After the Second Opium War, the British and French powers took a fancy to the geographical location here and wanted to use it as a base. So the British forced the Qing government to artificially dig a stream (now Shajiyong) in the north of Shamian to separate it from the land, and the island became an independent concession, which is now Shamian Island.

Although the name of the island is Shamian, there is no beach on the island, but there are a large number of European-style buildings, just like the Bund in Shanghai, with gothic, baroque, rococo, neoclassicism, eclecticism and other styles of buildings.
