Xin'an (Nantou) Ancient City/新安(南头)古城
This is the original county town for the county which originally encompassed Hong Kong and Shenzhen. There has been a town on this site since the fourth century. Much of the old town has been demolished and replaced by eight storey residential buildings in the urban village style, but Xin'an has still maintained the flavour of a Cantonese town throughout the ages with vibrant street life along narrow streets. The Ming Dynasty wall and gate remain magnificently preserved as do the Guan Yu Temple outside the gates, the naval and civil headquarters, a silver shop, an opium den and even a brothel. Visit the eighteenth century Flower Street or street of brothels, a narrow alley with an eighteenth century official stele denouncing the evils of prostitution.

How to go there:
By taxi: I would say it's best to get off at ShenNan Dadao/Nanxin Lu (深南大道/南新路). There is a foot bridge crossing Shennan Dadao and you should spot the GuanDi Temple/关帝庙 across the street from where you can see the South Gate of Xin'an already.
By metro: Get off at Taoyuan station (Line 1, Luobao line, green) and use Exit A or B. From there you have to walk towards north along Nanhai Ave, cross Shennan Dadao on the footbridge you see first in my video and continue to walk another 5 minutes from there along Nanhai Ave till you reach the East Gate on your left hand side.

Wutong Mountain Wútóng Shān Waterfall 梧桐山, Shenzhen, China
This Video features one of the many Waterfalls flowing down
Mount Wutong (Chinese: 梧桐山; pinyin: Wútóng Shān; Hong Kong Hakka: Ng2tung2 san1) is a mountain located near the border of Luohu and Yantian in Shenzhen, China. At 943.7m, it is the tallest mountain in Shenzhen.
The mountain is source of the Sham Chun River (or Shenzhen River) that flows into Shenzhen and Hong Kong.
Wutong has been a recognized beauty spot since at least the Ming Dynasty when it was included in the Eight Great Views of Xin'an County and was celebrated in poetry.
There are several routes to the top varying significantly in difficulty. The broad road will be a gentle climb. But be prepared for a good 5 hours if you intend to go to the top and back. There are two peaks, Lesser Wutong where the Shenzhen TV Company has its handsome transmission tower, and Greater Wutong which is reached via the notoriously difficult Hao Han Slope. On a clear day, the views from the summit over Mirs Bay and the mountains of Hong Kong's New Territories are indescribably beautiful. Night views over the city set against the sweep of Shenzhen Bay are also to die for.
The Mountain is just 944 meters tall !

Today, I was invited to Dapeng Fortress in Eastern ShenZhen by a few locals. We walked around, explored, and learned a bit about civilization from the past. It was an interesting place to walk around.
We then went to a local restaurant where we ate mountains of seafood! Everything tasted amazing, except the giant snails - I ate one, and left the rest for everyone else haha.
After that we went to a local beach and hung out for a bit. My local friend rented a boat - and we all went for a cruise next to the beautiful mountains of Eastern ShenZhen. I didn't realize this area was so beautiful until we seen it from the sea. So cool.
Definitely a fun day!
