My first impression of Guangzhou, I would say it was extremely clean, flowers are well tended to along the sidewalks, bridges, as well as high-ways. The availability of bins was high, which helped keep the streets clean. Even some bins were decorated with real flowers on top. This shows that they have truly kept up to their name of "City of Flowers".

The main source of transport among citizens were by cars, bicycles or train. Hundreds of bicycles were easily available for hire along the city streets.
