The Museum of Huanghuagang Uprising Headquarters is a massive blue-brick house of the typical Lingnan residential style. The house, set in a south-north direction on a site of a more than 500 square meters, was built as a residence for a Qing-dynasty official and known as the “Chaoyi Mansion”. In April 1911, Huang Xing arrived in Guangzhou from Hong Kong and based the headquarters of the planned uprising in this house in Xiaodongying, which is the closest point to the Mansion of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi of the Qing Dynasty (the site of the present-day Guangdong Provincial Department of Civil Affairs). On April 27 (the 29th day of the third month in the Chinese lunar calendar), a dare-to-die squad of 100 soldiers, headed by Huang Xing, launched an attack from there against the governor's mansion. Although it was not successful, the uprising ushered in the Revolution of 1911, which eventually toppled the Qing rule and put an end to the feudal dictatorship which had ruled China for more than two millennia.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the house became the property of Li Zhangda, Vice Chairman of the Guangdong Provincial Government and a pioneer of the patriotic democratic movement. In 1956, Li Songgang, son of Li Zhangda, donated the house to the government as his father had instructed him before he passed away. In 1958, the house was converted into a museum. In 1962, it was declared a protected cultural heritage site by the Guangdong People's Government.

The Museum of Biology, standing on the Guangzhou south campus of Sun Yet-sen University, is based in the Ma Wenhui Hall, which was built with donations from Hong Kong compatriots. The antecedent of the museum is the Animal, Insect and Plant Specimens Section of the School of Life Science, with the earliest specimen dating back to 1817. At present, the Museum of Biology holds 220,000 plant specimens, 600,000 insect specimens, and 30,000 stuffed, soaked, bone and fossil specimens, as well as invaluable specimens of ancient creature fossils.

The museum is China's only university biological museum holding a large collection of specimens of precious Chinese and foreign creatures and featuring prominent South China faunal and floral characteristics; it enjoys a prestigious reputation in the international biological community.

By taking advantage of the university's educational and research resources, the museum provides thematic popular-science lecture series and hands-on experiments on microorganisms, plants, animals and ancient animals for primary and secondary school students from time to time. These programs not only tap the university biological museum's advantageous resources, butalso enrich the extracurricular activities of these students.

The Museum of Generalissimo Sun Yat-sen's Mansion is based on the site of the former Generalissimo Mansion, a national-level protected cultural heritage site. The former Generalissimo Mansion stands at 18 Dongsha Street, Fangzhi Road, Haizhu District, Guangzhou, on the bank of the Pearl River. Between 1917 and 1925, Sun Yet-sun twice built the Generalissimo Mansion, where he spearheaded China's democratic revolution. He made many crucial decisions in the mansion, such as the decisions to initiate the Constitutional Protection Movement, quench the Armed Rebellion of Guangzhou Merchants Group, fight for the recovery of Guangyu, and restructure Kuomintang; it was also here that Sun Yet-sun envisioned the first cooperation between the Communist Party and Kuomintang. All these had far-reaching implications for China's democratic revolution.
