Currently there is a long distance MRT line going there from Zhuhai. Location - Unknown. When I went there in 2008, the only option is via express bus from the Bus terminal opposite the border gate (KFC buidong)..

10 rmb per pax is hard to get even I think, when I was in Guangzhou recently, zkungfu and mcd cost almost rmb 20 for 1 set, and that is for lunch.

if we go to more family type of restaurant, it will easily cost rmb 30 per pax.

going with girl? bring them go 十三行, for a shock of your life but beware that the gals might not come out until they close shop. but they close early anyway, their business start from 6am to 12pm like that lolx

anyway, guangzhou street usually got loads of roadside stalls, while restaurants, all kinds of chinese foods la, Szechuan, hunan, Xinjiang (china muslim) food, etc etc, but of course most is canto food la.

hotel is cheap. the hotel i stayed is east asia hotel, stayed at their refurbish room, i think 1 night only RM150 which is very good. Their old room sux  to the max though tongue.gif

there's this kind of transport in guangzhou, a modified motorcycle where the rear can sit 2 people. IMO more dangerous than those tuk tuk in thailand, but i still sit, haha

oh yea....most taxis there are meter taxi, and are cheap compare to malaysia

Mind to ask for your east asia hotel which floor is it refurbish? because i check from their website some rooms offer they put 6-7 floor worry the floor are old rooms, check thrue agoda for stay at haizhu square(guess should be shopping area) some of the customer comments rooms are old and dirty.. very worry budget around rm100/120 can go up to rm150 included taxes.. any boutique hotel? or new/cleaner hotel? maybe like tune hotels? @@~

hmm...you need to pay a bit more for refurbish room, around extra RM20 like that per night

i not sure which floor is it , but when book , i choose the one a bit more expansive than the cheapest one

u can choose guangzhou baiyun city hotel, just beside the train station. that one the room is ok . I think if you pay RM150 for a hotel, u can get good clean rooms d (exclude canton fair period where most hotel room price will hike up 100%)
