Things to do in Zhuhai - December 2024
Zhuhai, also known as Chuhai, is a prefecture-level city located on the west bank of the Pearl River estuary on the central coast of southern Guangdong province, People's Republic of China, on the southeastern edge of the Pearl River Delta. Its name literally means "pearl sea", which originates from the city's location at the mouth of the Pearl River meeting the South China Sea. Zhuhai borders Jiangmen to the west, Zhongshan to the north and Macau to the southeast, and shares maritime boundaries with Shenzhen and Hong Kong to the northeast across the estuary.
Situated in the Pearl River Delta, Zhuhai borders Macau on land and faces Hong Kong across the sea. Thanks to the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge, Zhuhai has become the only city in mainland China that shares land borders with Hong Kong and Macau. Although this Special Economic Zone of China is developing rapidly, it still has stunning coastlines, quiet islands, tranquil suburbs and vast green spaces.
Zhuhai attracts migrants from all over China, but this has not stopped the city from preserving its local cultural heritage. You can try delicacies of Chinese and European cuisines, as well as seafood dishes prepared according to recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation.
Along with beautiful city and countryside scenery, international standard golf courses, national award-winning thermal spas, internationally acclaimed theme parks and tropical island getaways, Zhuhai also hosts major events such as Airshow China, China International Circus Festival and the WTA Elite Trophy tennis tournament.
