After completion, its scale should be even larger than PortCamargue in France, and it may become the best large-scale yacht base in southern China.

 

Highlight 2: Improving water quality drives the development of Xiangzhou Bay

        Compared to the western district, the yacht project planning in the central urban area is more eye-catching. In recent years, Zhuhai has also proposed relocation plans for the Xiangzhou Fishing Port and Jiuzhou Port container terminals. According to the planning map, the current location of Xiangzhou Fishing Port will develop into a coastal city along Xiangzhou Bay, and some large-scale yacht projects will settle here. The current location of Jiuzhou Port Container Terminal will become Xiangzhou Yacht Bay in the future. These yacht docks, along with the coastal real estate along Lover's Road, will be built into high-end residential areas in Zhuhai, becoming an important symbol of the future of Zhuhai.

        Interpretation:“ The future Xiangzhou Coastal City will become a core area of Zhuhai; Zheng Xiaoping said that after a detailed investigation with experts, he found that in a core area like Xiangzhou Bay, which could have had a development environment comparable to Hong Kong's Central, Wan Chai, and Causeway Bay, there is only one road next to it, Lovers' Road, and the areas where pedestrians can walk are also very narrow; All experts believe that the core strength of Zhuhai should be put back into this core area.

Zheng Xiaoping said that the space in Xiangzhou Bay, especially at the location of the fisherman's statue in the south, is currently too narrow; One or two hundred tourists will feel crowded; Good resources have not been fully utilized. The experts who participated in the inspection believe that this area can be fully transformed to leverage the advantages of fishing women; If done well, Zhuhai can be made a city that both Macau and Hong Kong envy;.

 

Highlight 3: Zhuhai can learn from Miami's experience

        Zheng Xiaoping introduced that the planning team he led first came to Zhuhai in May 2013 and has visited Zhuhai more than 10 times in the past year to conduct research and preliminary construction of the Zhuhai yacht industry plan. In the context of the economic downturn in Europe and America, the country supports the development of the yacht industry, and Zhuhai's yacht development faces two opportunities for domestic and international development. Throughout the process, the planning team was very concerned about how to gather global resources to support the overall development of Zhuhai city.

        Interpretation:“ The environment in Zhuhai is very similar to Miami in the United States, and Zhuhai also has resources and potential to develop in this direction. ” Zheng Xiaoping said that when developing the yacht industry in Zhuhai, it is necessary to rely on various international resources. In fact, the United States has good resources, capital, and consulting institutions, including the American Yacht Manufacturers Association, which also hopes to cooperate with Zhuhai's yacht industry development.

        Miami, located in the southeastern corner of Florida between Biscayne Bay, the Florida Everglades, and the Atlantic Ocean, boasts stunning coastal scenery and a highly developed yacht industry. Due to its excellent air quality, extensive vegetation coverage, clean drinking water, clean streets, and city wide garbage recycling program, Miami was once rated by Forbes as the "; The cleanest city in the United States; It has also been rated as the richest city in the United States and the fifth richest city in the world by UBS.

        What experience can Miami provide for Zhuhai to learn from? Ana G elabert Sanchez, an American planner who previously served as the Director of Urban Planning for Miami, said that Miami has formulated the "; Miami 21” The planning of Miami has replaced zoning norms with form planning, and has comprehensively planned land use and urban layout, making Miami a sustainable and walkable city. “ A city cannot be built on one project, it has many aspects, such as economy, education, transportation, and so on. ”
