Huacheng Square

Arrive at Zhujiang New Town Station

Take Metro Line 3 or 5 to Zhujiang New Town Station (珠江新城站), Exit A — this opens directly into the southern end of Huacheng Square. Alternatively, take the driverless APM line to Grand Theatre Station (大剧院站) or Huacheng Square Station.

Walk the Southern Lawns and Water Features

The southern section of the square features open lawns and meandering streams — a relaxing green space in the heart of the CBD. During the day this area is great for photos with the Canton Tower backdrop. The 花城汇 underground mall is here for food options.

Find the Classic Reflection Shot

Navigate to Exit B of 妇儿中心地铁站 — a short walk from the main square. This spot captures the Canton Tower and IFC Tower reflections in standing water on clear nights. This is the signature Huacheng Square photo.

Watch the Music Fountain Light Show

Head to the music fountain area (south side near Canton Tower view). The water columns dance to music with colored lights — timing depends on the day's schedule. Shows typically run multiple times evening. Arrive 10 minutes early to secure a viewing spot.

Stroll to Haixinsha Park

Walk south along the riverbank from the square toward Haixinsha Park — about 15 minutes. The park offers an unobstructed view of Canton Tower across the water, perfect for night photography. Alternatively, cross the Haixin Bridge for a different tower-river composition.
