Maoming Picnic and Leisure Spot - Open-pit Mine Ecological Park

❤Recommended Reason: Open-pit Mine Ecological Park - The city's former 'scar' transformed into an ecological park, from an abandoned mine pit to a magnificent transformation. What is it like now? Come, let me show you. Guangdong Maoming is a city built and developed due to the petroleum industry. In the northwest corner of the city, there was an open-pit mining site, where the ecological environment continuously deteriorated due to unregulated mining. In 2013, the local government shut down the mine for ecological restoration, gradually transforming it into an open ecological park. 🌟Highlights: Now, the Open-pit Mine Ecological Park is the largest natural ecological park in the area, consisting of a mine pit lake with a water surface of about 6 square kilometers and a water storage capacity of 160 million cubic meters, along with nearly ten thousand acres of ecological forest land. The park features a scenic loop around the lake, lush green grass, and abundant vegetation. The international marathon track is a beautiful rainbow. 🌟Highlights: The vast park includes pavilions, homestays, leisure cafes, museums, children's playgrounds, ecological farms, wetland corridors, bellflower seas, ten-mile azaleas, and other leisure spots. A causeway in the middle of the Good Heart Lake leads directly to the other side, offering tranquil and beautiful scenery on both sides of the lake. 👍Highly Recommended: Gather with three or five friends or family for a picnic, lake stroll, shared bike ride, or weekend getaway. It's definitely a great choice. 🚉Transportation Guide: Park Address: Mining Road, Maonan District, Maoming City Suitable for self-driving, ample parking spaces around the park, convenient and free Opening Hours: 08:00-22:00 Free admission Open-pit Mine Museum: Free admission Visiting Hours: Tuesday to Sunday (closed on Mondays) 9:00-12:00; 14:00-17:00; 📝Note Tips: Note, the actual admission time ends at 16:30, and visitors are asked to leave by then.
