Destination write-up

Here’s the write-up that features on your print.

Along the banks of the Pearl River, where trade winds have carried merchants and monks for two thousand years, Guangzhou unfolds. This is a city of commerce and courtyards, where glass towers rise beside temple eaves, and the pulse of southern China beats through crowded lanes.

Climb the Canton Tower for a view over the winding river and Tianhe's skyline. Wander Shamian Island, where colonial-era façades and banyan trees line quiet, cobbled streets. At the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, marvel at the intricate wood and stone carvings that speak of dynasties past. Then find calm in the incense-filled courtyards of the Temple of the Six Banyan Trees.

Beyond its landmarks, Guangzhou reveals itself at the table, birthplace of Cantonese cuisine and yum cha. Wander the stalls of Qingping Market, where herbs and spices fill the air, or join the crowds at the Canton Fair. As dusk falls, the river glows with lantern light, and the old port city hums quietly on.

Print size & quality

Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).

Framing options

Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.

We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.

Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
