Established in 2013, the Cuiheng New Area is located in the eastern waterfront area of Zhongshan and spans a total planned area of 230 sq km, composing the Ma'an island and the Nanlang Area.

The Cuiheng New Area serves as an important nodal area connecting the west bank of the Pearl River and the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link. It is home to major infrastructures such as the Guangzhou-Macao Expressway, and is less than 100 km away from five international airports and four international ports, including the Zhongshan Hong Kong-Macao Ferry Terminal, which provides direct routes to major cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, such as Hong Kong, Macao, and Shenzhen.
