South China - Guangzhou

[VonSauer]

Hi,

Does anyone know a reliable escort or escort agency in Guanzhou?

There are tons of ads here and there but it seems most are fake with girls that don't look like on the pictures.

Thanks!

Any advice welcome.

Is there a map that shows all these massage parlor in Guangzhou? I am in Imperial traders hotel and looking for a place near my hotel. Can any one help me?

Has there been an increase in Police Raids recently?

The place where I usually find the SWs have been empty, with a lot of police / security gaurds (you can never tell) patrolling the area at night. It seems like the purpose is to scare off any SW in those areas.

The MPs that usually offer FS I frequent haven't been doing so either.

Just wondering if there were more raids. I thought this crackdown would blow over by 2015. When I first arrived in China a year ago, the locals told me everything will go back to normal soon. I've been seeing the opposite.

Long time lurker both in Beijing forum and now Guangzhou for some short time. Hope to start giving back to the ISG community.

I recently relocated from Beijing and is now looking if I can find similar establishment as I frequented in Beijing. In BJ I enjoyed visiting the massage place focusing on the massage, you get a room w shower and bed and after changing to the gorgeous underwear you get a decent oil massage with some teasing and some minor action following.

Here in Guangzhou I have tried two saunas (shopping centre & hotel) in the Gangding area and got myself a massage and some hand action and roaming as a finale. But I do prefer a little simpler arrangement skipping the lounge chair and food.

So any suggestions for me?

I live in west ZJNT and work just east of Tianhe Park so preferable in these areas or in between.

How simple?! If you're happy cutting out the shower.

I'd suggest heading over the road to WuYang Cun. Coming out of the metro station and turning left down the main road (I. E. Walking away from ZJNT) and towards the Vanguard supermarket, you'll see an LED sign on the side of a bakery pointing left. The massage joint is upstairs, third or fourth floor. Massage 128 rmb, tips 100 or 200 depending, apparently, on how attractive the ML considers herself!

If you want the shower, keep going past the supermarket and in to the Great Wall Hotel diagonally opposite. Go to the sauna on the fifth (seventh?) floor and negotiate according to your preference. Intel from another board says that FS comes in just over 500, though you can call ahead for a discount.

Hi,

The Guangzhou to HK "straight through" train schedule hasn't increased in frequency in the last 13 years, so it's been getting progressively harder to get tickets as demand has increased. One solution is an option that is much more accessible in frequency as well as a bit cheaper, although a bit less convenient, because you need to walk across the border at Shenzhen along with the masses. But because the trains go much more frequently (about every 20 minutes as opposed to every 2 hours roughly (as with the straight-through option) it can often actually get you to HK quicker than the straight through option would have. {S N I P}

Valid suggestion! One point is that depending on the time of day, the crowds of school kids, parallel traders, mainland tourists etc can add 30 to 45 minutes to the time taken to get through China and Hong Kong Immigration points in SZ.

You are quite correct about the outside location of the ticket office. Good information. It is hard to find if you can't read Chinese as the English signs are often ambiguous or lack clarity. And night time the task more difficult. It seems that quite a lot of the newer stations (such as Guangzhou South) locate their ticket offices away from the main concourse and often on the outside of the building. The reason is most probably to reduce congestion at peak times.

BTW, I have passed many Guangzhou-HK through trains over the years, and they have always seemed to be at least 50% empty (or more).

I appreciate your dilemma. My suggestion is to use a train ticketing service such as http://www.chinahighlights.com/china-trains/. I believe that they can deliver to your hotel, or you can pick up from the station or one of their offices.

But because the trains go much more frequently (about every 20 minutes as opposed to every 2 hours roughly (as with the straight-through option) it can often actually get you to HK quicker than the straight through option would have.

Here's how you do it: Buy a ticket to Shenzhen (I recommend the East Ticket Office -- accesible from a separate, little utilized entrance to the East Station around the side of the building. Just get the taxi to let you out before he drives into the station -- you don't want to go in; walk around the right side of the building (doesn't even look like you should be walking there! But you'll see the entrance sign in 30 seconds; it's very near. You can get to the ticket office before you even go through bag security. Tickets to SZ are 79 RMB or 99.5 for First Class -- nice seats, and even have power outlets to charge your laptop / device. About 1 hour and 15 minutes later, you'll pull into SZ station. Follow the masses and look for the signs that say Hong Kong. You need to go up one escalator at one point. Then it's just one line to leave China and another to enter HK. Once you're through you'll be at LoWu station and can use your Octopus card (or buy one or a Single Journey ticket) and walk down to the train (KCR) which will take you to Hung Hom for around 30 HKD (I'm guessing) And they also run very frequently -- I'm guessing about once every 5 minutes.

Good luck!!

I just checked the Chinahighlights website and found, on the http://www.chinahighlights.com/trave...kong-train.htm GZ-HK page:

"The search form at www.chinahighlights.com/china-trains/ cannot be used, so book through www.chinahighlights.com/hotel/contactus.asp by sending an email with your name, telephone number, time and date of travel, and passport copies, and we will process your booking accordingly.
"You can book 60 days in advance at most. We are considering adding Hong Kong trains to the search form in future."

Hi Guys.
Sorry to post here, but not sure what else to do.
Can anyone advise how I can book a ticket from Guangzhou east to hung hom in Hong Kong.
I have looked online, but the mt3 website says I need to collect tickets in Hong Kong which won't be practical as I am going the other way.
There does not seem to be a website from which I can make a booking whilst outside China. Currently in UK arranging trip.
My worry if I have to wait until in China is that the trains will be booked up as I am going back to HK during the canton fair.

My worry if I have to wait until in China is that the trains will be booked up as I am going back to HK during the canton fair.

I've spent a few hours trying to work this out online, but,....

I wouldn't worry about this at all.

There are a dozen trains daily and even during the Canton Trade fair, I've managed to get on with just a few hours advance purchase.

But if you must, then just contact your hotel and instruct them to pre-purchase your specified ticket.

Majority / most Guangzhou hotels regularly do this and will probably just charge you 5 or so yuan handling fee.

Hopefully someone here has experience of this route and can shed some light for me.

Thanking you in advance.

I am in the Baiyun district near the convention center. Any recommendations for massage with extras?

Last I was here in Guangzhou I visited the Deyi Sauna which was okay.

I just found this interesting article about Foshan from 2013.

Hi dear brothers,

Visiting HK & Canton Fairs in Apr-May 2015. Wanted to experience the night-life and sex scene in both the places. Would appreciate any inputs from you guys.

BTW I am from India, Mumbai. Need any help here let me know.

Ciao,

I've used loads of fake Kamagra packets I bought in Bangkok and never had a problem with them. They always worked like a charm for me.

I found a link to a peer reviewed paper on it from Nature. You can read the entire article. It says 87% of the men in the study had an improvement in their erections from the drug.

http://www.nature.com/ijir/journal/v.../3900885a.html

You should be careful and know the difference between fake and generic medications. Kamagra is generic Viagra, made in country where Pfizer no longer has the patent and charged monopoly price. The medication ingradient for Viagra and Kamagra is the same. Fake is fake, meaning it is just inert powder of something (chalk?) pressed together and stamped into the Vigara shape and dyed blue. If you think fake worked very well for you, then you would not need ED medication at all.

I saw the article you linked to when I Googled phentolamine. What I cited was a review of the medication from Oxford for its use in ED, not just one article. I am not here to engage in a scientific debate of the merits of different medical studies, and I am not qualified to do so, but you yourself were complaining in your earlier post that phentolamine did not work very well when you tried it.

What I said was, when you went into a drug store intending to buy Viagra, and they handed you a box of something, read the label to make sure that was what you had gone in to get.
