Guangzhou: Ancestral Hall Tour with Local Street Food Walk

Discover the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall and Xihua Road on a guided tour. Explore the seven traditional crafts of Cantonese architecture and taste at least 5 local dishes.
Join a local expert guide on a sensory journey through Lingnan architecture and the flavors of traditional Cantonese street food. Your experience begins at the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, often called the “jewel of Lingnan architecture,” followed by a culinary stroll along Xihua Road, home to some of the most authentic local delicacies.

Meet your guide outside the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, a UNESCO-listed cultural landmark and architectural masterpiece from the Qing Dynasty. Famous for its intricate wood, brick, stone, and ivory carvings, the hall also houses exquisite silk embroidery, ceramics, and paintings that offer a full spectrum of Lingnan aesthetic tradition and regional folklore.

During your 1.5-hour guided visit, you’ll explore the seven traditional crafts of Cantonese architecture—including golden lacquer woodcarvings, pottery rooftop sculptures, and delicate figurines. Your guide will lead you through highlights like the grand wood-carved screen depicting Water Margin (a classic Chinese novel), and uncover the craftsmanship stories behind temple eaves and opera-inspired ceramics.

Next, enjoy a 15-minute walk through a historical neighborhood toward Xihua Road, where the food adventure begins. Your guide will take you to at least 3 carefully selected street food and dessert spots, with options ranging from hand-pulled rice noodles, beef brisket noodles, “bowl shark fin soup,” fish ball noodles, Cantonese cheung fun (rice rolls), to pan-fried dumplings.

For dessert, try local favorites such as double-skin milk pudding, black sesame soup, or traditional Cantonese milk tea. Your guide will tailor the tasting experience to your preferences—or you can simply sit back and enjoy their top picks for the most authentic flavors.
