Pingsha Island, resembling a slender ‘green leaf’ floating in the heart of the Xijiang River, is one of the few purely agricultural islands in Foshan that retains its pristine natural atmosphere.
The island boasts fresh air and beautiful scenery, akin to an idyllic paradise.

Most of the villagers on Pingsha Island maintain the traditional agricultural lifestyle of working with the sunrise and resting with the sunset.

Predominantly inhabited by the elderly, with many octogenarians, Pingsha Island is rightfully known as a longevity village.

Circumnavigating the island, one can encounter vast banana groves, vegetable gardens, and endless stretches of grassland.
