Shamian Island: The island covers an area of 0.3 km².The territory was divided into two concessions given to France and the United Kingdom by the Qing government in the 19th century. The island is a gazetted historical area that serves as a tranquil reminder of the colonial European period, with quiet pedestrian avenues flanked by trees and lined by historical buildings in various states of upkeep.

Lychee Bay: Liwan district carries out overall environmental improvement works in 2009 and 2010 for Asian Games. After the sewage treatment of the Litchi Bay, the stream, and the neighboring buildings and streets restore their former historic features.
