Shekou Sea World

Introduction

In 1984 Shekou was booming and there was a serious shortage of accommodation. To deal with this, the cruise ship “Ming Hua” (Launched April 5, 1962 by the French president Charles de Gaulle, purchased by The People’s Republic of China in 1973 and renamed MINGHUA) was moored alongside the dock and used as a floating hotel. Only nine years before it had been the focus of a political typhoon during the movement which saw Deng Xiaoping sent for the second time into political limbo. No wonder that he was happy to write an inscription in his own handwriting, “Sea World”, Shekou a facsimile of which now presides in neon over the ship. The land has now been reclaimed for half a mile beyond the ship which now sits in a small pool. But the square in front of the ship is very attractive and a meeting place for all walks of Shekou life. Go there in the evening for food and drinks al fresco.
