Beijing Road Ancient Avenue is a bustling pedestrian street in the heart of Guangzhou's Yuexiu District. It is one of the city's oldest commercial areas, with a history spanning over 2,000 years. The street is lined with modern shops, department stores, and restaurants, but its main attraction lies beneath your feet: a glass-covered excavation site that reveals layers of ancient road surfaces from the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties.
