About Business class flights to Guangzhou

Guangzhou City

A major transport and trading hub, Guangzhou, the capital of Chinese province of the same name is an ancient port city and home to around 1.3 million people. Formerly known as Canton, it has all the allures of a typical modern Chinese city; tinted glass skyscrapers, heavy traffic and crowded streets. Despite all this, the city has retained most of its traditional allures and this fascinating mix inspires travellers to book business class flights to Guangzhou. And travellers often come across this cultural amalgamation while they visit its riverfront, parks, markets and places of worship and dining hubs. As a destination Guangzhou has enough to engage you for few days.

The city that once acted as hotbed of revolutionary activities and later a battleground for nationalist and communist forces is now one of the fastest emerging cities in China. Deng Xiaoping’s 1978’s Open Door policy must be credited for it that help this ancient port to regain its ground as a commercial gateway of china. The city got further refurbished when it was chosen as the venue for 2010 Asian games. Subway system improved, air pollution controlled, dirty neighbourhood tidied up and parks and streets got a facelift. These improvements added to the aura of the city.
