Guangzhou is the capital and a political, economic, and cultural center of Guangdong Province and is the third largest city in China. A giant metropolis, Guangzhou is home to both gleaming towers and leafy alleys, and its history as a strategic trade port to the South China Sea has afforded it a colonial background and culturally diverse population that combine to give Guangzhou a cosmopolitan flair.
