That's Canton tower in the background . These sorts of towers are big tourist attractions everywhere, but this one is actually an interesting structure since it isn't just a concrete column. The supporting structure is entirely made steel, much like the Eiffel tower in Paris. And, of course, there are rides at the top.
Guangzhou is also home to one of the oldest Muslim communities in China, and one of the oldest mosques.
Sometimes called the lighthouse mosque, for obvious reasons, it's also the center of Guangzhou's Muslim community and, of course, the place to go for awesome food.
While wandering the city we found this rather large Buddhist Temple. There's always interesting stuff around the corner in China.
