Reviews
Good to know
①Pearl River Night Cruise: Please arrive at the pier 30 minutes in advance for assembly and ticket check-in before boarding. The cruise tickets are arranged for the second deck. The entire cruise lasts approximately 60 minutes, with no disembarkation during the journey. ②Dafosi Temple: Lights turn on at 19:00, and entry stops at 21:00. Photography is prohibited inside the halls. Please maintain silence within the temple. Only exterior pavilions may be photographed. ③Late-night snack is an optional activity, and expenses are at your own cost. If you do not wish to experience it, you can return directly. ④The wind by the river at night can be strong, so prepare a light jacket; there will be a lot of walking throughout, so it is recommended to wear comfortable flat shoes.
