Canton Tower (广州塔)

The Canton Tower (广州塔) at 600 metres is the tallest structure in China and the world's second tallest TV tower. The observation deck at 488m offers jaw-dropping panoramas across the Pearl River and Guangzhou's skyline; the "bubble tram" gondola ride around the outside of the tower at 450m is one of the most dramatic outdoor sightseeing experiences in Asia. Inside the tower there is also a sky-drop ride, a 360-degree revolving restaurant, and a themed indoor attraction zone for children. Tickets to the basic observation level cost CNY 150 adults / CNY 100 children (approx. HKD 162/108); premium bubble tram adds CNY 80. TripAdvisor: 4.4/5 from 18,000+ reviews. Located at Chigang Metro station.
