- Museum of the Western Han Dynasty Mausoleum of the Nanyue King - This mausoleum, dating back around 2000 years, offers a deep dive into ancient history. Located at Xianggang Hill in the north-western part of downtown, the tomb is accessed via a stone gate leading 20 meters underground. The 100-square-meter complex, made up of approximately 750 grit-stone pieces, is divided into seven chambers with various functions. The front chamber features rough, colorful cloud paintings on its walls and ceiling, while other chambers display bone ashes, clothing, arrow tips, and everyday items, providing a vivid glimpse into a luxurious ancient world.
- Temple of the Six Banyan Trees & Flower Pagoda (Liurong Temple) - Built in 537, this temple is a significant Buddhist cultural site. It houses three large copper Buddhist statues, the largest in Guangdong Province. The top story of the pagoda contains a thousand-Buddha copper pillar from the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). The 184-foot pagoda appears to have nine stories from the outside but actually has 17 levels inside. Its colorful exterior carvings have earned it the nickname “Flower Pagoda.”

Known for its numerous Western classical buildings, it has been designated a key protected relic of the state and is referred to as the “Ninth Sight of Guangzhou.”
