Step into Shaxi Dock, Guangzhou's last remaining ferry crossing with authentic pole-powered boats! Under the shade of century-old banyan trees, watch boatmen leisurely push bamboo rods to cross the tributary of Pearl River—it's like time-traveling to old Canton. Come at dusk when golden sunset paints the water, with traditional Tanka houses on both banks creating perfect vintage photo ops. Don't miss nearby Shaxi Congee Stalls—their firewood-cooked Cantonese boat noodles will leave you craving for more!
