The Huawei European Town in Dongguan is really interesting. I rented a bicycle and got lost. It is really big and beautiful. I rode and stopped to take pictures along the way. It felt like my own city. There is a unified cafeteria inside, so the place is also very clean. There is also a 3D roller coaster suitable for children. The children are also very happy here. The big place is really good for the body and mind to run and jump freely👍👍👍
