What you can expect

  • Start your day with a comfortable private vehicle ride as you depart from Guangzhou and head towards the historic city of Foshan, renowned for its deep connection to martial arts and traditional craftsmanship.

    Your first stop is the Foshan Ancestral Temple, a majestic complex dedicated to the Northern Emperor and an iconic symbol of Foshan’s cultural heritage. As you explore the temple, admire its intricate wood carvings, ceramic sculptures, and traditional architectural style, all of which reflect the artistic excellence of the region.

    The temple also houses the Wong Fei-hung Memorial Hall, a tribute to the legendary martial artist and folk hero, Wong Fei-hung, who is synonymous with Foshan’s martial arts history. Here, learn about the rich legacy of Cantonese Kung Fu and its pivotal role in shaping local traditions.

    Next, experience a live Lion Dance and Kung Fu performance that will immerse you in the strength, discipline, and dynamic movements of traditional martial arts. Watch as skilled performers demonstrate a combination of martial arts weapons, acrobatics, and cultural symbolism, showcasing the spirit and agility of Lingnan’s martial arts traditions.

    Then you will dine on a tasty Chinese lunch at a local establishment.

    Continue on to the Nanfeng Ancient Furnace, one of the oldest and most famous kilns in Foshan, where you’ll get a hands-on experience of traditional pottery making. Watch skilled artisans at work as they craft beautiful ceramics using methods passed down through generations. You’ll also have the opportunity to try your hand at spinning the pottery wheel and creating your very own ceramic masterpiece—perfect for taking home as a souvenir.

    Finally, head to the Shiwan Art Ceramics Market, a bustling marketplace famous for its local tiles, pottery, and sculptures. This is the place to explore the exquisite craftsmanship of Foshan’s ceramics. Wander through the market to admire the diverse selection of handmade pottery, decorative tiles, and unique ceramic sculptures.
