When you mention Haixinsha Park, you might think of the Canton Tower, the Asian Games, and the Zhujiang New Town. It's hard to connect this core point of Guangzhou's CBD with a wharf offering convenient and affordable ferries. As you stroll along thepark's riverside, observant visitors will notice a small wharf in the shadow of the Canton Tower. From here, you can head west to Sun Yat-sen University or book a trip on the water bus to the east, reaching Huangpu Military Academy.
It might seem incredible, but it's actually quite normal. The Haixinsha Wharf is like a candied hawthorn stick bought by a well-to-do gentleman on the street. Instead of clashing, it adds a touch of elegance to this park and the city. This is the urbantemperament of Guangzhou – both fashionable and down-to-earth, grand yet full of local flavor.

岭南说｜水上City walk③ |如何用最便宜的方式，玩转广州CBD？

提起海心沙公园，你大概会想到小蛮腰，想到亚运会，想到珠江新城……我们很难将这个广州CBD的核心点之一，与一座便民又便宜的码头联系起来。漫步在公园江边，细心的游客会发现，在小蛮腰的倒影里隐藏着一座小小的码头。从这里，既可西向前往中山大学，也可预定如约水巴，东向抵达黄埔军校。

 这看似不可思议，实则非常自然。海心沙码头，仿佛一个贵公子在街头买的糖葫芦，不仅没有丝毫违和，反而为这片公园、这座城市平添了几分大气。这正是广州的城市气质——既能高大上又能接地气，既有大排面又有人情味。
