About Yuexiu Park
It combines wooded slopes and lakes with landmarks that explain the old city, including the Five Rams sculpture and Zhenhai Tower. The varied ground gives the park a sequence of viewpoints and sheltered spaces rather than one large flat lawn.
Use the monuments as anchors for a park walk. The Five Rams group connects with the city’s traditional identity, while Zhenhai Tower introduces a different layer of urban history and houses Guangzhou Museum displays. The park paths and the museum are different parts of the visit, so check the museum’s own access arrangements if you want to go inside.
What to look for
- The Five Rams stone sculpture is one of the park’s principal landmarks.
- Zhenhai Tower stands on the hill and contains Guangzhou Museum displays.
- Wooded slopes and lakes provide the landscape between the historic sites.
The surrounding area
Provincial capital and a city base for Cantonese food, Liwan's old neighborhoods and Pearl River urban life.
