Guangdong, know to westerners in the past as Canton, is the major city in the Guangdong Province. As we crossed the river into the city, we saw many traditional boats on the water, with newer modern buildings in the background, some of them still under construction in 1982.
There were many two-wheeled carts, and many,many bicycles in those days. The woman in traditional garb pulling her cart is one of my favorites.
There were were open air markets out in the streets, including a vendor selling fresh meat.
We saw many old brick buildings. There was a plaza in the middle of town that more more open and spacious while most of the streets were quite narrow.
