Not in Europe! Shenzhen 1h direct to Huawei Town architecture

Regret not coming earlier! Dongguan Songshan Lake! I always thought that I had to enter the park to see these European buildings🏠 I didn’t expect to see them in the scenic area!! 🅿️Parking: Navigate to Songshan Lake Misty Rain Parking Lot 🚴‍♀️Rent a bike: Double 80 a day Deposit 400💰 1️⃣Charles Bridge: A few minutes to the left from the bike rental place, you can take beautiful photos. Isn't it really Downton Manor? It's 20km around the lake. If you ride and stop to take pictures, it is recommended to reserve a day. If you are specifically for punching✅ friends, you can also not rent a bike. Because I am weaker and casually took pictures of the bridge area, I rode forward for half an hour without seeing other very eye-catching buildings, so I just turned around and went back. 2️⃣Kangqiao Train🚂: Navigate to the M area of Xiliubeipo Village, and you will see it (only 4.6km from Charles Bridge). There is a small train every few minutes. Don't take too many pictures!! There are also many small stalls selling water and food in the scenic area, but they all look unappetizing. It is recommended to bring some food. ⛺️
