Mountain delicacies: Treasures of Guangdong's cuisine

Guangdong is home to numerous mountains, and its warm, humid climate fosters an abundance of delicious mountain delicacies.

Various edible fungi are a firm favorite among people in Guangdong, frequently appearing on dining tables. They have a tender, smooth, and springy texture on the palate that leaves a lingering aftertaste.

In the mountainous areas of Qingyuan, freshly picked bamboo shoots are fragrant, sweet and nutrious, making them a beloved delicacy among food lovers.

Chunsha Amomum from Yangjiang is a renowned southern Chinese medicinal herb, which mbodies the wisdom of the Lingnan people in health preservation.

Camellia seeds grown in the mountainous areas of Shaoguan in northern Guangdong can not only be pressed for oil, but their by-products can also be made into shampoo and body wash—making them truly a treasure from head to toe.

Fruits from the remote mountains, once unknown to the world, now hang on the branches in the early morning and reach dinner tables by evening, all thanks to a robust logistics network. They cross mountains and seas, set to become sweet and fresh icons of Guangdong specialties.
