Canton Tower, one of the tallest structures in China, offers sweeping views over the Pearl River, and its upper levels include some of the most extreme observation experiences in the country.

Observation Deck Ticket

An observation deck ticket covers the main viewing floors, giving 360-degree views over Guangzhou’s skyline and the Pearl River below.

Adventure Combo Ticket

An adventure combo ticket adds access to thrill attractions near the top, including a Ferris wheel at extreme height and glass-floor walkways.

Is the Adventure Combo Worth It?

Thrill-seekers get genuine extra value from the adventure attractions, which are among the highest of their kind in the world; those simply wanting the view do fine with the standard observation ticket.
