The park is a serene getaway to retreat from the hustling and bustling of the commercial city of Guangzhou. It is full of greenery and plantations, with beautiful flowers and other facilities to make your resting time more enjoyable. Endowed with beautiful natural surroundings, where visitors could enjoy the verdant grass and listen to the birds singing, the park also attracts many inquisitives to enjoy the collection of antiques. It is made up of three artificial lakes and seven hills of Yue Xiu mountain. The Dongxiu Lake is known as an excellent site for painting and scenery viewing, while its sister lake, The Beixiu Lake has three smaller lakes with artistic stone bridge and serene pavilion by the lake side. The combination of the three lakes has made the view even more fascinating. The best time to visit the park is Spring, when the temperature is moderate and the annual Guangzhou Flower exhibition is held.
