In Jiangmen, you can see many historic luxurious villas and unique gardens built by overseas Chinese entrepreneurs, reflecting Jiangmen's unique history and culture.

The city was traditionally a treaty port on the Pearl River Delta. It is also home to cultural treasures such as the UNESCO-listed heritage site known as Kaiping Diaolou and Villages.

Kaiping Diaolou and Villages was listed in the world cultural catalog in 2007. Nearly 2,000 diaolou towers stand amid the fields, in perfect harmony with the splendid countryside.

An incredible fusion of Chinese and Western cultures, UNESCO experts describe them as "a complex and flamboyant fusion of Chinese and Western structural and decorative forms."

Jiangmen is known as the hometown of countless delicacies. Chang fen, or rice noodle rolls, which were often spotted being eaten by characters in the drama, is also a must-try dish for visitors to Jiangmen.
