Answer:
Hello Maggie, once again thank you for visiting our site.
Here's all about Zhuhai, China.
Zhuhai is one of the five largest special economic zones in China. It has a population of over 1 million people, but if that's not enough big-city for you, the Special Administrative Region of Macau is nearby, and Hong Kong is just across the Pearl River Delta.
Zhuhai is in a leading position in PCB production with a complete supply chain involving over 20 companies. For many years its pharmaceutical industry output has ranked third in the Guangdong province. Zhuhai is also known as one of China's cleanest and prettiest cities.
Zhuhai became a city in 1979, a year before it was named as one of the first Special Economic Zones (SEZ). The implementation of this policy is logical as Zhuhai is located on the strategic position facing Macau, in the identical fashion by which Shenzhen faces Hong Kong. Zhuhai encompasses three separate townships. Gongbei on the border with Macau, is the most thriving place and the major tourist area.
It takes only 1.5 hours from Zhuhai to Guangzhou, or to Shenzhen. Zhuhai Airport is located at the southwest tip of Sanzao Island in the West Zhuhai, 31 kilometers away from the urban areas. The airport is surrounded by the sea on three sides With all the indexes reaching the international advanced level, the airport has reached the standards of the international first-class civil airport. Zhuhai is principally engaged in the development and distribution of properties. The Company mainly develops residential quarters, including residential properties and relevant facilities such as shops, clubs and garages.
The Gongbei Underground Mall is interesting as with the Lotus Road for shopping or just a casual walkabout. Also, along Lotus Road, there are two rows of mini outdoor bars stalls.
The main tourist attraction in the city is the Statue of Fishing Girl located along Lover's Road in which
said to be the symbol of Zhuhai.
From Zhuhai, one can just walk across the border into Macau and need to pass through immigration.
