This was my first visit to Guangzhou after several months of living and travelling across China. I travelled via the high-speed train from Shenzhen to Guangzhou but I was denied by my hotel upon arrival due to a lack of the right documents to accommodate foreign guests. I eventually found another hotel that accepts foreigners and my first day had a happy ending.

A Chinese lady give me money for a reason lol
