Highlights:
The arcade city refers to the continuous arcade group in Wuzhou Hedong Old Town. The arcades are not uncommon in the south, but not many can be called "city". This arcade in Wuzhou is not only well preserved, but also one of the best in terms of architectural concentration and scale in my country. From Dadongshang Road to Beihuan Road and Guilin Road, you can see not only Nanyang-style and Baroque-style arcades, but also many historical buildings and old houses. Of course, there are also many specialty shops and delicious snacks. When the merchants were prosperous, there were more than 1,500 large and small businesses in the arcade city. The former glory has long since faded, and the small shops along the street are running their own business and have become a tepid leisure area. There are many sculptures reflecting the style of Wuzhou on the street, showing the life scenes of the citizens of Wuzhou in the old days. Walking on the street between the arcades, the huge statue of the Dragon Mother in the distance quietly overlooks the old city. In the midst of this prosperous change, many historical relics are still preserved. The former site of the Dadong Post Office on Dadong Shang Road, from which a telegram was sent in 1884, is still reserved as a post office today. There are many beautiful modern dwellings in Weixinli. The deep-walled compound and the exquisite carvings are worth savoring. The Catholic Church built in 1898 is also located here. Walking in the arcade city, there are many specialty shops along the street, and Wuzhou specialty snacks are also not to be missed.

The Baiyun Mountain Scenic Spot is close to the Longmu Taimiao Scenic Spot. The peak at the top is 386 meters, which is not too high. Therefore, it is also a place that Wuzhou citizens like to go for weekend leisure vacations.

The mountain is not high, so you can take a tour bus to go up the mountain, or choose the way of walking, stop and go, and you can climb it in about two hours. mountain top.
