Guangzhou Dim Sum Pilgrimage — Dim sum is the unwritten rule for breakfast.
This course allows you to experience the Yam Cha culture, where people enjoy tea and dim sum early in the morning just like Cantonese people. Famous taverns are most busy between 7 and 9 a.m., so it is quiet right after they open. Since most places use table QR codes for ordering, setting up WeChat Pay is essential. You can follow the route based on Changshou Road or Gongyuanqian Station on Subway Line 1.
