The end of 2010 sees three blockbusters Let the Bullets Fly, If You Are The One 2 and The Orphan of the Zhaos, which are sure to take crowds to the telies.

Let the Bullets Fly

The movie Let the Bullets Fly was shot in Kaiping in Guangdong Province, which has originally been a region of major emigration abroad, and a melting pot of ideas brought back by overseas Chinese. The Watchtowers of Kaiping were first constructed in the early Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Initially they were constructed to guard against floods and by 1920s and 1930s were more than 3,000 of these structures. Now about 1,466 watchtowers have been left intact. Many of them incorporate architectural features from China and the West.

Transportation: visitors can take a passenger coach or drive a car from Guangzhou to Kaiping. The journey takes about 2 hours.
