Two-Day Tour Around Hong Kong and Shenzhen ● Always Moved by Chinese Aesthetics

The beauty of Chinese architecture is not just the scenic views at every step in gardens, the winding paths leading to secluded spots, not just the grandeur and symmetry of the Forbidden City, not just the towering majesty of pagodas with their seven-layered eaves and glazed tiles, nor just the grey bricks, white tiles, and brick-carved doorways of traditional residences. The Hakka walled villages are simple yet full of life, with symmetrical houses, blank walls, staggered eaves, deep alleys, surrounded by green mountains and flowing water, where humans and nature coexist harmoniously. This is Longnan, just an hour and a half by high-speed train from Shenzhen. Due to its remote location, this trip to Longnan only included a visit to Guanxiwei, but it was already very worthwhile. If you have a choice, spring and autumn would be better times to visit. The scenic area is not large, and if the weather is not too hot, you can stroll for a long time. Choose a weekend that is not too hot to visit the walled villages listed in the World Cultural Heritage.
