Locals enjoy staying up late and one of the best things to do in Beihai is just to wander around streets with food and market stalls. There are a couple of public parks that are open late and many locals head there at weekend nights to have a drink, do some dancing and just to meet their friends.
The street is famous for its old colonial buildings, which are rotting away. This is the original site of the first Western trade centres in Beihai. Now there are quite a few bars there and a busy nightlife.

The Beihai Jinhaiwan Mangrove Forest covers an area of about 20 square kilometers and is home to a wide variety of birds and sea creatures. There is also a museum about the Tanka people (or boat people), a subgroup of Han Chinese people who have traditionally lived in their boats.
