广东省博物馆
Guangdong Museum
The Guangdong Provincial Museum displays the context of the province through archaeology, ceramics, calligraphy and painting, natural history and the changes in the Pearl River Delta, placing Guangzhou into a larger area extending from the inland mountains to the South China Sea. The contemporary buildings in Zhujiang New Town also form a valuable contrast with the historical sites in Liwan and Yuexiu.
