About this audio guide
This guide stands you on the shore of Xianglu Bay in Zhuhai, facing the granite Fisher Girl on her boulder in the water. It follows sculptor Pan He and the competition for a city landmark at the end of the nineteen seventies, when most designs looked nothing like her. You'll also hear where the bay's incense-burner name may come from, and the Dragon King legend she carries. Best heard on the promenade with her in full view.
