Xiqiao Mountain Scenic Area

Xiqiao Mountain Scenic Area is located in the heart of the Pearl River Delta. It is an ancient volcano that lay dormant for tens of millions of years, with its main peak standing over 300 m above sea level. It is often said that "a trip to Lingnan is incomplete without visiting Xiqiao Mountain." As early as over 6,000 years ago, ancient inhabitants quarried stone here to make tools. Archaeologists have ranked this site alongside the Shanxi Emakou site as one of China's two major Neolithic stone tool workshops in the north and south. Thus, Xiqiao Mountain is hailed as the "beacon of Pearl River civilization." During the Ming Dynasty, Confucian scholars such as Zhan Ruoshui and Fang Xianfu established academies here to teach, earning it the title of "renowned mountain of Neo-Confucianism." The layering of prehistoric ruins, ancient quarrying sites, and historical academy relics within a single mountain is a rare cultural depth among Lingnan's famous peaks. The main views along the mountain unfold through peculiar rocks, secluded caves, and mountain lakes. The bronze statue of Guanyin on Daxian Peak stands over 60 m tall, serving as the landmark view of the entire mountain. From the summit, the open vista overlooks vast stretches of mulberry-dyke fishpond landscapes below. Baiyun Cave clusters Ming and Qing dynasty structures like Sanhu Academy, Kuiguang Tower, and Yunquan Immortal Hall alongside cliff carvings. Kang Youwei spent his youth studying here, and the cave's "Thousand-foot waterfall" was listed among the "Eight views of Yangcheng" as early as the Qing dynasty. The ancient quarrying site at Shiyan Rock features deep caverns, with underwater traces of ancestral stone extraction still visible today. Jiulong Rock's massive boulders interconnect through nine passages—bright outside yet dark within—creating a spelunking adventure akin to navigating a spiral shell. Tianhu Lake in the northwest, formed in an ancient volcanic crater, is embraced by emerald peaks on three sides. Since the Ming dynasty, locals have practiced the unique "mid-mountain dragon boat" tradition, and today, dragon boat races still take place on the lake during the Dragon Boat Festival. Xiqiao Mountain is also the hometown of martial arts master Huang Feihong. The Huang Feihong Lion Dance and Martial Arts Hall at the foot of the mountain was built on the original site of the Huang family ancestral temple, regularly featuring lion dance and martial arts performances, serving as a window to experience southern lion dance and kung fu culture. The attraction covers a large area, with sightseeing buses and cable cars connecting various attractions. The cable car links Baiyun Cave and Tianhu Lake, saving energy while offering scenic views. Visitors who prefer walking can follow the hiking trails to explore canyon views like Cuiyan and Shiyan Rock. During flower seasons, attractions like the Square Bamboo Garden, Camellia Garden, and Peach Blossom Garden are also worth visiting along the way.Foshan · 67.3km from Kaiping

Sha Mian

4.7/5

Sha Mian is a small island formed by alluvial deposits on the banks of the Pearl River's White Goose Pool. Formerly known as Shicui Zhou, it became home to clusters of European-style buildings left by consulates, banks, and foreign firms since the mid-19th century. Today, it stands as Guangzhou's exotic open-air architectural museum. The compact island is easily explored on foot, with Western street elements like statues, pavilions, flower beds, wooden benches, and fountains scattered throughout its lanes. Combined with the shade of century-old trees, every step feels like stepping into a vintage European streetscape painting. The island's highlights begin with its architecture: along the streets stand over 150 European-style buildings, including dozens of distinctive structures in Neo-Baroque, Gothic Revival, arcade-style, Neoclassical, and Sino-Western fusion styles. The red building at No. 2-6 Sha Mian Avenue was originally the Customs Officers' Club, built with red bricks and standing three stories tall, featuring pointed attic roofs on its north and south facades in imitation of 19th-century British Romanticism. No. 54 Sha Mian Avenue, formerly the HSBC Bank, is a four-story building with continuous exterior columns on the second floor extending to the third-floor roof, topped by a striking dome pavilion on its southwest corner. No. 48 Sha Mian Avenue exemplifies arcade-style architecture, with arched corridors on all sides and walls finished with washed pebble dash. The modestly scaled and simply structured Our Lady of Lourdes Chapel at No. 14 Sha Mian Avenue features a photogenic small Gothic Revival entrance porch. Sha Mian South Street's Christian Sha Mian Church houses elegant stained-glass windows, making it a dedicated stop for many visitors. With picturesque scenes everywhere, newlyweds taking wedding photos are often seen on the island, and artistic travelers also love to capture its views. We recommend strolling slowly along Sha Mian Street, then turning onto the riverside promenade on South Street, where the century-old banyan tree faces the expansive river view of White Goose Pool—especially beautiful in the evening light. As the city lights up, settle into a café housed in a historic Western-style building, gazing at the river through the window for a unique ambiance.Guangzhou · 98.6km from Kaiping

This attraction offers great value for money, and the landscaping is very unique. The farmhouses within the scenic area have a pleasant environment, and there's unlimited access to electric vehicles at each stop. The performance at Tianhu Lake is also a great show; the half-hour performance showcases the hard work and dedication of the performers, which has finally paid off.

Jingshan Slide, also known as the Sunset Roller Coaster, winds its way down the mountain from the summit. You can control your speed, feel the wind rushing past your ears, and enjoy panoramic views of Xianglu Bay as you glide – a truly unique experience. The track is well-maintained; the curves are exciting but not too thrilling, making it a great stress reliever for young people. You can take a cable car up the mountain and ride the slide down, combining tranquility and activity for a rich and varied experience.

Taishan Historical and Cultural District is a large group of arcade buildings. The overall appearance is clean, tidy and beautiful. It is much more beautiful than the arcade buildings I saw in Guangzhou and Wuzhou before. The TV series "Kuang Biao" was also filmed here. Zhang Songwen's Weibo also mentioned it many times. I really like it.

In the afternoon, we visited the provincial museum and happened to catch a free guided tour. The guide's explanation was very professional and detailed, demonstrating a true depth of Van Gogh studies. He shared many touching stories, which were very inspiring. Finally, there was a movie to watch, which the children found very rewarding.

The Shenzhen Bay Area Light Ferris Wheel is definitely worth a visit! 🎡✨ The entire area outside is great for photos; the white buildings paired with the Ferris wheel create a fantastic atmosphere, and you can easily take plenty of pictures just by walking around. We went during the day when the weather was great, and the view from the ride was truly expansive. You could see the sea, city buildings, and the entire Happy Harbour below. The scenery was especially beautiful as it slowly rose higher. Plus, the cabins were air-conditioned, so you wouldn't feel like you were being steamed alive on Shenzhen's sweltering heat! 🤣 The Ferris wheel rotates relatively slowly and is very stable throughout. Even for someone like me who's a little afraid of heights, it was quite comfortable; there was no sudden feeling of weightlessness. It's quite suitable for couples 💕 They even help take photos before you go on the Ferris wheel, and when you come down, you can choose to have the photos framed and made into souvenir cards. We bought some in the end, although it's a standard tourist attraction souvenir photo routine, the finished product was actually quite nice hahaha 📸(˶ˊᵕˋ˵) However, there was one thing that really left me speechless 🙂 I completely understand that lighters can't be brought on board during security checks, and it's fine to leave them there temporarily according to regulations. But when I came down, I found that a security guard had taken my lighter! Luckily, I noticed and got it back in the end 🔥😅 The item itself wasn't expensive, but the feeling was really strange. I hope the staff can be more regulated in this regard and not take away tourists' personal belongings without permission. Putting this little incident aside, the Ferris wheel experience itself is quite good. The scenery is beautiful, great for taking photos, and the surrounding environment is also very comfortable 🌊🎡 If it's your first time in Shenzhen or a date for a couple, you can arrange to ride it once. The weather is really great, I recommend coming during the day or in the evening. It's quite nice to see the city and the sea at the same time~ (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

In 1859, during the reign of Emperor Xianfeng of the Qing Dynasty, British official Burke proposed setting up a concession in Shamian. The Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi, Lao Chongguang, readily agreed, promising that the Chinese side would first excavate a 30-meter-wide, 1200-meter-long canal (today's Shaji Canal) north of Shamian to separate it from the mainland. Two bridges would be built across the canal, one connecting to the west embankment and the other to Shaji Road. Shamian boasts over 160 years of history, and the Shamian West Bridge, the stone steps, the iron cannons, and numerous Western-style buildings are the best testament to this.
