I enjoyed Lin’s tour of Guangzhou. She shared a lot of city history with us. She knows a lot about the old city’s architectural history and about Buddhism (which she shared when we visited a temple). She was very kind and answered our questions and even helped me after the tour order lunch, which I appreciated!
