Ms.Maria(USA) said:

What time does the boarder close? If we arrive in Guangzhou at 17:10 will it give us sufficient time to clear the customs to get back to Hong Kong on the same night?

Ms.SONIA214(China) replied:

Hi, Maria:
It is Ok to go back to Hongkong at the same night.You can take a train to Luohu, shenzhen and go back to Hongkong, the luohu boarder is working until 12pm. Or you can take a direct train from guangzhou to Hongkong, the last train is 21:30. So i think it is enough time.

Mr.Sam replied:

If you take the bus, you will pass the Huanggang Pass, and it is open for 24 hours. While if you take the train from Guangzhou to Hongkong, then you will pass the LuohuPass, it will be closed before 12:00 p.m. during the night time. Allin all, time is enough for you to clear the customs either you take bus or the express train.

Mr.bing replied:

Are you sure "chime long resort" is the right name? I don't hear about it.

Nov. 9,2009 01:39
Mr.Matthew Hung replied:

The Chime-Long Resort is made up of different theme parks including Chime-Long Water Park, Chime-Long Paradise, Chime-Long International Circus, Xiangjiang Safari Park, Guangzhou Crocodile Park. It is a new popular destination for tourists.

It is ok to visit one or two parks within one day. There are free buses going from one park to another. The bus stops outside the exit of the subway. All the signs in the park are written in both Chinese and English. So, it is very convenient for you to visit there on your own.

I’ m a local in Guangzhou. But I'm not a tour guide. I just do this as a part time job. I’ll be available on one of the weekend and Monday. I can speak Mandarin, Cantonese and English very well.

If you need a tour guide or an interpreter, this is my email cyterryhung@gmail.com

ChenJiaCi, Beijing Road,ShangXiaJiu, that depends on your interest.

Canton fair is held in PaZhou. It's far from the city. But it's convinient to go there by metro. It's about 20mins.
