It 's end autumn .This southern city of China welcomed us in a sunny day.
Buses were not allowed to pick up tourists in front of arrival . We have to walk a long way out , across the street to board the bus .
Boarded , we were to visit the Sun Yat Sen Memorial and the YueXiu Park.

| A copy of Dr Sun's writing |

From the memorial , just across the road not too far away is the Yuexiu Park which has a 5-goats Statue . The park was scenic but too pack with people on a hot sunny Thursday.

The local tour leader seems eager to cover as much spots in the itinerary as possible. Soon after lunch, we visited the Shamian island which was an area leased to British & French those years in history.
Now, it is a beautiful leisure park, a popular scenic spot for bridal photo shooting , we were told. True enough, we were lucky to see the evidence .... many couples were there taking photos .

There's even a primary school in the midst .
We found another interesting thing here in the park ...... it was equipped with fitness exercises tools , all in perfect condition . No vandalism .
Wonder how long would this metals last in our park before the 'collectors ' steal and sell it off ?
