Tea Stream Valley⛰: Inside, there is a town built to mimic Switzerland's Interlaken, filled with exotic charm, giving you the feeling of strolling in Switzerland🇨🇭, as if the distant mountains are the Alps🗻
The wetland garden is as dazzling as a rainbow🌈🌈🌈, with rows of pink🌸, deep red🌺, and yellow🌼 flowers, like ribbons stretching across the hillside⛰️, incredibly splendid~
(Thumbtack) Practical tips: Take the scenic area's small train🚞 to tour Tea Stream Valley, where the villas🏡 nestled in the mountains⛰️ are scattered in an orderly fashion, also forming a beautiful landscape🏜~
🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Knight Valley is a recreational paradise, with a water park🌊, roller coasters🎢, glass walkways, cable cars🚡... thrilling rides🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that can make your adrenaline soar. What are you waiting for?
The Sea of Clouds Highland in Knight Valley is the best viewing platform to overlook the Overseas Chinese Town East, offering a 360-degree panoramic cloud corridor. It is the only cloud-top extreme spinning wheel in Asia, and the 360-degree rotation will make you scream besides screaming😱😱😱
📍Detailed address:
The Overseas Chinese Town East is located in Dameisha, Yantian District, Shenzhen. It is recommended to drive there🚗. If taking a bus🚌, you can get off at the Meisha Hospital🏥 station and then walk to the destination~
💰Average cost: Knight Valley and Tea Stream Valley have separate ticket sales. Knight Valley tickets are more expensive, with adult tickets🎫 around 180, while Tea Stream Valley is cheaper, with adult tickets🎫 around 115~

Overseas Chinese Town
Guangdong Shenzhen Overseas Chinese Town
An oasis in the city, with fresh air and a beautiful environment. Take a ride on the miniature train, make a round around the scenic area, and enjoy the natural scenery along the way.
The clouds over Eastern Overseas Chinese Town are the most beautiful!
If I were to recall the scenery of the entire Eastern Overseas Chinese Town, what left the deepest impression on me would definitely be the clouds here. Eastern Overseas Chinese Town is divided into attractions on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, everyone can enjoy various amusement facilities to their heart's content. Of course, if it's the weekend, you might still need to queue up, but I prefer to take the cable car up to the mountain.
Although there are relatively fewer amusement facilities on the mountain, and the activities are more singular, I prefer to stand on the mountain and look at the distant scenery. There, you can see the sea of Yantian, the distant clouds, and countless beauties.
On the mountain of Eastern Overseas Chinese Town, we can take the rotating cloud ladder to higher places, or we can take a leisurely walk along the trail. However, I must remind everyone that some paths are relatively narrow, and if there are many visitors, safety should be a priority, especially in the hot summer. Heat prevention is crucial because the higher you go, the closer you are to the sun, and the ultraviolet rays by the seaside are exceptionally strong.
A great weekend destination in Shenzhen, come relax for a moment at the Overseas Chinese Town East (OCT East)
🥹 Work has been too busy lately, and I haven't had the chance to go out and play, and I don't want to travel too far‼️ Away from the hustle and bustle of the city center, OCT East is a great choice, and it's quite convenient in Shenzhen too😘 Take advantage of the weekend and make plans with friends to come to OCT East, it's quite a surprise for the first visit~ It's relaxing to stroll around and enjoy the beautiful sights🥰
🌊 Shenzhen's weather is still quite hot, so sisters coming to OCT East must remember to bring: sunscreen🧴, mosquito repellent, sun hats, mineral water, etc.😘 Be prepared for any needs🧜♂️

🥳 Visually, it's quite stunning‼️ Although the drop isn't huge, it's great for taking photos when the weather is nice~ When I arrived, I even encountered a group of primary school students visiting, so cute and well-behaved🥹
🏯: Hayfield Town
🥳 It's called a small town, but describing it as a princess's castle wouldn't be an overstatement. Inside the town, there are restaurants, tea shops, etc.~ The value for money is quite good, and it's nice to take a break and recharge when you're tired~ It's said that there are occasional performances, but unfortunately, I didn't encounter any. However, taking photos inside is really amazing‼️ You must bring your sisters to take beautiful pictures🥰

You don't have to worry about getting wet while playing, and the feeling of weightlessness comes as you rush down from high up‼️ And the splashes are quite big~ I played two rounds in a row, really happy🥹
🎢: Wooden Roller Coaster
🥳 The all-wood roller coaster is quite fast, but the slope isn't very steep, it's quite thrilling. I only played with my sisters 3 times💃
🚠|Jungle Cable Car Line 1
🥳 Riding this cable car, you can experience being surrounded by the jungle. It's a relatively large cabin that goes straight up to the mountain top, the scenery along the way is beautiful and quite cool😘 You can also take the cable car back down the same way🥰
