Guangzhou Photo Gallery - Pazhou

Pazhou in Haizhu district is famous for the Canton Fair, a huge trade show where buyers from around the world come to source Made in China goods. This area is not new to foreign trade as it was already the Qing Dynasty's only port from 1757-1842.

To the west of the convention centre where all the business action takes place and around Modiesha metro station is an emerging new district where skyscrapers of all shapes or sizes are under construction.

The district is bounded by the Pearl River to the north, which is home to the Party Pier, a former brewery from the 1980s that has been revitalized into a drinking and entertainment venue. The deck has a skyline view but there was no action whatsoever during the beautiful afternoon.
