Liwan DistrictAverage Rent

Liwan is currently undergoing a radical bifurcation as the Baietan Greater Bay Area Art Center anchors a new era of luxury riverfront living. While the historical Xiguan core suffers from chronic undersupply of modern stock, aggressive urban renewal in Huadiwan is finally introducing high-density, high-quality residential options. We are seeing a shift where premium new builds are decoupling from the stagnant pricing of older walk-ups, pushing the district average to a resilient ¥46,000/m². Verdict: Liwan is a 'Strong Buy' for cultural preservationists and long-term investors betting on the westward expansion of Guangzhou’s central core.
