According to the official website of Canton Tower (广州塔), retired military personnel from outside Guangzhou province can enter the tower for free with their retirement certificate, but only on certain days and times.
Here are the specifics:
- Retired military personnel from other provinces can visit the tower at night or during special events without buying a ticket. However, they need to show their valid retirement certificate.
- On regular weekdays (Monday to Friday), retired military personnel from outside Guangzhou province can purchase tickets with 20% off after showing their valid retirement certificate.
Note that this policy may be subject to change, so it’s always best to check with the tower directly or verify on another reliable source before planning your visit.
