Why Visit Tianyahaijiao?
More than just China’s symbolic “southern edge,” Tianyahaijiao is a place of profound emotional and cultural resonance. Its name comes from classical Chinese poetry, evoking a sense of beautiful remoteness and eternal love. While it may not be the geographical southernmost point of China (that title belongs to Jinmu Cape), it has long been regarded as the “heart’s southernmost shore”—a landscape that captures both the eye and the imagination.
What to See & Experience

Standing like silent guardians along the shore, these granite giants are engraved with classic Chinese characters that speak of history, devotion, and wonder. Each tells a part of Tianyahaijiao’s story—don’t miss the chance to see them up close and feel their enduring presence.
• Serene Beach & Panoramic Sea Views
Walk along the soft sandy shoreline, take in views of distant islets scattered across the horizon, and let the gentle sea breeze calm your spirit. On clear days, the blend of sky, sea, and stone creates breathtaking vistas perfect for photography and quiet contemplation.
