volguus zildrohar Nov 17, 2017 8:03 PM

Some colorful business there. Nice shots.

subterranean Nov 17, 2017 9:54 PM

Simply gorgeous. Won't be long before the US is playing second fiddle.

Austinlee Nov 17, 2017 10:06 PM

Very impressive. Guangzhou looks pretty amazing. Some serious skyscrapers there. That last pic is amazing. Nice work.

Ex-Ithacan Nov 17, 2017 10:42 PM

So colorful. One of several pics which made me smile:

Awesome photos, glad to see that there are still some historic neighborhoods left.

impressive city.

cityskyscrapers Nov 17, 2017 11:41 PM

Thanks for the tour. Fantastic lighting on the buildings and skyscrapers.

hkskyline Nov 18, 2017 1:58 AM

Ah ... CTF has been lit up. Wonder if there is an observation deck / hotel at the top?

jtown,man Nov 18, 2017 2:41 AM

Some beautiful towers there....

Coldrsx Nov 18, 2017 6:21 PM

Wonderful set, thanks.

streetscaper Nov 18, 2017 7:08 PM

Great exposee! great photos!

The North One Nov 18, 2017 7:23 PM

The new tower they built is an absolute monster, I can't get over it.

Also, that old district looks so beautiful.

Klazu Nov 19, 2017 4:57 AM

Wow, what an amazing set of a great city! :tup:

Nightsky Nov 21, 2017 12:28 AM

Great pics! Visited some years ago, amazing city, too bad it was extremely grey all the time.

the urban politician Nov 21, 2017 3:27 PM

China is incredible, I must visit.

Having said that, what’s with the weird food? Snake? Come on, just seeing that stuff will spoil my appetite even if I don’t eat it.

deja vu Nov 21, 2017 6:41 PM

What a great set. Thank you for sharing it. So much complexity in the world...

muppet Nov 30, 2017 2:49 PM

did you walk down the Central Axis (between the two skyscrapers)? It's one big park and lined with supertalls all the way down it.

Yep, that's where a lot of the International Light Festival exhibits were located.

mSeattle Dec 15, 2017 3:04 AM

Amazing.

FREKI Dec 16, 2017 12:17 AM

Wonderful shots mate!

Tiger Beer Apr 22, 2018 8:05 AM

cool-looking city!!

muppet Aug 13, 2018 1:10 PM

Great set, thanks! What's with the building that looks like it's made of teabags?

JMKeynes Aug 13, 2018 1:43 PM

You snapped very impressive photos of this beautiful city! :cheers:

Murphy de la Sucre Aug 14, 2018 12:35 AM

Definitely third world scenes.

To develop its economy and shake off poverty and backwardness, China must open to the outside world.

LSyd Aug 14, 2018 3:44 AM
