Cuti - Cuti Guangzhou : Part I

This holiday started with a not so good note. Memula Mak macam berat hati nak lepaskan kami pegi bercuti due to the MH370 incident. Then, our travelling partner i.e my sis had a miscarriage and had to do D&C just a day before our departure. I was ready to cancel her hotel booking. Tapi dengan semangat yang berkobar-kobar nak melancong, she told me to proceed with our planned trip. Then, my phone rosak lepas balik dari Guangzhou. Habis semua gambar2 kat Guangzhou..huwaa..Tak sempat transfer ke pc. Yang ada ni ihsan dari my sis.

Mak pulak redha jelah dengan anak2 dia yang ketegaq nak p melancong..haha..Doa je banyak-banyak. Dah la kak pun pegi umrah on the same day. So, all her daughters were overseas at the same time. I think Allah permudahkan semua urusan kami partly because of Mak's du'a..

My friend Ida who was supposed to go a day later than us cancelled her trip. Mak dia tak bagi pegi. So, kuranglah our travelling partners.

Kami bertolak dari KL at 5:30am on 19th March 2014. Malam tu dah ambik last flight ke KL from Penang. Lepak je kat airport until our scheduled flight to Guangzhou. We arrived in Guangzhou at 9:45am. About 4 hours flight. Keluar je dari arrival hall terus ke gate A2 untuk ambik bas ke hotel. Only 21 yuan per person. 45 minit je ke hotel. Bas berhenti depan hotel. We stayed at Guangzhou Hotel. Sampai hotel sebelum 12pm. Nasib hotel bagi early check-in.

Hotel Guangzhou

Comel je deco depan lift hotel..

Hotel Guangzhou ni memang convenient. Kat Haizhu square. Dekat one link plaza & shoes plaza. Di belakang hotel ada restoren muslim. Nak ke Beijing Lu pun dalam 1km. Depan hotel tu Pearl River. Nak ke river cruise jalan kaki je. Subway station pun kat luar entrance hotel je i.e Haizhu Plaza station.

Lepas mandi, kami makan kat restoren belakang hotel tu. Then menuju ke One link Plaza. Masa ni aura shopping tak mai lagi. Penat kut. Tengok barang2 pun macam di awang-awangan je. So, we decided to take a rest first at our hotel.

Malam tu keluar ke Beijing Lu. Kat sini first time kami merasa sate kambing di Guangzhou yang sangat sedap & lembut. Dah jadi ketagih pulak. Every day kami makan. 3 yuan secucuk. Sate kambing ni memang ada kat tempat tumpuan pelancong. Halal ye..

Sate kambing ada di merata-rata area shopping..

Beijing Lu ni pedestrian street. For me, tak banyak yang menarik pun kat sini. Ada 2 halal restaurants i.e makanan lombok & chinese muslim food. Tapi..kalau siang, dari hotel Guangzhou ke Beijing Lu, ada leather street & accesories street in between. Malam ni sempatlah beli 2-3 jenis barang before kami balik beradu..:-)
