City of the Goat - Guangzhou | Welcome to Sweet Surrender

I didn’t buy this Limited Edition CubicFun 3D Puzzle of Guangdong Arcade Building. It was given to me by the Tourism Administration of Guangdong Province, China. I went there in 2017 for an official trip. I am not sure how many of these were given out but I just can’t seem to find them anywhere online. I’m guessing that this is specifically designed for the tourism administration as one of their corporate souvenirs.

I am not into this kind of puzzle. Almost 5 years later, I opened this up and assembled it. Hahaha… For the sake of uploading a video on my YouTube channel because I ran out of content ;p It is quite an easy puzzle. I’m sure those in primary school or even kindergarten know how to do it. It took me almost an hour though. If it’s not because of filming it, I guess I could complete it in a shorter time frame.

After making this, I did find it quite fun to do. I don’t mind doing some other 3D puzzles if I got my hands on them. However, I won’t specifically buy it 😀 I do not mind getting it as a gift though. Anyway, do you like to play with this kind of puzzle?

I’ve been to China a few times for work purposes but I’ve never been there for leisure. I did blog about it before but not about the work. It’s more on the places I’ve been to while on duty and hotels that I stayed in when I was there. Funnily, I did not have any post on Guangzhou where I got this puzzle because the trip was too overwhelming. I had no time to take many photos of the trip except for work report purposes.

Extremely lagging post. So many pending. Went to Guangzhou for the first time in April, for transit only. Ausotel Smart Baiyun Airport was recommended by a friend in Guangzhou. Not entitled to stay in Pullman so have to stay a slightly further away, it’s less than 3KM from airport *LOL*, they have free shuttle.

Left: Approaching…
Right: The bed and pillows were pretty comfy, just too bad couldn’t sleep too long as we had to rush to the airport very early in the morning for flight to Luoyang. It claimed that it’s soundproof but my colleague’s room wasn’t that soundproof. As for mine, I didn’t hear anything though.

Left: The rooms is surprisingly spacious. The toilet and shower are not combined so it’s great if you have more than one person in the room. The vanity area is open concept with all the necessary toiletries.
Right: The basic coffee/tea making facility is available.

Free WiFi is available. The hotel can be considered rather new in that area. Great for transit. If you need to catch early flight, they can prepare packed breakfast. I can’t remember what we were given, I only remember yogurt and apple ;p

Good thing there’s restaurant in the hotel. There is nothing much around though. It’s like a dead town at night.

The room rate wasn’t very cheap, it cost us almost RM400 per night inclusive of breakfast. Well… What to do… It’s the most convenient and decent place to stay so that we could catch the early morning flight without the rush.

Address: Intersection of Hang’er Road and 3rd Konggang Road, Southeastern Working Section of Baiyun International Airport, Baiyun, Baiyun District, 510470 Guangzhou, China
