Shenzhen Dapeng Suocheng is an ancient city located in Dapeng New District. It is about an hour's drive from downtown Shenzhen and about a 10-minute walk from the seaside B&B town Jiaochangwei. There are still residents living in the city, and there are also museums, some specialty shops, coffee shops, restaurants and B&Bs. If you want to experience this ancient city, you can stay in a B&B in the city. I feel that the shop owners who open stores in the city are people with dreams, and they hope to share their love with others. The ancient city is a good place for photography during the day. You can wear your favorite Hanfu for photography. After nightfall, some restaurants and bars are still open in the city, and you can also eat kiln chicken at nearby restaurants outside the city. 🐔  #中国 Mainland Attractions #Shenzhen #大平素城 # Mainland Customs Clearance #Photography Good Place #古城

Use a weekend and enjoy some great scenery of Dapeng Ancient Fortress in Shenzhen. Best option is going by a car, but there is also a bus E11 and it stops nearby. Beach is just few hundred meters away. There are nice coffee shops, tea places, one of the best pizza places on left side from entrance. Yes, wood stove pizza! Personally, I enjoy sketching there, drinking some cold beverage and just absorb the vibe that this place gives. Sound of birds, cats sleeping on porches, children play around. Nighttime is also fun, music bars and restaurants with local food and cold beer. You can walk for hours and still don't see all small alleys and details around houses. It's a place of wonder. #beachlife #fortress #sketching

In Dapeng, Shenzhen, there are many old houses that have been transformed or revitalized into various restaurants, homestays and art galleries.

If you walk by and take a look, you can feel the traces of time and the beauty of time.

Dapeng Fortress is a square military fort in Shenzhen. Many buildings date to the Qing Dynasty, with a few survivals from the Ming. The narrow cobbled streets and quaint stone houses are home to many cafés and small shops. A former grainery is home to a small museum about the Chinese navy; it has few displays and no English (free). You can go to the top of the East Gate (东门，Dōngmen) for a good view as well as a 3D map of the old town inside the gatehouse. Outside the old town there is also a temple (东山寺, Dongshansi) and a botanical garden (40 yuan), which we didn't visit this time. The fortress is not very big but there are many narrow streets so you can spend a couple of hours wandering around. You could easily combine a visit here with a trip to one of the beaches on the Dapeng Peninsula. Cost: Free entry; typical tourist area prices for food and drinks Good for: history lovers, photography, coffeeshops Accessibility: Cobblestone streets and stone steps; some areas not wheelchair accessible #urbanexplorer #springblossomshenzhen #lightthecity #springblossoms #fortress #history #oldtown #photography #nofilter #flowers #temple #shenzhen #guangdong #dapeng

The Dapeng Fortress might be my favorite ancient town in Shenzhen. A leisurely walk of the whole Dapeng Fortress would take about 2 to 2.5 hours. The Dapeng Fortress was constructed during the Ming Dynasty in the 14th century. In 1394, the 27th year of the Hongwu Reign of Ming Dynasty, the authorities began constructing the Dapeng Fortress, which was intended to serve exclusively defense purposes against pirates, foreign enemies and resistance fighters. Together with the Nantou Ancient City in Nanshan, Shenzhen, the Dapeng Fortress was one of the 24 defense outposts along the mountain ridges of Lingnan (southern China). The Dapeng Fortress was especially important for coastal defense during the Qing Dynasty. In 1704, the 43rd year of the Kangxi Reign, the Qing Court turned the Dapeng Fortress into a naval base, which oversees the coastal defense of all of Shenzhen and Hong Kong. This role of the Dapeng Fortress would be very important during the Opium Wars of the 1800s. In 1839, General Lai Enxi, who was a native of Dapeng, sounded the canons that would signal the defense of Kowloon against British attacks. Thus the curtains were drawn for the Opium Wars. After Hong Kong Island was ceded to Britain in 1940 and before ceding Kowloon to the British in 1860, the Qing Court has constructed the Walled City of Kowloon for the purpose of defending Kowloon. At the time, generals from the Dapeng Fortress oversaw the Walled City of Kowloon. As such, the Dapeng Fortress had a very close relationship with the history of Hong Kong. #shenzhen #dapeng #dapengfortress #历史古迹 #china #ancienttown #ancienttownvibes #mingdynasty #qingdynasty #opiumwar #fortress #museum #historicallandmarks
