I. Nan 'ao Island

The largest and only island county in Guangdong Province, known as "the throat of Fujian and Guangdong, the barrier of eastern Guangdong", has always been the only place and transit point for southeast coastal trade, the main channel for Taiwan and maritime trade, and an important node of the Maritime Silk Road. The island is rich in resources, including Island National Forest Park, Green Bay National Ocean Park and Guangdong Nanpeng Islands National Nature Reserve.

Second, Shantou Small Park

Shantou small park is the commercial center and cultural center of Shantou old city. The arcades and streets in this area are basically modeled after the Paris block, and they are distributed radially in a fan shape. Together with the old neighborhoods on both sides, it starts from the old "Yancheng Head" in the east, reaches Hong Ting in the north, and reaches Shantou Port in the south, forming a prosperous commercial district and residential area with the architectural characteristics of 1930s.
