody buys with a phone app. Alipay or WeChat pay. Cash has virtually disappeared. No credit or debit cards either.

Her enthusiasm was infectious, and three others joined us, and within a couple of minutes we were gliding silently along the canal. We passed the dragon boat that had been used in anger a couple of weeks ago. It’s only when you get up close you realize how long and narrow, they are. Then it was under the bridge and passed the pavilion where locals perform Cantonese opera, under another bridge and then we were at a T junction, but instead of turning right to the lake as we expected, we turned left.

My wife was concerned, surely our captain/navigator was lost. He replied that the lake was now off-limits as the weeds as so thick they clog the boat’s propeller. So, we settled back to enjoy the trip past places we were familiar with but only from the road.

It’s only when you are on the canal that you realize how narrow they are and that racing in a dragon boat must be rather exciting to say the least, luckily our boat wasn’t going much more than walking speed. Occasionally we slowed to a crawl as we passed chaps boats clearing the canal of mainly leaves from the trees, empty water bottles, and cigarette packets.

A few anglers were trying their luck. I’m sure they were still there the next day as we walked along the road back to the office. Everything here seems to take at least three visits to get things sorted.

We passed the Cantonese Opera Art Museum (TA reviewed), and then we were at the canal basin where the outward part of boat trip ended after 20 minutes or so, with a shopping street. The tickets are useable on any boat returning after exploring the area, but as we had to be back for the opening of the office we sat tight, and we were the only customers for the return. This enabled my wife to have a long chat with the driver about all things Lychee Bay.

Next time, well explore the shopping street, and again visit the Cantonese Opera Art Museum.

I'm not sure where the Lychee Bay Scenic Area ends, but it seems to refer to the area around the canal adjacent to Lychee Bay Park. There are some retro stalls along the canal selling drinks and dried food. There's nothing particularly fun about it, but it has a good old, calm atmosphere.

Lychee is representative of the old Canton in popular imagination. A stroll along the riverbank is a historic tour with revamped houses, mansions and museums scattered around the oldest part of Guangzhou. The sections around Yongqing Fang and Liwan Lake Park are more picturesque while the rest is just aged residential area.

SWMBO and I venture about one a week to this area of Guangzhou to stroll and then eat dinner in one of the many restaurants. The area is not just the LiWan (荔湾) Lake Park but the Pantang Wuyue Area to the north of the park.

This review isn’t about one visit, but a distillation of many visits and I’ve tried to include photos of areas not on the tourist trail.

We usually get to the area by taxi, the ride across the city cost a little over ¥30. A bus costs ¥2, that’s the flat fare across the city, use it ten times in a month and there’s a 40% discount, pay by card or phone app rather than cash.

The park is free to enter and there are many entrances. There are many places to sit and relax, and clean toilets dotted around the park.

Much of the park is lakes but there are numerous bridges, the Five Arch bridge being the most famous, connected by flat and wide paths winding around the lakes.

In the summer months, at weekends, and on public holidays boats are for hire on a lake, and there are ‘flower boat’ trips in the evening along the canals and lakes but be aware they are rather expensive. The lakes are very clean.

There are a couple of museums in the park on the east side of the park, see Liwan Museum (TA review). Across the canal is a performance stage for the local Cantonese opera performers with their orchestra. Since covid it’s been closed but hopefully they’ll be performing in the near future. In the past, afternoons were their performance time. Don’t expect costumes, it's casual clothes for them.

Talking of Cantonese Opera, about a 20-minute walk away is the Yueju (粤剧) Art Museum or Cantonese Opera Art Museum (TA reviewed) which is must to visit if you’re in the area and musically or theatrically inclined.

The old village in the Pantang Wuyue Area is well worth a stroll along the narrow lanes and alleys especially in the evening when the small trinket and arty shops and coffee shops open. However, be aware of the riders of electric scooters who constantly beep their horns to clear the way. I’m particularly fond of ogling the old Kawasaki motorbike in Seduce Gear’s window.

Just remember, many people still live in the village, so respect their privacy and don’t wander into their house or yard.

There are nice restaurants on Pantang Road which marks the eastern limit of the area. Panxi Restaurant is a very nice one at the southern end and some tables overlook the lake. The area around South Gate has a couple of good restaurants and a coffee shop. Our particular favourite is LuLuXianLian, but if you must have a Chinese speaker with you as you choose not from a menu but from the selection of foods shown at the door.

I’m sure I’ve forgotten things but just go there, stroll around, enjoy the scenery, and absorb the atmosphere.

Rascist and discriminatory behaviour. Nasty nasty manager called min, I was beyond appalled with the behaviour displayed.

Love going there. Liwan Park is beautiful, with locals practicing tai chi, singing and performing Cantonese opera, and the canalside is very pretty. The shops along it are a bit hit and miss but some offer quite unusual snacks worth trying and there's Pacific Coffee right opposite so once can take a rest (if you don't fancy eating/drinking local stuff). Just down the road from it is an ancestral hall and a lovely tiny ice cream parlour (perhaps the oldest one in GZ?)I would highly recommend.

We took the hop on off bus blue line and the bus stop was 100 ft from the entrance of the park. We had a brunch in the courtyard of an authentic dim sum restaurant “Liyan”; very reasonable and nice atmosphere. We enjoyed the stroll in the park; very pleasant and relaxing.

If you are looking for this place on the map in Google Maps it is Xiguan Antique city in Liean Lake Park. Very nice stroll alongside the lake with bridges and many lanterns. Very close to this park is an area with tiny and narrow streets where you can see the house of Bruce Lee!!!
