   During the day, people can walk the 'Scenery Corridor' alongside the river, enjoying the beautiful water scenes. The corridor, about 23 kilometers (14 miles) long, is actually a dike built especially for appreciating the scenery.  In addition to the attractive water scenes, people can also find historic and artistic buildings in Guangzhou including the Huangpu Military Academy (the first military academy in Chinese history), the Xinghai Concert Hall (which boasts an unusual elegant appearance), the Historic Site in Shamian (which includes hundreds of buildings in different architectural styles), and Tianzi Dock (which was used for greeting officials hundreds of years ago).
 

  Soak in the gentle river waves, colorfully lit bridges, skyline of Guangzhou city and the unique colonial architecture on Shamian Island in a relaxing and breezy evening cruise on the Pearl river. The cruise takes between one to two hours depending on whether the cruise includes dinner or not.
