European-style town just an hour from Shenzhen

From Shenzhen, you can reach a European-style town within an hour's drive. European architecture, a fairytale-like train, and stunning scenery on a good weather day—it truly feels like being abroad✈️ 📍Location: Huawei European Town, Songshan Lake, Dongguan 🚗Transportation: Self-drive or ride-hailing 🎫Tickets: Free ✅About the visit 🔸The Songhu Yanyu trail spans 22 kilometers, offering breathtaking views along the way. It's a relaxing experience but requires some physical stamina💪. 🔸Whenever I go out for photos, I always bring a lot of stuff. This time, I carried the Kipling Seoul backpack, which has a super large capacity and multiple compartments, making it easy to find things without rummaging through the bag! The bag itself is lightweight, and the wide shoulder strap design ensures comfort even after cycling all day. Plus, it comes with a cute little monkey keychain🐵. It's recommended to visit on a sunny day☀️, preferably in the morning or on weekdays when there are fewer people, making it easier to take great photos. Don't forget to apply sunscreen! 📷3 must-visit photo spots (all located on the outskirts): 1️⃣📍Location: Navigate to Songhu Yanyu - University Road Parking Lot Entrance After parking, walk about 15 minutes to reach Charles Bridge. You'll find European-style castles, a lakeside greenway at sunset, and if you're lucky, people rowing boats🚣. Every shot here is picture-perfect📸. 2️⃣📍Location: Navigate to Xiliu Beipo Village "Kangqiao Bus Stop" From the bridge, you can capture the fairytale train🚂. It's best to visit during sunset to watch the train slowly enter the castle as the sun sets—it's incredibly romantic🌅. 3️⃣Xiliu Beipo Village Area B (Southeast Gate) There's a security booth at the entrance, and about 100 meters ahead, you'll find marked parking spaces. From the bridge, you can capture the train and castle in the same frame🏰🚂. Make sure to mark these spots for your next visit to guarantee stunning photos!😉
