Nansha, located at the southernmost tip of Guangzhou, borders Dongguan, Zhongshan, and Shenzhen, and is adjacent to Hong Kong and Macau. It serves as a gateway city from southern China to the world. Relying on its rich marine and water – network resources, Nansha boasts numerous islands in the Pearl River Estuary and a dense network of waterways, creating a unique water – town landscape of the Pearl River.
In recent years, Nansha has become a key area for tourism development in Guangzhou. It is a paradise for those seeking fun around the city. Adjacent to the Lingdingyang, its unique salt – fresh water environment gives birth to delicious aquatic products. As the Pearl River flows southward to the sea, sand accumulates to form beaches. The resources in Nansha are truly abundant. The Nansha Port Cruise Terminal connects international cruise routes. The Nansha Tianhou Palace is a great place for people to pray, make wishes, and have vegetarian food, which is especially suitable for bringing parents. The newly – popular Puzhou Garden has recently become a hot spot for internet celebrities to take photos. And there are also the Nansha Wetland Park and the Seafood and Fruit Street at Shijiuchong and Shisichong.
Staying at the Sheraton Guangzhou Nansha Hotel, you can have a well – arranged short – term trip or a two – day – one – night weekend getaway. When thinking about the delicious food and fun activities in Nansha, you’ll surely be eager to go.
This year, due to the special situation, cross – provincial and cross – national trips are not very suitable. So, exploring the most interesting places around Guangzhou has become an important task during the summer vacation. Having a well – rounded trip with good accommodation and food is the right way to spend the summer. Let’s seize the last days of summer! For foodies, summer is an excellent season because the seafood in Nansha is calling you. Nansha is rich in sweet potatoes, guavas, papayas, carambolas, dragon bananas, Shenwan pineapples, and Xinken lotus roots. Thanks to its excellent ecological environment, the quality of these products is top – notch. Eating seafood in Nansha has also gained a good reputation. “Eating seasonally” is a label for authentic Guangzhou people. Nansha is truly a hidden treasure.
I’ve always had a great impression of Nansha because I used to come here often many years ago when I was young.

The Sheraton Guangzhou Nansha Hotel is located in the core area of resource – rich Nansha. One of the most impressive things during this trip was the desserts and vegetables made from Nansha’s special guavas, as well as the extremely fresh seafood. The hotel selects fresh seasonal ingredients. You don’t have to go to Shijiuchong; you can start a food – hunting vacation right in the hotel.
The Sheraton Executive Lounge is spacious, bright, and comfortable. It is very suitable for business work or having afternoon tea. The hotel’s catering is excellent. Whether it’s afternoon tea, lunch, or dinner, it can meet all your needs. When traveling with children, parents hope that their kids can eat happily and be satisfied. The hotel also provides unique afternoon tea based on Nansha’s characteristics, which makes children very happy.
The hotel’s fitness center is equipped with good hardware facilities, including the world – famous “Technogym” fitness equipment. The outdoor heated infinity pool with a view of Nansha’s scenery makes you eager to take a dip. In this hot season, swimming is the best way to escape the heat.
The hotel has a total of 291 rooms, including 30 luxury and premium suites. All rooms are equipped with Sheraton’s signature beds, 55 – inch flat – screen TVs, high – speed internet access, and independent bathtubs and shower rooms. When the welcome desserts for children are sent to the room, kids will be overjoyed.
The 270 – degree glass exterior of the room allows you to overlook part of Nansha’s scenery. My son especially likes to watch the subway from the window. The tent in the room, which was his favorite when he was a child, brings back his childhood memories. He says these things can always bring him fun. The bathroom is also equipped with children’s toilets, which is very considerate. At night, when you turn on his special night – light, it’s like a sky full of stars, wishing him a good dream.
In the morning, you’ll be amazed by the diverse buffet at the Feast Restaurant. My son can now independently choose the food he likes. I love the Japanese – Korean restaurant “Ya”, while my son prefers the Chinese restaurant Caiyuexuan. The two restaurants in the Sheraton Guangzhou Nansha Hotel can satisfy our different food preferences. The Japanese all – you – can – eat and the hidden menu in the Japanese – Korean restaurant can make you experience the taste of Japan without leaving the country. The Chinese cuisine in the restaurant is also amazing. With the abundant local resources, chefs can use their creativity. The fresh ingredients and the superior geographical environment make Nansha’s food unforgettable. Each dish is delicate and has a unique flavor.
It’s really great to choose Nansha for a two – day – one – night trip. Even if you don’t drive, you don’t have to worry because Nansha has convenient transportation and well – developed geographical conditions. There are many surrounding tourist facilities, making it very suitable for family vacations. So, have you learned how to enjoy Nansha yet? And it only takes about 1 hour to get to Nansha from Guangzhou, which is also a great choice for a self – driving tour during the Spring Festival within the province.
