Commercial Port Sotto Portico

The landscapes of Commercial Port Sotto Portico include the Small Park Historical and Cultural Blocks (such as Shantou Customs Bell Tower, Nansheng Department Store, Shantou General Post Office Building, the Museum of the Culture of Opening the Commercial Port, The Stage of the Palace-Temple of Old Mother, the Former Site of the CPC Central Committee's Red Communication Station, Museum of August 1 Nanchang Uprising,  Historical Museum of Cai Chusheng, Hu Wenhu Building, etc.) and Zhongshan Park. This is the birthplace of the commercial port of around 100 years of Shantou. The Palace-Temple of Old Mother that has gone through vicissitudes has witnessed the development of Shashantou, a small fishing village, which has gradually become a port with the ships from all over the world and a prosperous commercial port as well. After the opening of the commercial port in Shantou in 1860, a group of Chaoshan overseas Chinese returned to their hometowns to start their business, investing in the construction of railways, telephones, electric lights, telegraphs, trams, ships, waterworks, pharmaceutical factories, hospitals, overseas Chinese communication offices, etc., establishing Nansheng Department Store, Yongping Restaurant, Tuojiang Hostel, etc., developing the "Four-Yong  One-Shengping" District. They wrote the golden years from the early 20th Century to the 1930s.The symbol of prosperity is the Southeast Asia-style sotto portico ancient block that has been left. The circular radial road network layout of the ancient block makes the small park Zhongshan Memorial Pavilion at the core of the block. The small park pavilion is not only conspicuous in location, but also the homesickness of countless people from Chaoshan going to other countries to make a living, and it is the spiritual home of such people.

The landscapes of "Bay Sunset" includes Inner Bay, Queshi Scenic Area, Xidi Park, Shipaotai Park, Waterfront Promenade, Chaoshan Historical and Cultural Expo Center, Mayu Island, and East Coast Avenue. The beautiful Inner Bay is a bright mirror given to Shantou by the God. It is rippling with towering buildings on both banks and fishing lights along the coast, and reflects the sunrise and sunset of the Queshi Mountain and the rainbow-like shade of the bridge. Haibin Road and Nanbin Road are like arms holding the two pearls, Mayu Island and Luyu Island. The Hushi Bridge and the Bay Bridge are like two rainbows, and the bay is inlaid with a ring of "jewels" such as Hushi Scenic Area, Xidi Park, Shipaotai Park, Chaoshan Historical and Cultural Expo Center, Swimming and Diving Center, and East Coast New Town, etc..

The Chaoshan people's ancestors lived and reproduced here 8,000 years ago. Ancient Song Well, Prince's Building, Zong Bing (Commander-in-chief) House, Xiongzhen Pass, Solider Recruitment Tree, "Nan'ao No. 1" and other historical relics are nostalgic. When boarding the Treasure Island, we seem to see the red-headed ships loaded with porcelains and silks sailing southward. Qing'ao Bay Swimming Beach, Huanghuashan National Forest Park, Wuyu Island ("Migratory Bird Paradise"), and many temples, as well as groupers, lobsters, crabs, squids, abalones, oysters and other special products make visitors forget to return.
