PHBS international students recently visited Zhongshan, exploring how this historic city is carving out its role within the Greater Bay Area.

The trip began at the Museum of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, offering a glimpse into Zhongshan’s cultural roots. Students then visited a mix of industrial parks and innovation hubs, including Perfect (China) South China Base and Zhongshan Scientist Town, where they observed activity across manufacturing, healthcare, and local entrepreneurship initiatives.

Reflecting on the visit, Daniel (Economics, 2025 Intake) shared:
“This made me realize how much more there is to the Pearl River Delta beyond Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong.”
