Zhongshan Town is a theme park for sightseeing, patriotic education, and film and TV shooting. It covers the revolutionary activities of Sun Yat-sen both at home and abroad. As a top ten popular venue for filming, Zhongshan Town features the distinctive culture of South China. Architectural styles from both the East and West can be found here, including street-side stores and other local scenes reminiscent of old Guangzhou, urban American streetscapes, classic British buildings and China’s largest Japanese-style film sets.

Litoujian Mountain is close to the village, east of the Pearl River estuary. Cuiheng village is surrounded by mountains in three directions and facing water in the other. The Memorial Park of the 1911 Revolution is an ecological park themed around Sun Yat-sen, the revolution of 1911 and the centenary of the 1911 Revolution, remembering him and other early revolutionaries who pledged to fight for democratic rights.
