You can see the panoramic view of the tile roof. There are bougainvilleas of various colors. It's so shocking. 🔹There is also a large cluster of white flowers in front of the Ezidao Restaurant, and there are relatively few people here. 🔹Don't miss the alleys inside, there are surprises when you go in and find the camera positions~ - ⚠️Travel suggestions: ▪️It is best to have one day to visit the ancient town and enjoy the flowers.

Step into timeless charm at Gankeng Hakka Town, where tradition meets picture-perfect scenery! 🏮🌳 Soak up those old town vibes as you wander ancient courtyards, tree-lined paths, and heritage lanes—all tucked away from Shenzhen’s city rush. Embark on your stroll starting at the stone gateways, letting winding paths lead you past classic tiled Hakka houses and serene lotus ponds. Don’t miss that Insta-worthy tree hung with red blessing ribbons—a splash of color and culture in the midst of tranquil greenery (cloudy days add a moody magic! 🌧️). Snap close-ups of intricate Chinese architecture and lotus blooms for your photo archive. Take time to pause by the riverside pavilions, where reflections add depth to every shot. Must-do: Sample fresh Hakka snacks at local stalls and step into historic buildings for a glimpse of rural craft and life. If it’s rainy, be sure to carry a light raincoat or umbrella—the open courtyards get slick, but watching mist linger over rooflines feels straight out of an old movie. Early visits (before 10 AM) guarantee fewer crowds and quieter photo opportunities, especially in hidden corners. Practical tip: Gankeng Hakka Town is open all day, year-round—perfect for spontaneous detours! Some courtyards may be slippery when wet; comfy, sturdy shoes are a must. Respect local customs, especially when photographing blessing ribbons or residences. #Shenzhen #GankengHakkaTown #OldTownVibes #ChineseArchitecture #TravelChina #happyhalloween
