The Ancient Quarry Site of Penglou Pond

The Ancient Quarry Site of Penglou Pond is a Guangzhou Municipal Cultural Relics Protection Unit.

The Ancient Quarry Site of Penglou Pond is located in the People’s Park of Dagang Town, Nansha District. It dates back to the Qing Dynasty and is classified as an ancient site.

In December 2008, it was announced as part of the seventh batch of Guangzhou Municipal Cultural Relics Protection Units.

Protected area: A boundary extending 5 meters outward from the outer edge of the cultural relic itself.

Construction control zone: To the north, up to the southern edge line of the existing road outside the north gate of Dagang Park; the rest is bounded by the foothills of the hill.

Dagang Town: Dagang Town is located in the western part of Nansha District, Guangzhou. To the west, it neighbors Zhongshan Huangpu; to the north, it connects with Shunde Daliang in Foshan; to the east, it links to Dongchong in Nansha; and to the south, it faces Hengli in Nansha. The town's terrain is a typical alluvial plain of the Pearl River Delta, featuring the scenic Shiba Luohan Mountain Forest Park within its boundaries. The area has an interwoven river network, with the Hongqili Waterway and Jiaomen Waterway—two of the Pearl River’s eight major outlets—embracing the town from the east and west, capable of accommodating vessels over 3,000 tons. The completed Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, South Expressway, the under-construction Dongxin Expressway, and the planned South Railway all run through the town, positioning Dagang as a key player in the development of Greater Nansha...
