Zhuhai [a] is a prefecture-level city located on the west bank of the Pearl River estuary on the central coast of southern Guangdong province,People's Republic of China,on the southeastern edge of the Pearl River Delta. Its name literally means "pearl sea",which originates from the city's location at the mouth of the Pearl River meeting the South China Sea. Zhuhai borders Jiangmen to the west,Zhongshan to the north and Macau to the southeast,and shares maritime boundaries with Shenzhen and Hong Kong to the northeast across the estuary.
Zhuhai was one of the original four Special Economic Zones established in 1980,as well as one of China's premier tourist destinations,being called the Chinese Riviera. While the city is located in the traditionally Cantonese-speaking province of Guangdong,a significant portion of the population is now made up of Mandarin-speaking economic migrants originally from inland provinces.
The core of Zhuhai,Xiangzhou District along with Macao,in the northeastern portion of the administrative division,are part of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area,the biggest built-up area in the world with more than 65,565,622 inhabitants as of the 2020 census,encompassing Shenzhen,Dongguan,Foshan,Zhongshan,Macau,the main part of Guangzhou,and small parts of Jiangmen and Huizhou cities but with Hong Kong not quite conurbated yet.
According to a report released in 2014 by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences,Zhuhai is the most liveable city in China. [4] Zhuhai is classified as a Medium-Port Metropolis. [5]
Zhuhai has had a long history in the development of the exhibition industry in China. Zhuhai was the first permanent motor racing facility in China and has become a centre for the local racing scene,as well as a semi-regular fixture on the international racing circuit,including the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone.
The population of Zhuhai has experienced steady growth from 2014 to 2023. In 2014,the city's population was approximately 1.51 million,which increased to about 2.49 million by the end of 2023.
This bridge was first proposed by Gordon Wu and contemplated by stakeholders,municipal governments in the Pearl River Delta,the provincial government of Guangdong,and the central government of the People's Republic of China (PRC). Before the government handover of Hong Kong,the British government also considered plans for a bridge. After 1997 the commercial interests of Hong Kong prompted the local government to consider the plans as well. [7]
On 24 October 2018 the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge (HZMB) was opened.
Zhuhai borders the Macau Special Administrative Region (north and west), [8] : 113 and is 140 kilometres (87 miles) southwest of Guangzhou. Its territory has 690 kilometres (429 miles) of coastline and 217 islands,of which 147 are over 500 square metres in area. [9]
The islands within the prefecture-level city of Zhuhai include a number of near-shore islands,often connected to the mainland by bridges or causeways (such as Hengqin,Qi'ao,or Yeli Islands),as well as some islands in the open South China Sea (the Wanshan Archipelago). Some of the latter are actually geographically closer to Hong Kong than to the Zhuhai mainland. The jurisdiction of Nei Lingding Island,located in the Pearl River estuary was transferred from Zhuhai to Shenzhen in 2009. [10]
Despite being located within the tropics,Zhuhai has a humid subtropical climate affected by the East Asian Monsoon (Koppen classification Cwa) and moderated by the South China Sea,with long,hot and humid summers with frequent thunderstorms,and short,mild and dry winters. Average highs in January and July are 18 and 32 °C (64 and 90 °F) respectively. Snowfalls are unknown and a frost has never been recorded in the city centre. Conversely,extreme heat waves do not occur as they do further inland. Being named one of the most liveable cities in China,real estate is robust here. Residents from the mainland,especially those from the North,will buy homes and spend their winters in Zhuhai.

In 1980 the government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) announced that the city of Zhuhai would be one of four special economic zones. Those doing business in the SEZ are eligible for a range of incentives provided by the PRC. [13] Zhuhai became a city in 1979,a year before it was designated as one of the first Special Economic Zones of China (SEZ). Similarly to neighbouring Shenzhen,which became the first Special Economic Zone of China in 1978,the implementation of Zhuhai as an SEZ was largely due to its strategic position adjacent to Macau,a capitalist trading center similar to Shenzhen's position with Hong Kong.
The establishment of Zhuhai as an SEZ allowed the Chinese Central Government and economy to have easier access to the Macau and consequently,global market. As a result,Zhuhai is now a major city in the Pearl River Delta region according to the new general urban plan approved by the State Council. The implementation of Special Economy Zone intended for the city to become a key port city,science and education city,scenic and tourism city,and as a regional hub for transportation.
The outstanding geographic location,a wide range of supporting infrastructure and a deep-water port serve as a major attraction for foreign capital. Utilized foreign investment reached US$10.344 billion in 2008. Among the top 500 enterprises worldwide,19 of them have investment projects in Zhuhai such as ExxonMobil,BP,Siemens,Carrefour and Matsushita.
Industrial development in Zhuhai focuses on five new high-tech and heavy industries including electronics,computer software,biotechnology and pharmacy,machinery and equipment as well as petrochemical industries. Aiming to strengthen the existing industrial base as well as to provide a better environment for the development of new high-tech industries,the local government has taken the initiative in developing five economic zones:
As one of the four earliest Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in China,Zhuhai SEZ was set up in the year 1980 and granted with a local legislative right. Zhuhai hi-tech zone is located in the north of Zhuhai,which is very close to downtown. Furthermore,technological resources are centralised in our zone;there is also a huge development in hi-tech industries led by the software and IC industries. The hi-tech zone is the showcase for Zhuhai's scientific development. [14] Meizu is one high tech product headquartered in Zhuhai.
Zhuhai Free Trade Zone (Zhuhai FTZ) was founded in 1996 with the State Council's approval,occupying 3 km2 (1.2 sq mi). A Zhuhai FTZ Administrative Committee was set up in June 1997. By the end of 2006 there had been over 200 companies registered in the Free Trade Zone,including more than 150 foreign-funded enterprises,and the total investment amount was one billion US dollars. Industries encouraged in the zone include electronics assembly and manufacturing,telecommunications equipment,building/construction materials,instruments and industrial equipment production,medical equipment and supplies,raw material processing,research and development,shipping/warehousing/logistics,and heavy industry. [15] [16]
The Wanshan archipelago is located in one of the major fishing areas of China and is core to the Wanshan ocean development testing zone. However, Perna viridis ,a species of green mussel,was found to be contaminated by HCHs,DDTs,and PCBs. [17] [18]
In April 2023 the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) has published for the Hengqin economic development zone a list of industries that are illegible for investment policies,including income tax benefits for workers. The stated aim of the investment policy is to integrate Macao with key industries in the Pearl River Delta. [19]
Zhuhai manufactured and supplied 70 per cent of the world's ribbons,60 per cent of the world's aftermarket inkjet cartridges and 20 per cent of the world's third-party laser toner cartridges. Their combined sales were worth more than 1.3 billion US dollars or 10 per cent of all the sales in the world. Zhuhai owns a comprehensive supply chain and almost any of the raw materials needed by the printer consumables industry can be provided locally.
The prefecture-level city of Zhuhai administers three county-level divisions and four special economic districts,all of which are districts.

Zhuhai also is served by airports outside:
Zhuhai residents may also use Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport ( IATA : SZX, ICAO : ZGSZ) and travel there by bus or ferry. [27]
Zhuhai Railway Station is located at the western end of Gongbei Port of Entry and Portas do Cerco at the border of Zhuhai and Macau. There are frequent high speed trains to Guangzhou, Guilin, Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and other main cities in China. The intercity railway between Zhuhai Gongbei and Zhuhai Jinwan International Airport is under construction. It is expected to be opened to Hengqin in November 2019, and the whole project will be completed in 2024. It will take only 30 minutes to commute from urban district to the airport using the completed line.
Zhuhai also has a tram network, with the first phase of Line 1 completed in 2014. In 2017, Line 1 began service to the public. The trams ceased running in January 2021 due to frequent power issues and low patronage.
The Zhuhai Metro (珠海地铁) is currently in the planning stage. Line 1 will start from Jiuzhou Port and end at the Jinwan Station, with a total length of 36.8 km; Line 2 will start from Jinding Industrial Area and end at Gongbei Port, with a total length of 30.5 km. Construction was expected to start in 2019, with an estimated time of completion in 2024.[ citation needed ]
Zhuhai is known for its good climate and good air quality. Endowed with a long coastline, it is the only city on the western Pearl River Delta with natural deep-water ports.[ citation needed ]
Zhuhai has two international seaports: Jiuzhou (九洲港) and Gaolan (高栏港). Gaolan Port is one of the leading ports in Guangdong province, while Jiuzhou Port focuses on heavy passenger sea transport.[ citation needed ]
Chu Kong Passenger Transport operates a ferry service between Zhuhai's Jiuzhou Port, Hong Kong and Shekou Passenger Terminal, in the Nanshan District of Shenzhen. A service between Jiuzhou Port and Hong Kong International Airport for air passengers using the airport began on 10 July 2007. [28]
Zhuhai is currently served by two major Chinese national expressways: G94 Pearl River Delta Ring Expressway
G0425 Guangzhou–Macau Expressway
Zhuhai and the surrounding landscapes were developed into an industrial output zone in the 1980s. Prior to that, Zhuhai generated economic development on the basis of tourism, benefiting from the comfortable subtropical climate. Zhuhai enjoys the reputation of a coastal garden city. When environmental pollution from the manufacturing industries threatened the quality of life, Zhuhai introduced strict environmental laws and hired engineers from Singapore to assist the city with urban planning. [29]
Realizing the benefits brought by tourism, the local government is expanding tourist destinations and is developing new spots such as Hengqin (横琴岛), Dong'ao (东澳), Hebao (荷包), Qi'ao (淇澳岛) and Yeli (野狸).
Zhuhai hosts the China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition biannually in November. It is the largest Air Show in China and a huge tourist attraction.
The New Yuan Ming Palace (simplified Chinese :圆明新园; traditional Chinese :圓明新園) is a park of 1.39 square kilometres (0.54 square miles), including an 80,000 m2 (861,113 sq ft) lake. It features a partial reconstruction of the Old Summer Palace in Beijing which was destroyed during the Second Opium War and was never rebuilt on its original site. [30]
The coast of Xianglu Bay is considered the "symbol" of Zhuhai, offering a scenic view of Pearl River Delta with silt-rich water, rocks, and a beach. The famous landmark of the city, Zhuhai Fisher Girl , stands elegantly on a boulder in Xianglu Bay; the statue is draped by a fishnet and holds a pearl high in the air with both hands up to the sky, symbolising a vigorous and lively Zhuhai welcoming visitors from all over the world. It was erected in 1982 by Pan He, a professor from the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, and is 8.7 metres (29 ft) tall and composed of 70 pieces of granite. Visitors can view the statue up close from a boardwalk on the shore. [31] [32] The statue was based on a local legend, in which the daughter of the celestial Dragon King visited the Pearl River delta, became a fisherwoman, and married a mortal. [33]
A number of other colleges and universities are also located in or near Zhuhai. Beijing Normal University Zhuhai Campus was created as a new model university. Besides its high quality of education, it is more internationally oriented than many universities in China. Many students here prepare to go abroad to finish their junior and senior years.
Despite the shortage of higher education, Zhuhai government has been paying a lot of attention to primary and secondary education. From 2007, high school students in Zhuhai needn't pay school fees any more. [34]
As a result, there are many famous high schools in Zhuhai. Zhuhai No.1 High School (ZH1Z) is one of the most competitive high schools in Guangdong Province, and also a member of the Guangdong "Six Schools Union".
Dulwich International High School Zhuhai, QSI International School of Zhuhai, and Zhuhai International School serve expatriates and/or use foreign educational systems.
Zhuhai Japanese Saturday School (珠海日本人補習校) is a supplementary school for overseas Japanese in Zhuhai. [35] It holds classes at QSI School. [36]
Zhuhai is the first city in China to have constructed a motor racing circuit. The Zhuhai International Circuit was built in 1996 and is located at Jinding, near the border to Zhongshan. ZIC has held the BPR Global GT Endurance Series in 1996, the FIA GT Championship in 1997, 1999, 2004 and 2005. It hosted the championship's 2007 opening round on 24 and 25 March. ZIC had planned to host a round of the Champ Car World Series on 20 May 2007, but agreement was not reached. ZIC held an A1GP race in 2007 for the first time in series' history. ZIC became the first venue in China to host the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup on 7 November 2010 when the 2010 1000 km of Zhuhai was staged.
Zhuhai has also a new tennis center which hosts WTA Elite Trophy, the last tournament of the year for players that are in the top 20 but did not qualify to WTA Finals.
