The GSYO has represented the municipality of Guangzhou on numerous friendship tours and cultural exchange programs around the world, visiting such cities as Frankfurt, Berlin, Sydney, Jakarta, Singapore, Lyon, Prague, Riva del Garda, Tokyo, Fukuoka, Valencia, Madrid, Barcelona and Verbier. It has also appeared in numerous Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Chengdu, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Tianjin. Wherever it goes, the GSYO garners critical and popular acclaim.
