Haizhu Square was built in 1953. It is located at the intersection of the central axis of Guangzhou’s old city area and the riverside landscape belt. It is a riverside square. It has witnessed historical events such as the bombing and reconstruction of Haizhu Bridge. Nearby are traditional commercial blocks such as Taikang Road, Gaodi Street, and Yide Road. The square lawn is dotted with big trees, and the greening rate will reach 60%.
The west square will be combined with the subway roof to set up a semi-sunken square and pass through under Haizhu Bridge. The situation where the square is divided by Haizhu Bridge on both sides of the east and west will change. At that time, tourists can freely pass under Haizhu Bridge from the sunken square. The design also retains the ‘heart’-shaped outline of the square. At the same time, a theme sculpture of ‘Zhuhai Danxin’ is set on the side wall of the semi-sunken square. Combined with subway construction, a hemispherical glass dome is used as the upper cover of the subway entrance and exit at the center of the circular semi-sunken square. There is a circular water curtain beside it, implying a new urban landscape of ‘pearl by the river’. Open all year round and open all day. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.Haizhu Square
