1⃣ Take the Metro Line 2 to Sea World Station, exit C, preferably around 4 pm. Cross the road, about 3-500 meters, and you'll arrive at Nanhai E-Cool
2⃣ Nanhai E-Cool is a creative district with various styled shops, coffee shops, dessert shops. It's great for walking around and taking photos
3⃣ Exit Nanhai E-Cool and follow Liyuan Road for about 800 meters to reach G&G Creative Community.
Along the way, the streets are shaded by green trees, quiet and full of life, perfect for a walk
G&G Creative Community is a renovated old factory building, very stylish, with various shops and exhibitions. It's great for taking photos, walking kids, and just sitting and chatting comfortably. Pet-friendly.
4⃣ Return from G&G and follow Taizi Road to Sea World Plaza, about 1.2km. Along the way, you'll encounter a 130-year-old banyan tree, where you can sit and rest. By this time, it's nearly dusk, walking on Taizi Road with a cool breeze accompanying you, you'll feel very pleasant
5⃣ After passing Sea World Plaza, you'll reach the Sea World Art Center. The building itself is worth seeing, and there are often exhibitions inside. Passing through the art center, you'll reach the seaside, where there are outdoor coffee shops
It's recommended to have a cup of coffee here, with the sky still showing the afterglow of sunset, and the moon rising from the sea
6⃣ By now, you must be hungry! It's suggested to walk back to the Sea World Station exit C, where there's a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant that's quite good, known for its 'fair, pretty, and straight' quality. The 'soulful rice', 'piggy milk tea', and a few dozen yuan can comfort the fatigue of half a day
After eating, you can directly enter the subway to return!
Very version of the experience, originally for not buying day tickets regret, did not expect the Zhuhai-Hong Kong-Macao Bridge at night is very beautiful. The port in the distance of the night, when crossing, took her beauty, colorful!
Definitely foreigner friendly and you’ll find tons of restaurants where English is spoken (although Chinese staff are friendly and accommodating). Plenty of shopping and gyms around too and of course, the ever famous Sea World but there’s a lot more around and worth it to just walk around and see things…for foreigners needing the comfort of other foreigners, it’s cool though you can just as easily avoid if you want. Mire to the area than just bars and English.

Very good, take the children to understand the heavy equipment of the powerful countries
It is still very recommended to go for 3 hours. Blow the sea breeze to see the scenery. There are also many small game performances on the cruise, which is very comfortable.
I feel that the service is not bad when I am doing the boat.
