Recently, the second floor of Guangzhou Youth Palace, located on Beijing Road, turned into a glittering "window theater". The original closed glass facing the street has been transformed into an open space facing Beijing Road, just like an air show. Along with Cantonese songs such as "red sun" and "wide sea and sky", which are familiar to the public, the window theater attracted many tourists to stop and watch. This is a big stage for Dawan District Youth Week in Guangzhou, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao in 2022. Every Saturday night, Dawan District youth will bring singing and dancing, Cantonese opera, orchestral music and other public welfare performances here. This is a vivid epitome of the cultural Bay area jointly built by Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. The outline of the development plan of Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Great Bay Area (hereinafter referred to as "the outline of the plan") clearly proposes to jointly build a cultural Bay area and a leisure Bay area, providing new opportunities for the development of culture and tourism in the three places. With the acceleration of the construction of Dawan District, the exchange and cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao in the field of culture and tourism continue to improve quality and efficiency.
