Bowling may not be a traditional Chinese past-time, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy this indoor, low-impact, affordable sport in China's southern metropolis. Whether you want to switch up your weekend routine a little or celebrate an occasion, bowling is always a fun and social choice. If you're wondering where to go throw a couple of strikes in Guangzhou, check out these three bowling alleys.  

1) Dashijie BowlingView In Map
The first professional-quality bowling alley in Guangzhou, Dashijie is 38 lanes of beautiful, shiny, hardwood glory. Besides the spacious interior, Dashijie is also known for their dependable service, a dedicated children's bowling area, and popular group-buying deals (if you're willing to come a little early or a little late). Check out http://t.dianping.com/or http://gz.meituan.com/ for deals, but beware that weekends are extremely busy and you may find yourself waiting in line for longer than you end up bowling.

2) Huatai BowlingView In Map
Huatai Bowling is one of the older bowling institutions in Guangzhou, offering world-standard AMF bowling equipment for those in the know, plus a VIP lane for those who prefer to bowl in style away from the riff-raff. If you're a morning bowler, come early; the low prices can attract quite a crowd and by 10:00 the line is often more than an hour long. If you're a nighttime bowler, come after 23:00 for free shoe rental (normally 5 RMB).

3) Top Bowl (Debao)View In Map
With its lovely lakeside location, Top Bowl is a great place to head if the weather turns nasty during your afternoon in the park.
