The location of Guangzhou New Baiyun Airport is relatively off-center, and there are no places to play and eat around.
I wonder when the subject will arrive in Guangzhou? Because the international flight of Baiyun Airport is processed three hours in advance, there are still five hours available after deducting the three hours from the eight-hour connecting time. The use of five hours to arrive at the airport in different time periods is different.
If the subject arrives during the day, you can take the subway directly under the airport to Tianhe, Zhujiang New Town and Guang Zhouta to have a look. But pay attention to the traffic time (it takes at least 2 hours to get back and forth). Although the subway can reach Tianhe, Zhujiang New Town and Guang Zhouta, you have to change to the subway halfway if you want to walk less. The transportation time from the airport to Tianhe (there is no need to change to the north extension of Metro Line 3), from the airport to Zhujiang New Town (from the north extension of Metro Line 3 to APM Line) and from the airport to Guang Zhouta (from the north extension of Metro Line 3 to APM Line) is almost the same, not counting the transfer time, and it takes at least 45-50 minutes for a single subway journey.
If it is evening time, I recommend you to go to Zhujiang New Town or Guang Zhouta. The night view is good.
If you arrive in the middle of the night, it is recommended to have a rest at the airport.
