Outing in Yuexiu Park

A few weeks ago, we visited the most renowned park in Guangzhou-Yuexiu Park. It has been a pleasant visit because we enjoyed not only the senic spots but gained more indepth insights into the history and culture of Guangzhou.
Following are some pictures I took in the park that I would like to share with all of you.

1) This is, perhaps, the Totem of Guangzhou. It is all about a legendary story, a reflection of the city's longstanding history and brilliant culture of over 2000 years. The story is being passed down from generation to generation. It is said that during a time in ancient times, the area of Guangzhou suffered from severe famine. From the heaven came a Divine, riding 5 sheeps who helded in their mouth rices, to endow the city with peace, prosperity and love. Guangzhou has been enjoying continuous rapid development and prosperity since ancient times. Everything glimmery and shimmering has its root in its storied past. And I am sure brilliance has a lot to do with its strong suits, and do hope it will remain, forever, the land of prosperity.

2) Below presents a beautiful secery in the park. It is really stunning. But as always and to no shock of mine, Guangzhou isn't good at clearning its waterways. And when does its government realize what it should do and is supposed to do to get its Pearl River cleaned so as to refresh the city image? Pearl River is world-famous for its sightseeings and yet, it is all the more famous nation wide for its polluted water. In spite of all its drawbacks, Pearl River and the city of Guangzhou remain a hit for tourist destination. It is all fine.
Pls do see carefully that two people, wearing raincoats, were fishing quietly and undisturedly. What a nice day it could be to just fish there with no distraction nor disturbance!

3) A snapshot of the Nanyuewang Gallary of Xihan Dinasty. With a quick glimpse from the outside, it was really small and delicate. But actually, it is unbelievably big in size inside the Gallary. Because it was originally the Tomb of the Nanyuwang King.

4) a look at the sky through spaces between branches and leaves-- the sky in Yuexiu Park. It is wild, classic and gorgeous.

5) This is what I like about spring. Flowers blossoms and trees bud, making a beautiful picture of nature.

6) Somewhere near Guangdong's Provicial Gallary located on the peak of the Yuexiu Hill(越秀山). I cannot take a picture with the full sight of the Gallary with my mobile phone. Search it on the internet if you are interested.

What do you think the guy is there on the top of the Yuexiu Hill?
