CNY Family Gathering in Guangzhou 2026

On March 1, 2026, we went to Guangzhou to celebrate the Spring Festival and have Chinese New Year dinner with our family. We took the high-speed train from Shenzhen Station and arrived at Guangzhou East Station at 11:00am. 

Uncle and Aunty booked a table in our hotel for lunch together.

Afterwards, we went to Chunyang Temple (純陽觀) to hold a memorial ceremony for our grandparents.

I found my grandparents photo for memory.

It shows an old family photo taken in 1974.

When we left, we passed the Siqin Pavilion (思親亭).

The words "The Way of Nature" are carved on the stone.

The dinner would be held in the “LUMINA (星寰)”.

I selfie with my wife and brother.

Then we took a group photo in the platform.

Minda’s brother worked in Henderson and it is the Henderson Land Group 50^th anniversary.

My mother took a photo with her sisters and brother.

During dinner, I took a photo with my cousins.

The seventh uncle (七姨丈) brough his collection of Moutai (茅台). It is very special and only 38%!

We drunk it with uncle.

Also ask our cousins to try it.

It is very happy gathering.

At then end, we took a group photo outside the restaurant.

During the Spring Festival, my cousin (彬彬) used AI technology to bring old photos to life.

In this morning, we took a train back to Hong Kong.
