Line 4 of Guangzhou hides a "magical manor" that feels like stepping into a post-apocalyptic sci-fi film. 💚 Few people, beautiful scenery! Mechanical beasts, floating whales, Swan Lake… full of healing power! As a blogger deeply familiar with outdoor spots around Guangzhou, I have almost explored all nearby areas, looking for a place that is both visually stunning and where I can breathe deeply. Until I reached the end of Line 4 and discovered "Sihai Equestrian Manor"—this free secret base made me feel like I had stepped into an unreal movie. 📍 Basic information first: ▪ Location: Sihai Equestrian Manor ▪ Transportation: Line 4 [Xinzhao Station] Exit A1, about a 10-minute taxi ride (around 15-20 RMB) ▪ Admission: Free! Free! Free! (Important things said three times) ▪ Recommended time: After 3 PM, when the light and shadows start telling stories 🌲 Three immersive scenes, each like entering another dimension [Transformers taken over by nature] 🤖 When mechanical beasts are taken over by nature… Walking along the forest path, you’ll hold your breath the moment you encounter it—all made from welded scrap car parts, with metal textures of gears and tires still clearly visible, but covered in moss and vines. It looks like a cyber warrior who has been sleeping in this forest for many years, with the cold mechanical feel softened by the greenery. Standing there, I felt like I had accidentally walked onto the set of a "post-apocalyptic fairy tale." [Whale pavilion floating in the rainforest] 🐋 A floating whale dream in the rainforest… Deep in the dense forest is a glass house wrapped in palm leaves. The moment you push open the door, the air feels different. A whale specimen hangs overhead, its wrinkled skin texture still carrying the dullness of the deep sea; outside the glass, the greenery flickers with light spots, weaving the rainforest’s softness with the deep sea’s gloom. Standing there, you are gently wrapped in a "tender vastness." [Silent moments by Swan Lake] 🦢 By Swan Lake, time feels very light… Walking through the woods, you suddenly come upon an open lake. Geese stroll by the shore, and time feels very light here. Sitting on the grass, this is the true meaning of "outdoor oxygen" in my heart. 💡 Photo route plan for "photography lovers": ▪ Transformers (while the light is good) → Whale pavilion (wait for the lights) → Swan Lake → Large grassy area by the lake; 4:00-5:30 PM is the golden window for great shots If you are tired of crowded popular spots and want to find a place in Guangzhou where you can truly breathe— Come here and feel the poetic coexistence of machinery and life. As for me, I will continue to explore more "hidden, healing, and worthwhile" outdoor spots in Guangzhou and Foshan.
