- The Ancestral Temple - At 8 am, guests will be picked up from their centrally located hotel in Guangzhou and taken by private vehicle to Foshan. The first stop is the Zu Temple, also known as The Temple of the Ancestors. Originally dating back to the latter half of the 11th century, it was restored in 1372 after a fire. This temple is dedicated to the God of the North, the Ruler of the Waters.

Visitors may also have the chance to witness a lion dance here.
