Referred to as the Haixinsha Smart Pier, it is located in the Haixinsha West Area on the left bank of the Pearl River's East Channel. It serves as a crucial part of the water section for Guangzhou's All-Space Intelligent System Experience Center and is an important supporting facility for the Canton Tower 5A Scenic Area.

It utilizes a shoreline length of 55 meters, with a total berth length of 71 meters. The total investment for the project was 29 million yuan.
During the project's construction period, the Guangzhou Port Authority closely adhered to the development positioning of integrating port, shipping, and cultural tourism. It provided comprehensive coordination and supervision for key aspects such as project design, construction quality, safety production, and smart supporting facilities. By coordinating resources from all parties to efficiently resolve construction difficulties and bottlenecks, it ensured the project's high-quality completion on schedule, laying a solid foundation for the pier's subsequent smart and standardized operation.
The completion of the Haixinsha Smart Pier has filled a gap in Guangzhou's water-based smart sightseeing facilities, adding technological vitality to Pearl River water tourism and marking a new stage in the smart development of Pearl River cruise cultural tourism. This pier will become an important carrier for a distinctive cultural tourism project integrating sightseeing cruises, landmark check-ins, smart interaction, and science education. It injects new momentum into Guangzhou's efforts to build an international consumption center city and create a world-class waterfront sightseeing tourism destination.
The Guangzhou Port Authority stated that it will, based on its industry supervision and service functions for the port and shipping sector, solidly manage the subsequent operational supervision, supporting facility improvement, and industry standard guidance for the project. It will continue to deepen the integrated development of port, shipping, and cultural tourism, promoting the upgrade of Pearl River water passenger transport, sightseeing tourism, and smart shipping business formats. The authority will strictly implement safety production supervision responsibilities, improve the smart pier operation management system, and standardize the navigation, berthing, and operation order of unmanned sightseeing boats. It will further explore the potential of cultural tourism resources along the Pearl River waterfront, optimize the layout of water tourism routes, enrich smart cultural tourism application scenarios, and fully promote the high-quality, smart, and safe development of Guangzhou's Pearl River water tourism.
