Shantou is undoubtedly one of the favorite destinations for filmmakers! In Shantou, mountains, the sea, and alleys serve as an ever-lasting natural film set. Step into the Little Park, where the arcade buildings whisper tales of past prosperity amidst the interplay of light and shadow—under the triple-eaved Memorial Kiosk for Sun Yat-sen, the warmth of A Love Letter to Grandma still lingers. Around the corner, inside the Zheng Zhengqiu and Cai Chusheng Film Museum, an old projector turns the reels, slowly recounting the legendary story of the "Fathers of Chinese Cinema." Move to Xidi Park, a memorial site for overseas Chinese letters that bears witness to the vicissitudes of this century-old commercial port, where the espionage intrigues of Faces in the Crowd overlap with history. The mountain and sea scenes on Nan'ao Island have attracted numerous film and television works, such as Only Fools Rush In and Odds Beater, capturing the fishing village's poetic charm of clear waves and golden sands on sunny days. The footsteps of Sunshine Road are hidden within the 800-year-old Donghua Community, while the youthful story of Young Babylon runs wild within Dahao Ancient City. Every street, every scene, and every taste in Shantou carries profound history, waiting for you to explore and savor.
