Wong Faye or Tony Iommi.
by Guantanamera
Hey kids, here's a photo of famed heavy metal icon and Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi... When I was in Guangzhou, playing some of my Western music cd's for Xiujuan, she listened to the Black Sabbath song "Iron Man" and proclaimed it "interesting"... People in Guangzhou aren't generally very familiar with the supposedly "world famous" musicians of the Western world... Music stars like Faye Wong from neighboring Hong Kong (called Wong Faye on the mainland) and other parts of China tend to be much much more popular... But you know, kids, Ozzy once said: "Tony Iommi is the HEAVIEST motherf****r that ever lived!" And I would have to agree with that statement...

by Sobe-A-Rush about China Hotel Buffet
When you go into the China Hotel go up the stairs right in front of you, then turn right and on the right hang side you have a Buffet restaurant. It is 200RMB per person for all you can eat and sit there as long as you want. Drinks do cost extra. They have all kinds of food there, a lot of food to choose from. Steak and es-cargot
Renmin Park
by Willettsworld
This particular Renmin Park, or People's Park, was my first one in China where I got to see everyday Chinese people do what they do well and that is either relaxing, doing Tai chi, playing ping pong, badminton, chess, card games or dominos, dancing or singing. The Chinese utilise these parks very well and they are always a hive of activity and a great source to see what everyday Chinese do in their spare time.
This particular park was built in 1917 and measures 48,400 square meters. It was originally named "The first park" before changing its name to "Central Park" in 1926 before changing again to its present name in 1966. The park features many sculptures, archways and pavilions. The large building at the back of the park is the Guangzhou Municipal Government Office.
