Trip to Guangzhou: Mahad Turbashaash

Several years , I was living still live in Oslo which is called the center of the Norway. I didn’t know anything about the place I would visit called Guangzhou. So I didn’t know the many advantages of Guangzhou. On the map published in the western world, the city is named Kanton.

I heard that it was a place crowed with factories and full of atmosphere, and the dishes were very special. When I arrived at the Baiyun Airport, my imaginary Guangzhou was approved: an new airport, an old and low and modern building, world famous airplanes on the ground, . When the airplane I got on from Beijing to Guangzhou stopped on the ground, I had to get off the airplane, in an old manner, stepping down through .

The pleasant thing is that it was a sunny day, and a clerk from Guangdong Foreign Affairs Office came to the dragging way waiting for me, and expressed a warmly welcome to me. My feeling was getting better on the way from the airport to the downtown. I found that Guangzhou has as many high buildings as Dubai does. They are exactly as good as those in Dubai. Now I have been living in Guangzhou for 9 days , and I have been being very glad all the time. Soon, I learned that Guangzhou is a metropolis full of energies, with a great number of historical ancient remains, old city district co-existing with modern and full of traditional tone, modern public basic facilities, parks, museums, musical halls, modern sports buildings, exhibition halls, luxurious hotels, etc. Guangzhou has a general basic facilities and a modernization industry.

Obviously, these achievements have been made all in the last 20 years. Yet, it still keeps fast developing day by day. Cranes seen everywhere in the central districts is telling that. The ancient Guangzhou is disappearing continuously. Today’s Guangzhou is a modern metropolis.. In one word, Guangzhou will be a proud city of China. Guangzhou people like to present with foreigners. I have been asked many times to be taken photos with the citizens in the streets.
