This balmy promenade starts at Gongbei (拱北, Gŏngbĕi), at the border with Macau, and sweeps north for 28km along the coast, passing some of Zhuhai's most coveted real estate. The section near Tangjia Public Garden is the most beautiful. There are kite and bicycle rentals along the way, and snack booths at night.
