With 3,300 expats who live in the area from over 80 countries and regions and 29 consulates representing nearly half of Guangzhou's total diplomatic presence, this 900-year-old Liede village has become a living showcase of cultural integration.

The neighborhood maintains its heritage through traditions like dragon boat culture, while housing 103 Fortune 500 corporate branches, exemplifying its dual identity as a historic quarter and a modern international hub.

Integral to the neighborhood's evolution, the Haoyi Tianhe Comprehensive Service Center provides tailored support ranging from visa assistance to cultural exchange programs and community services for expats.
