Guangzhou’s iconic Canton Tower is stealing the spotlight this November as it illuminates the sky for the 15th National Games of China! 🌆 The 604-meter marvel – nicknamed 'Slim Waist' for its elegant curves – is dazzling visitors with nightly light shows in red, purple, and green, representing Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao’s collaboration as co-hosts.
💡 Why it’s lit: The Games’ opening ceremony transformed the tower into a symbol of unity for the Greater Bay Area (GBA), a mega-region pushing innovation and cultural ties. Its color-coded glow mirrors the event’s slogan: 'Play for the Dreams in GBA.'
📸 Pro tip for travelers: Head to Haixinsha Square for the best views! The tower’s LED displays also feature animations of athletes – a nod to the 15,000+ competitors rallying across the region this year.
