Updating the weather…

Nanhai Temple preserves important traces of Guangzhou's maritime Silk Road heritage. Its buildings, inscriptions and sea-worship traditions connect with the city's port and overseas trade; Guangzhou Maritime Museum makes a useful companion visit.

Places like this developed alongside their neighborhoods, transport, industries and everyday public life. Even where appearances have changed, they retain traces of the area's earlier character.

Nanhai Temple is both a place to visit and a way into the surrounding district. Explore it with nearby sights to see how different parts of Guangzhou acquired their own character.
