The Bougainvillea waterfall in Shenzhen Xianhu Botanical Garden is located in the parking area, where a five-story high flower wall pours down like nature's palette, blooming with tender romance. Unlike the common bright pink, the Bougainvilleas here are predominantly light pink, resembling a cherry blossom tunnel in spring, yet with an added touch of tropical passion and resilience. From October to April of the following year is the peak blooming season for Bougainvilleas, when they bloom vengefully, turning the parking lot into the most incredible dreamy garden. 🏞️ Must-visit attractions: - Best time to take photos: The soft light before sunset allows you to capture the gentlest pink of the Bougainvilleas. Remember to plan your trip in advance to avoid missing the best light and shadow. - Try different angles and compositions, such as shooting from below the flower waterfall or using reflections to add depth to your photos. - Why not slow down and wander through the flowers, feeling the surprise and tranquility of an unexpected encounter. 🚗 Detailed address: Shenzhen Xianhu Botanical Garden parking lot, accessible from Exit C3 of Line 8, no entrance ticket required for close-up viewing. 🛣️ Transportation tips: - Subway: Take the subway to Line 8, get off at Exit C3, and walk to reach the destination. - Bus: Several bus routes go directly to the vicinity of Xianhu Botanical Garden. After getting off, follow the signs and walk for a few minutes to arrive. 🍲 Food recommendations: - On the way to Xianhu Botanical Garden, try the IMA Cap Western restaurant at the exit of Longhua subway station to add a refined taste to your journey. - On the way back, don't miss the seafood stalls in Shenzhen. Fresh seafood paired with chilled beer is the perfect end to a day's journey. 🏞️ Nearby attractions recommendations: - Wutong Mountain Scenic Area: Not far from the Bougainvillea waterfall is Shenzhen's highest peak, Wutong Mountain. Climb to the top for a different view of the city. - East Overseas Chinese Town: Experience the perfect combination of eco-tourism and cultural entertainment. Whether it's the tranquility of Tea Stream Valley or the excitement of Knight Valley, both are exceptional choices for a visit.

#shenzhentrip As I'll always be wary of offbeat hiking trail 🏞️in foreign land just because of the unknowns of the terrain, while this time I decided to embark on one such unknown journey 🚶🏾‍♂️ Well I'd say it really did paid off, with my girl around, we got to see the whole bay area 🗾⚓ from a really nice viewing spot, at the top of the Wutong expedition. If you had followed my previous post about this mount, then you may know that this trail is quite a rocky 🪨 terrain but after you've reached the top there'll be neatly laid out steps; where I saw people go and wait until sunset 🌇 to see the city start glittering ✨ as the night 🌃 sets in. But since we were quite tired to do that, we decided to hike down the hill; which was quite rewarding too, as we got to see some jungle creatures along the way !! #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #ukcreator

#shenzhentrip The best thing about visiting natural/famous places in China is that, all the places are well facilitated with basic needs 💧🥟🚻⛑️ so that even people who aren't in great fitness (like me😋) also can enjoy these experiences. On such occasion, as we were hiking 🥾 all the way up in the Wutong mountain ⛰️ on rough terrains we encountered the massive tomb shaped tower 🗼 (which is very likely a phone signal tower) and other refreshing facilities. They also have laid out a neat viewing platform to get to see the deep valley, from this hiking culmination point. Also I'd suggest to go in here during the spring season, around March, to get to see the blossoming 🌸 flowers all around the mountain. #tripblazers#urbanexplorer

#shenzhentrip Shenzhen is quite a mountainous region, which qualify it to be one of my favorites in China. Oftentimes in a few metres onto the main road 🛣️ you'll get to see the distant 🏔️ mountains with full green 💚 patches. So this time I decided to chase one of those mountains and hike to get the view of man-made skyscrapers 🏙️ from the natural skyscrapers ⛰️😜 Since I stayed in Luohu district in Shenzhen it's super convenient to just take a 20-min ride to reach Wutong mountain. You may start your hike in a neatly laid out cement road, but to get the amazing view you have to take a detour to a 🪨 rocky path, after some 2 kms. What's the fun in hiking in a cement road right ? 😉 #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #hiking

Wutong mountain is a very large area, This is the highest peak in Shenzhen. There are two options big and small Wutong both of them are fine. Also if you want to find the best scenery to look at the whole of Shenzhen city this mountain gives exactly that. Beautiful nature and a great challenge to climb to the top because there are so many stairs that you need to pass. it takes time to climb over there for 2-3 hours with many short breaks because you need to save energy when you go down. The best time to check it when is cooler is during autumn/winter time because when is spring/summer can be so humid weather. This mountain is worth a visit, when you climb up you will see spectacular city views and relax in the fresh oxygen-rich mountain air. #shenzhen #wutongmountain #staycation #gooutside #hiking #travelinspiration #nationalpark #exploring

Wutong mountain is the highest peak in the city, and as such is one of the most popular hiking destinations in Shenzhen. This mountain looms over much of the city and has challenged the casual and serious hiker alike. Wutong is has 2 main peaks, small Wutong and big Wutong, and they can be hiked separately or together. For the purposes of this article I will give the guide of hiking them both, and also focus on the ‘most common’ route. There are lots and lots of stairs on this hike, and since it goes up to 970M high, you will definatley be feeling your legs the next day. However a ‘wild’ route is also available which has less stairs and is more challenging. I would suggest the wild route for those who are more confident in their hiking ability, for the beginner or those with less experience the main stair route is probably the better choice. From bottom to the top of small Wutong will take around 90 mins, it is more or less a straight line, with multiple rest stops along the way. The views get progressively better as you go up, and when you get to the top you will be greeted by the iconic TV Tower. This is a jaw dropping landmark that simply must be seen up close at least once during your time in SZ. After you reach the top of Small Wutong, you can either go back down, or follow signs for ‘Big Wutong’. This is approximately another 90 mins or so from the top of small as it is longer not just higher. Along this route there are some pagodas which are a good place to rest and enjoy the view, and some ‘squares’ which have toilets and convenience stores. The peak of Big Wutong is marked by a marker stone, letting you know that you have conquered the summit. If you take the nature trail up it will take around 2 hours, it is a good trail with gradual incline. Stay on the paved road from the main small wutong entrance from the metro station. Walk for around 40 mins until you see this entrance. Follow it up to the peak of small wutong. #gooutside #passionpassport #urbanexplorer #solotravel #summervacation #shenzhen #china

Wutong Mountain, located in the east of Shenzhen, is the highest mountain in Shenzhen. Facing Dapeng Bay, standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the entire city scenery of Shenzhen, which is breathtaking. The scenic area has pleasant scenery, beautiful scenery and fresh air. It is a good place for tourists and Shenzhen citizens. Wutong Mountain is divided into Big Wutong and Small Wutong. From Small Wutong, you can see the Shenzhen TV Tower, while from Big Wutong, you can go directly to Xianhu Botanical Garden! #外游

So i went hiking yesterday at the Wutongshan National park (Sycamore hills). It is situated in the central south part of Shenzhen. Wutongshan (or Wutong mountain) is a rare natural scenic spot in China, which is located in urban area, and with a coastal spread of mountains and natural vegetations as its main scenery. Little bogota pavillion can be found tucked in on the foggy crossroads between Small Wutong and Great Wutong. Its on the right side of the road if you opted to go to Small Wutong. Challenging hike but worth it. Especially when you get to the Little Bogota. Climb up those ladders up and when you get to the top, try to meditate. That way you will find peace and solitude. Free entrance. And again, its foggy and mists all over it. Still try to take photos. ❤️ #travellater #wutongshan #wheninshenzhen #solofemaletraveller #hikingtrails #hiking

If ever visiting Shenzhen, be sure to take the short trip outside the city and hike Wutong Mountain 🏔🍃 As one of the best places to see incredible views of the city, this hike will take between three and four hours and is well worth the effort🌲 Follow the crowds up the steep stairs, and be sure to bring lots of water and food for energy🌾 Once arriving at the top, you will see incredible views of both Shenzhen and Hong Kong, both of which appear hidden among a sea of mountains🌄 This hike is suitable for beginner to medium ability, but take your time and enjoy the beautiful city views as you go!🌳🌱🌿#explore #urbanexplorer #hikingtrails #china #hike #travelinspiration #travel #seechina #photography

Wutong mountain is a beautiful scenic spot for shenzhenians. Hiking up in the normal path is too difficult. but if you love hiKing, you should try that path. you can even drive up,if you are in car.

Shenzhen, Shenzhen, the best night landscape to see the small Wutong Luohu is the earliest developed place in Shenzhen, Futian, in recent years, Nanshan became the boss. If you want to find a place in Shenzhen to see these three places at the same time, this place must be Wutong Mountain. The more than 900 meters high altitude of the Great Indus, more than three hours of mountain roads make people look down on the mountain, so Xiao Wutong is our best choice! route creeping small paulownia recommended to climb from 2 places: one is to take the road from the north gate of Wutong Mountain, about 2 hours to reach the small phoenix roof, all is a gentle cement road; the second is from the mountain road of Liantang The steps of the road can reach the top in more than an hour, but it is very steep. The best view point 1. The small pavilion under the Wutong Mountain TV Tower can look at the light and shadow changes from the sunset to the lights in the city. 2. The pavilion walks 200 meters to the right and has a small soil slope. When there is good weather, there will be a lot of photographers shooting here. Tips: 1. It is recommended to go hiking down the mountain with a flashlight, anti-mosquito and other light outdoor equipment 2. There are small shops and vending machines on the mountain, the price is not expensive, it is recommended to light Going forward 3. Choose sunny mountain climbing, rainy road slippery is prone to accidents

#cityplaybook #familytrip #localguides #historicallandmarks #postandearn If there’s one city that completely redefined what I thought China could be, it’s Shenzhen. Once a humble fishing village, this dynamic metropolis has transformed into one of the world’s fastest-growing tech hubs—a city where skyscrapers, startups, art, and green spaces come together in perfect rhythm. I began my journey at Nanshan, the heart of Shenzhen’s tech scene. Towering headquarters of companies like Tencent and DJI reminded me of Silicon Valley, but with a distinct Chinese energy. Yet amid the concrete and glass, I found Shenzhen Talent Park, a peaceful, palm-lined lakeside space filled with joggers, art installations, and brilliant sunset views. Next, I explored OCT Loft Creative Culture Park—a haven for artists, designers, and café lovers. Imagine Brooklyn vibes, but in Asia. Every wall had murals or art, and the converted factories now house design studios, bookstores, and minimalist tea lounges. I spent hours sipping cold brew and chatting with local creatives. For a deeper cultural experience, I headed to Splendid China Folk Village, where miniature versions of Chinese landmarks and live performances brought centuries of history to life. It’s a great spot to understand the diversity of China in one walkable area. Of course, shopping in Shenzhen is a unique thrill—Huaqiangbei is heaven for tech lovers. Gadgets, drones, phone parts—you name it, they’ve got it. For luxury and modern malls, COCO Park and MixC Mall are the places to be. What truly amazed me was how Shenzhen balances technology and nature. From beaches like Dameisha to scenic trails at Wutong Mountain, it’s easy to switch between city hustle and natural calm. Best Time to Visit October to December – Pleasant weather, clear skies, and fewer typhoons. Helpful Tips Shenzhen’s metro is world-class—clean, safe, and covers almost everywhere. Use WeChat Pay or Alipay—cash is almost obsolete. English may be limited, so translation apps come in handy.

If you find yourself in WuTong Village Mountain and you want a nice cup of coffee, I highly recommend Happiness Cafe’. The atmosphere is great and the staff are wonderful.

This small town restaurant tucked away in an artisan’s village called, WuTong Mountain in the north western district of Shenzhen, China serves the best coconut chicken soup that you will ever eat. The staff are some of the friendliest people that you will meet. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Meisha Point is located in Yantian District, Shenzhen. It is one of Shenzhen's top ten peaks, with an altitude of 753m. The main peak of Meisha Point looks like a huge cone towering out of the rolling mountains from a distance. In addition to the main peak, there are also subsidiary peaks with slightly lower altitudes, such as Egongji, Yuanshan, and Dawangding, with continuous mountains. There is a hiking trail at Meisha Point known as the most beautiful sky ladder in Shenzhen. A cloud viewing platform has been newly built on the top of the mountain, which can provide a 360-degree view. Looking around, you can see Dapeng Peninsula in the distance, Dameisha and Xiaomeisha beaches, Yantian Port, and Sanzhoutian Reservoir in the near distance, and you can also see Wutong Mountain from afar. 📍 Hiking Route Recommendations: There are many entrances to Meisha Point. Three classic routes are recommended, suitable for people with different physical strengths: 👉The Easiest Route: Shanhai Daguan Entrance 🔹Route: Take a taxi to "Shanhai Daguan Viewing Platform" → Climb up the mountain along the steps (about 1 hour to reach the top) 🔹Features: Short distance and gentle slope, suitable for beginners or family trips. 👉Classic Hiking Route: Tea Valley Entrance 🔹Route: Navigate to "Sun Yat-sen Gengzi Uprising Sculpture Park" → Walk along the winding mountain road to the entrance (about 2.5 hours for the whole journey) 🔹Features: Passing through forests and reservoirs, the scenery is diverse, and the physical requirements are moderate. 👉Challenge Route: Yantian Inspection Station Entrance 🔹Route: Yantian Inspection Station → Walk along the OCT East Highway → Entrance (about 3.5 hours for the whole journey) 🔹Features: The journey is long but the scenery is excellent, suitable for hiking enthusiasts. 📸 Must-see attractions Mountain Top Viewing Platform: 360° view, Yantian Port Container Terminal, Dameisha Bay, and the sea of clouds can be seen. Sunset: In the evening, the sunset dyes the sky red, which is a paradise for photography enthusiasts! Sanzhoutian Reservoir: You can see it from a distance while climbing the mountain. The blue lake and the green mountains reflect each other, like a picture scroll. ⚠️ Precautions Transportation: It is recommended to drive or take a taxi. For public transportation, take Metro Line 8 to "Yantian Road Station", and then transfer to a bus/taxi. Equipment: Wear non-slip sneakers, bring enough water and snacks (no supply points on the mountain), sunscreen hat, and mosquito repellent are essential. Time: The best time to climb the mountain is in the early morning or after 3pm to avoid the midday sun; it is best to reach the top 1 hour before sunset. Safety: There are no guardrails on some sections of the road, so you need to walk carefully; it is not recommended to climb the mountain on rainy days due to slippery roads. 📌 Travel Tips Meisha Point has not been fully developed, please take your trash with you and travel without a trace! There are fewer people on weekdays, and it is recommended to leave early on weekends (before 9am). Drones can be flown, but be careful to avoid no-fly zones.

Download the "Shenzhen Tong" APP to scan the code and take the bus. The subway can directly reach the attractions in the customs. It is recommended to drive to Dapeng Peninsula (make an appointment for passage in "Shenzhen Traffic Police" in advance). ✅ Dress: Short sleeves + thin trousers (mosquito prevention!), wear a bright dress with a straw hat by the sea, and wear a retro style to visit the creative park for amazing photos. ✅ Essentials: Power bank (charging points at attractions are limited), portable small fan (hot warning), sunscreen spray (replenish spray at any time) ⚠️ Note: May-September is the typhoon season, check the weather before departure, and don't go to the mountains on rainy days. 📸 [5 must-visit places] 1. Wutong Mountain · Cloud Sea Secret Realm 📍 It is recommended to take the shuttle bus from "North Gate" to the mountainside (CNY 10), and then climb for 40 minutes to "Pengcheng First Peak" ✨ Cloud seas often appear in the early morning of May! Wear a light-colored coat and stand on the top of the mountain. The clouds and mist will spread from your feet like you are riding the clouds. Remember to bring wet wipes to wipe your sweat. 2. Shenzhen Bay Park · Citywalk Ceiling 🌉 From "Liuhua Mountain" to "Talent Park" is 4 km. Go there at 6pm! ✅ Photo spots: • Verbena flower field in Liuhua Mountain (pink and purple flower sea with cross-sea bridge) • Seaside chairs in the Sunrise Theater (the sunset shines on your face, super gentle) • Don't forget to watch the lighting of the "Bay Area Light" Ferris wheel (lights up on time at 20:00!) 3.

Pork offal soup powder with satay sauce, so fresh that your eyebrows fall off • "Coconut Juice King": Freshly opened coconut with coconut jelly, a cup at 35℃ high temperature will instantly cool down 🍽️ [Local hidden food] ✔️ Coconut chicken: Choose sand ginger and green lemon dipping sauce, pick up the chicken after cooking for 1 min, and the bamboo fungus is full of soup, super fresh ✔️ Casserole rice: Find an old shop that has been open for more than 10 years, the pot should be golden and crispy, and mix well before pouring soy sauce ✔️ Sugar water shop: Try "Phoenix Dancong Milk Tea" + "Dried Tangerine Peel Red Bean Paste", which is heat-clearing and refreshing 💡 [Money-saving tips] • The shuttle bus at the North Gate of Wutong Mountain only accepts cash!

In Shenzhen, spring arrives when the Rhododendron moulmainense blooms on Wutong Mountain! When the mountain is covered with azaleas, it's as if the whole world is painted in romantic hues. Today, I'm sharing this hidden gem of a hiking guide for Wutong Mountain. Save it and let's go!🚶‍♀️ The Perfect Route Dengyun Trail➡Abandoned Cable Car Station➡Xiaowutong Azalea Valley➡Ten Mile Azalea Trail➡Tofu Head➡Butterfly Valley➡Phoenix Terrace➡Flower Screen➡Azalea King➡Haohan Trail➡Wutong Mountain North Gate The entire route is about 13 km, with a total climb of over 700m. The highest point is Tofu Head at 706m above sea level. Walking at a leisurely pace, it takes about 6 hrs. The scenery along the way is picturesque, and every step is full of surprises~ Transportation Guide • Departure: Take the bus to Liantang Subway Station and start your flower viewing journey from there. If you're driving, navigate directly to the Dengyun Trail starting point for a convenient and quick start. • Return: After your hike, you can easily return home by bus from the Wutong Mountain Bus Terminal or Wutong Mountain Main Station. Essential Gear • Energy replenishment: Bring at least 1 liter of drinking water and 500 ml of electrolyte drink to stay energized. Pack a delicious lunch and find a scenic spot along the way to enjoy a pleasant picnic. • Personal belongings: Wear comfortable hiking shoes and quick-drying clothes. Don't forget a sun hat for protection. Bring your phone and a power bank (10,000 mAh or more) to capture those beautiful moments. You can also download route maps in advance on apps like 2bulu or 6zicj for easy navigation. Must-See Spots • Azalea feast: Rhododendron moulmainense takes center stage, with vast expanses of pink flowers resembling a fairyland. Walk along the Ten Mile Azalea Trail, where different varieties of azaleas compete in beauty. Don't miss the exquisite azaleas at Phoenix Terrace, each one more vibrant than the last. • Natural beauty: Along the hike, the mountain forest is tranquil, with streams gurgling. In Butterfly Valley, butterflies dance among the flowers🦋. There are also various strange rocks and ancient trees, showcasing the wonders of nature. Practical Tips • The Lingyun Trail is challenging and not recommended for beginners. • There's a shuttle bus from Xiaowutong to the starting point of Haohan Trail, but it only goes uphill, not downhill. • For an aerial view, take a helicopter ride near Xiaowutong Square (CNY 298/person). • To see the "Azalea King," the treasure of the mountain, go to Flower Screen. • If your stamina is limited, you can return from Xiaowutong Azalea Valley. • Weekends are crowded. For a peaceful flower sea experience, start early on a working day. Embrace spring at Wutong Mountain and experience the romance of being surrounded by flowers. Are you ready for this beautiful spring hike?💓

In the early morning, with a sense of anticipation, I step into Wutong Mountain National Forest Park. The air is filled with the fresh scent of earth and the sweetness of morning dew. On both sides of the winding mountain path, layers of lush green forests stack up, with sunlight piercing through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows. As I reach halfway up the mountain, a mist slowly rises, sketching the distant peaks into poetic silhouettes. The sound of a babbling stream reaches my ears, and following the sound, I find a clear stream flowing quietly among the stones, with green moss adding a touch of serene beauty. Upon reaching the summit, the view suddenly opens up. From the mountain top, the outline of Shenzhen city and the sea reflect each other, resembling a magnificent painting. The mountain breeze blows, dispelling the fatigue of the climb, leaving only joy and freedom in my heart. Wutong Mountain is not only a natural sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle but also a journey of dialogue with nature. Every step is a poetic fusion of the soul and nature, making one linger and forget to return.

Shenzhen Yantian Enshang Wetland Park is so beautiful! 🌸 Recently, bell flowers and gesang flowers are in full bloom, attracting many citizens to come and see. In the past, friends who drove themselves needed to park their cars at Yi Hai City or Guangfu Department Store, and then walk or take the mountain-sea express line to the mountain. However, starting from March 1, 2025, private vehicles can make reservations for the parking lot of Enshang Wetland Park, with a limit of 60 vehicles per day (30 each in the morning and afternoon). The trial period will start on March 1, 2025 and will end at a later date. Opening hours are 7:00-19:00 daily. 🚙 Reservation rules: - Vehicle type: Only ordinary small passenger cars with 7 seats or less are allowed (trucks/buses/motorcycles are prohibited from entering) - Entry verification: You need to show your reservation information and vehicle documents and cooperate with the security check. #MeasureTheWorldOnHike #MonthlyMountainsEveryWeek #WhereToGoOnTheWeekend #ShenzhenFamilyTour #EnshangWetlandPark #WutongshanNationalForestPark #HikeMountainsSeeTheSeaAndFlowers #GoodPlacesForHiking #YantianTourism

🌸 I forgot that the bellflower is actually very small. I was looking forward to seeing bellflowers all over the mountains, but the reality was as shown in the second picture🤣 (but it is still beautiful when you look at it up close) 🚇 My route: Exit from Exit C of Haishan Subway Station, turn left after crossing the traffic light opposite, and you will see Guangfu Department Store (which has McDonald's, Nayuki, Shunde Lao, Cafe de Coral, etc.), and a little ahead is the Yantian District Government East Bus Stop. Take the Shanhai Express (6 yuan for adults, 3 yuan for children and the elderly; be careful not to get on the wrong bus, the Shanhai Express is marked as a tourist bus 🚌, there is no number, it runs every 30 minutes, and the journey takes about 10 minutes). The ticket validity period is shown as only 20 minutes, but it doesn’t matter if it exceeds the time limit, just wait for the bus~ 🌲 After getting off the bus at Forest Living Room, there is a large lawn with many "lonely" trees. I really love trees! (Tree spirit for sure!) After taking some photos, you can walk to the lake, where there are some geese "walking". There is also a small sea of ​​​​Ge Sang flowers next to it, which is also very beautiful (watch out for bees 🐝) 🌸 Go to the sea of ​​bells to see the bell flowers. Who would wear a skirt and casual shoes to climb halfway up the mountain to see the flowers? 😭 There are only two kilometers to the top of the mountain... It was quite far to see the bell flowers in Wutong Mountain before, how come I can see them in the park now? So I am a pig 🐷 Note: Both the sea of ​​bells and the row of bell flowers are about bell flowers, you can choose either one. I chose the sea of ​​bells flowers. It took about 40-50 minutes to walk up the mountain, and about 20 minutes to jog down the mountain. The main road is easier to walk on! 💧 After going down the mountain, we went to Enshang Reservoir. It was so quiet and comfortable. I loved it❤️ 🚶‍♀️ Return trip: I don’t like the feeling of waiting for nothing. On the way there, I wanted to get on the bus but there was no seat left. I waited at the bus stop for 30 minutes. Unfortunately, I bought the ticket too quickly, so I had to wait there. You should be able to get there by walking, and the scenery along the way is pretty good! Back to the topic, walk down the mountain from the forest living room, and after walking out of the forest entrance, walk straight towards Enshang intersection. It took me about 40 minutes (partly jogging) to reach Haishan subway station. 📝 Summary: If you come here to see the hanging bell flowers, you may be disappointed, but if you want to hike, it's worth it! The park is very big, and you can also go to Wutong Mountain, which is very suitable for running. I saw many big guys running~ It’s a pity that I slept late today (and my clothes were not suitable)... Waking up late ruined everything... I still regret not going to Anaconda Peak 😭 (Is it wrong to just want to see Anaconda Peak with blue sky and white clouds? Woohoo X﹏X) #BeautifulParksInTheCity #MeasureTheWorldOnHike #Bellflower
