On day 2 with Matt, we started with a 7 mile run around the Sun Yat-sen University campus, then along the river. We crossed the river, but then ran into dead ends, so we turned around. We then headed to Shamian island and the White Swan hotel for Dim Sum. Walking around Shamian, we ran into some classmates that were showing some exchange students around Guangzhou. After leaving Shamian, we headed to Yuexiu Park. Here we saw the 5 rams statue - a tribute to the 5 immortals who founded Guangzhou - as well as a lot of beautiful trees and flowers. We also visited the Guangzhou city museum, which has some cannons from the Opium wars, which apparently make a good modern day playground. Lastly, we saw a memorial to Sun Yat-sen.
