About Guangzhou
--------------------------------
Guangzhou (also known as Canton) is the third largest Chinese city and the largest city in South Central China. Located on the 
Pearl River, about 120 km (75 mi) north-northwest of Hong Kong and 145 km (90 mi) north of Macau, Guangzhou serves as an 
important national transportation hub and trading port. Guangzhou has a humid, hot sub-tropical climate. The annual average 
temperature is 21.8 °C (71 °F). Autumn, from October to December, is very moderate, cool and windy, and is the best travel time.
