🏛️ What It Is

The Canton Tower (nicknamed “Little Waist”) stands 600 meters tall. It is China’s tallest television tower and a landmark of Guangzhou. The Ferris wheel at the 450-meter level is the world’s highest horizontal Ferris wheel, and the 488-meter observation deck offers a 360-degree panoramic view of Guangzhou. At night, the tower is illuminated with dazzling, colorful lights.

✨ Why Visit

Guangzhou’s most iconic landmark. We recommend visiting the tower in the evening to watch the sunset over the Pearl River and see the city lights gradually come on.
