Dongguan's Lesser-Known City Walks: A Guide to Autumn Romance
👋🏻Hello, Dongguan
🍃I love the generous sunshine, shining freely
🔎No rush, no chasing distances, just strolling around Qishi Town
🐿️The messenger of autumn gently brushes the wind against your ears, storing the poetry in the air, and then gifting it to the upcoming winter
💛One-Day Tour Route💛
Dongqing Lake Wetland Park → Roast Goose Lai Fun → Riverside Ancient Village → Afternoon Tea → Jiangbin Park Sunset
🗾Dongqing Lake Wetland Park
Surrounded by a lake, it's recommended to visit in the morning or afternoon. It takes at least two hours to walk around the lake along the bridge. The Caolong Bridge showcases Dongguan's unique charm. The bald cypress forest has a beauty that doesn't belong to Dongguan.
🛖Riverside Ancient Village
A quiet and leisurely ancient village. Walking on the stone road, reminiscing by the lake, feeling the charm of history, and letting yourself settle down. I even found a lush heart-shaped tree in the village.
🌅Jiangbin Park Sunset
Located by the Dongjiang River, the sunset shines obliquely, and the elderly leisurely fish. The water reflects the sunset's light, making it a great place to watch the dusk.
📝Healing often happens in an instant, and romance will be reciprocated.

Zhaoqing | Wetland Park
| Wetland Park.
Take advantage of the mild weather for an autumn outing!
I've been to Qixingyan twice, having climbed three of the rocks and roughly toured some areas below. Lately, I keep seeing posts about the wetland park, so this time I headed straight for it.
tips: We entered the scenic area through the east gate and climbed the first rock with stairs right at the entrance. Instead of going back the same way, we took a different path to the south gate. When we saw the sign for the north gate, we headed straight there, passing by the now-closed amusement park (which was still open when I visited in March last year), and then it seemed like there was only one small path. We followed it and saw a moon-shaped monument with 'Xinghu Wetland' written on it. Without hesitation, we went in and found many small paths, but if you keep walking inside, you can see the forest.
The forest is really beautiful for photos, I really like that lush green feeling.
After our visit, we saw the north gate. Just outside, there are Guangdong University of Finance & Economics and Guangdong Polytechnic Normal University. If you have friends there, you can go in for a visit.

Zhaoqing·Seven Star Crags One-Day Tour Guide (Detailed Itinerary)
Zhaoqing·Seven Star Crags One-Day Tour Guide (Detailed Itinerary)
East Gate - Red Lotus Bridge - Guan Yu Pavilion - Iron Chain Bridge - North Face of Tianzhu Rock (Climbing)→Zhaixing Pavilion - South Face of Tianzhu Rock (Descending)→Red Lotus Bridge - Star Lake Cruise Boat - Chanlin Pier (Take a boat, if you buy the ticket online, you need to purchase it half an hour in advance to use it)→First Boat Trip: Flamingo Island - Second Boat Trip: Star Lake Wetland Park - Star Lake Misty Rain→Reclining Buddha Containing Elixir - Fairy Lake - Lingzhi Island - Shidong Ancient Temple→Return Boat Trip: to Star Lake Cruise Boat - Chanlin Pier
It looks quite complicated, but actually, the route is very simple. I have drawn a map at the end of the last two pictures, you can check it out if you are not clear.
You can choose to take a taxi to the Seven Star Crags Bridge, after crossing the bridge you will see the big characters for Seven Star Crags, where you can take photos and check in. Then walk to the East Gate, check your ticket to enter, or choose to enter from the South Gate, both are similar. Once inside, just keep walking forward, along the way there are Star Lake bamboo rafts, if you want to take a raft ride, buy a ticket there, the area circled in white on my map is the range of the bamboo raft tour. Walk to the Red Lotus Bridge, where lotuses are planted, and you can enjoy the lotuses. After crossing the bridge, you will reach Guan Yu Pavilion, where many fish are raised in the water and you can buy some fish feed to feed them.
There is also an Iron Chain Bridge to walk on, I took a detour to the Iron Chain Bridge and then reached the North Face of Tianzhu Rock, where there is a mountain trail. It takes about half an hour to climb up, not very high, but the scenery on the mountain is quite worth it. From the top, you can see the whole view of the Seven Star Crags scenic area, and there is a Zhaixing Pavilion at the top, where you can sit and rest. Then descend from another trail around the mountain, that is, to the South Face of Tianzhu Rock, so you don't have to go back the same way.
After coming down the mountain, pass the Red Lotus Bridge again and walk forward to Star Lake Cruise Boat - Chanlin Pier, if you buy the boat ticket online, you need to purchase it half an hour in advance, and it's a few yuan cheaper online. The boat ticket includes a round trip, first take the boat to Flamingo Island, the island is quite small, just to see flamingos, there are not many flamingos, about a dozen or twenty, but they look pretty good in photos. After crossing a bridge, you can see the red-crowned cranes, and you can also buy fish to feed them.
After that, take the boat again to Star Lake Wetland Park, if you don't take the boat, you can also enter the wetland park from another gate, which is a bit far, but you can't get to Flamingo Island without taking the boat. If you are not interested in birds, you can also skip the boat ride. In the wetland park, you can see the Reclining Buddha Containing Elixir, one of the ten scenic spots of Star Lake, which looks good at sunset, but I didn't wait for the sunset when I was there. Then just walk forward past Fairy Lake, Lingzhi Island, to reach Shidong Ancient Temple, which is the last scenic spot. Next to the ancient temple is the pier, take the boat back to the starting point Star Lake Cruise Boat - Chanlin Pier.
After a full circle, you are almost done with the tour. After the boat ride, the closest exit is the North Gate, if you want to go back to the East Gate or South Gate, it will take half an hour. I exited from the North Gate, and it took only about fifteen minutes to walk out.

Recommend taking the elderly and children to Qixingyan Wetland Park for fun.
Want to take kids and elderly to enjoy the mountains and water, but can't walk too far, and want to see beautiful scenery? Go to Qixingyan Wetland Park. Buy tickets at the north gate of Qixingyan and board the boat directly. You will visit three islands in total, and even strollers can board the boat. It's very leisurely and you can see cranes, flamingos, egrets, and more. It's really surprising and worth a visit!
