Canton Tower

One word: iconic. I visited on a clear day and the panorama of the Pearl River and the city skyline was worth every cent. There are little telescopes you can use, and I spent a good 30 minutes just spotting landmarks. The rotating restaurant at the top is pricey but the food is decent. A must-see landmark – no regrets.

Went here with my family and we all loved it! The kids were fascinated by the transparent floor at the observation deck. We booked the combo ticket that included the Sky Drop ride – terrifying but so much fun. The staff made sure everything was safe and the views were spectacular. Best part of our trip to Guangzhou!

I’ve been to many towers around the world, and Canton Tower holds its own. The architecture is stunning, especially when it lights up at night. The bubble tram ride on the top is unique and offers a cool perspective. Only reason I’m not giving a 5 is because the souvenir shop felt overpriced and the queue for the elevator down was a bit long. Still, highly recommended.

Honestly, I was expecting more for the price. The observation deck was crowded and it took forever to get up the elevator. The view is nice, sure, but the windows were a bit dirty and there wasn’t much info about the landmarks. For a 3-star experience, it’s okay if you have nothing else planned, but I wouldn’t rush back.

The view from the top is absolutely breathtaking – you can see the whole city stretching out beneath you. The glass floor gave me a bit of a thrill, but the staff were super friendly and the whole experience felt well-organized. I went just before sunset and it was perfect. Definitely a must-do if you’re in Guangzhou!

Best decision ever to go around 5 PM! Watched the sunset from the top, then the city lights slowly turned on—breathtaking transitions. I also did the Sky Drop (free fall ride) and it was a huge adrenaline rush. The safety briefing was clear and the ride operators were professional. The whole experience felt premium and well-organized. Definitely recommend splurging on the combo ticket.

What an engineering marvel! The twisted, hourglass shape is even more impressive in person. The ride up in the high-speed elevator was thrilling—ears popped, but the panoramic view at the top was worth it. Spent a good hour just walking around the different levels. The staff were friendly and helpful. If you're into architecture or cityscapes, this is the place. Five stars, no question.

Absolutely incredible at night! The whole tower lights up and the view from the top is pure magic—the Pearl River winding through the city with all those skyscrapers glowing. The Bubble Tram (the rotating observation car) was a highlight; it's like a slow-moving Ferris wheel with a glass floor. Romantic and unforgettable. I'd say this is a must-do in Guangzhou, just go after sunset for the best experience.

Great views overall, but the place gets insanely packed. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was shoulder-to-shoulder on every observation deck. The 360-degree view is stunning, and the glass floor is fun if you can find a clear spot. They could use better crowd control, and the souvenir shop is overpriced. Still worth a visit, just go on a weekday early morning if you can.

Honestly, I was a bit let down. The ticket price is pretty steep, and we waited almost 2 hours in line just to get up. Once we reached the top, the visibility was terrible because of the fog—could barely see the city. The glass floor section was crowded and scratched, so not that impressive. For the money and time, I expected more. Might be better on a clear day, but for me it was just okay.

A classic landmark, but honestly it feels a bit tourist-trap-ish. The queue management was chaotic and the interactive displays were outdated. The view itself is decent, but nothing mind-blowing compared to other towers I've visited. Decent for a one-time check, but not worth revisiting. 3/5.

Best view of the Pearl River at night – the lights on the towers and bridges are like a fairy tale. I loved the open-air section even though it was windy. The binoculars are a nice touch. Worth every penny, and the staff helped me take awesome photos. 5 stars all the way!

Honestly, a bit disappointed. The queue to get up took almost an hour, and when we finally reached the top, the smog was so thick that you could barely see the Canton Fair complex. For the money I spent, I expected better. The staff were polite though, so I'll give it a 3.

Went on a weekday to avoid crowds – smart move. The observation deck was spacious and the breeze up there felt amazing. Only downside was the overpriced coffee at the café inside, but the panoramic vista totally made up for it. A solid 4/5 for the overall vibe.

Stunning views from the top, especially at sunset when the city lights start to flicker on. The elevator ride is super fast and the glass floors give you a real thrill. Definitely a must-do if you're in Guangzhou, though the ticket price is a bit steep for the full experience.

Pretty cool landmark – the architecture is futuristic and the height is insane. The bubble tram ride on top was fun but felt a bit short. Also, the staff were friendly and helpful. However, I wish the interior hall had more exhibits or information about the tower's construction. Good value if you combo with the nearby river cruise.

Came here with my boyfriend during our trip and it was the highlight of our stay. We booked the evening slot and watched the city transform into a sea of stars. The rotating restaurant upstairs is pricey but the food was decent and the ambiance romantic. Will remember this for a long time 🌆

Honestly, I was a bit let down. The queue to get in took almost an hour, and once we were up, it was so crowded that we could barely find a good spot for photos. The glass floor section is cool but very small. For the price and wait time, I expected more. Maybe go on a weekday?

Great experience overall. The tower itself is impressive and the elevator ride is smooth and fast. The observation deck offers a nice 360° view. Only downside is that the tickets are a bit pricey for what you get, and the souvenir shop was overpriced. Still, I'd recommend going at least once.

Absolutely stunning! Went up at sunset and watched the city lights flicker on – magical. The glass floor gave me butterflies, but the view from the top is unbeatable. Definitely worth every penny. If you're in Guangzhou, don't miss it!
