My place
The Canton Tower stands at the intersection of Guangzhou’s new urban central and the Pearl River scenery zone. Right across the river, is the Asian Games Park and Zhu Jiang New Town, together with the Guangzhou Opera House, Library, No.2 Children’s Palace and Guangdong Provincial Museum it forms the new metropolitan sky line. The Canton Tower is the tallest TV tower in the world with a total height of 600m. The Tower was built using the latest engineering technologies, but inherits 2000 years of Canton Culture. It displays Guangzhou’s vision and determination to the world. The Tower offers an observation deck with a spectacular view, several top-notch restaurants and catering services, 5-star exhibition, convention and entertainment facilities. All these enable you not just to enjoy the magnificent scenery of Guangzhou, but also to experience the excitement of adventure at great heights.

Quene & Quene but worth the time
Went to the xiao man yap, Canton Tower today . Checks were strict due to covid. Masks, temperature taking are a must. Tickets are personalized with name and passport number printed on the tickets. There's 3 rounds of ticket checking before reaching the tower. Everything was smooth and fast although there was some jostling and shoving during the quene for the lift. However this is typical of daily situation in China so behave accordingly to maintain your place in the quene. To get the best value for your tickets, go up around 6pm, hang around until 630 pm and join the quene for bubble tram to be on the tram just in time for sunset (sunset is now 705pm daily in summer but check the timing to be sure before you buy the tickets). With this timing, you get to see daylight, sunset and night time with 1 ticket price! I would also suggest reserving tickets 1 day in advance to avoid disappointment.

Colour and contrast
Walking towards the river, the tower is unmistakable. It is colourful at night, cutting into the night sky in a beautiful display of light. It seems busy at night and gets busier as you get closer. The vantage points of the tower are really quite good and well-designed. Pictures don't always do it justice.
