What to do in Panyu? by MBATF
Here I am in Panyu, after bouncing around between Taiwan, HK, and the US. What is there to do in Panyu? I can't even find a Starbuck within 20 miles radius... Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
What I do in Panyu from time to time is, collect rental, light up a cigarette. finish it, and go. If someone lets me know there is someone to hangout with for a beer or smoke, then I delay my return. Read More
