About New Yuanmingyuan Park
New Yuanmingyuan is modelled on the architecture of Beijing's Yuanmingyuan before it was burned, with eighteen of the original forty scenes selected and rebuilt at a 1:1 scale. It is divided into three major zones: the Imperial Architecture Complex, the Jiangnan Garden Complex and the Western Architecture Complex, which together recreate the splendour of the Qing dynasty. Theatrical performances such as 'Dreaming of the Old Yuanmingyuan' combine explosions, galloping horses and other spectacular elements and are well worth seeing.

Miaowan Island
Known by travellers as 'the Maldives of China,' this small island has the clearest, bluest waters in Zhuhai. Miaowan Island excels in both water and beaches: a coral sand beach wraps around half the bay, its sand as white as snow and as fine as dust. It is also the island in the Wanshan Archipelago farthest from the mainland, and it is dubbed 'the best fishing spot in Southeast Asia.' The drawback is that although this earthly paradise is becoming better known, its tourist facilities remain limited, and accommodation and transport are not very convenient.

Qi'ao Island
Unlike Zhuhai's other well-known islands, Qi'ao Island combines exceptional natural scenery with a long history and rich cultural heritage. On this island of less than 18 square kilometres, there are as many as 17 temples. The island also has the historic Baishi Old Street, with its grey tiles and brick walls, which seems to have slipped into a quiet, bygone era. In addition, the primitive, unadorned 'Nine Bays and Eighteen Peaks' landscape is truly enchanting!

Haibin Beach
A beach with pleasant surroundings, it is a good choice for those who lack time to leave the island but still want to see the sea. There are swimming areas, some water recreation facilities, and several seaside cafés nearby, making it comfortable for both play and relaxation. The swimming beach is very large, several hundred metres long, and draws big crowds in summer. It is divided into a pure swimming area and a water recreation zone, so visitors can play to their heart's content. In the evenings, the beach has all kinds of barbecue stalls, which are well worth trying.

Dong'ao Island
Island hopping is a highlight of Zhuhai. Since ancient times, people have longed to find secluded havens far from the world, and Dong'ao Island is an excellent choice. As the boat leaves Xiangzhou Pier, the sea grows ever bluer, and the view is enchanting. Nansha Bay, celebrated as the 'Diamond Beach,' is located here and is the most famous beach in the Wanshan Archipelago. Dong'ao also offers more water sports, such as surfing, diving and windsurfing, than most other islands.
