Location & Accessibility

Guanlan Landscape And Pastoral Tourism Culture Park sits in Shenzhen’s Guanlan Town, nestled between the Longhua and Bao’an districts. It’s easy to reach—just a 40-minute drive from Shenzhen International Airport or Shenzhen Railway Station. If you’re staying in downtown Shenzhen, expect a short taxi or bus ride to escape the city buzz. The park is right next to the famous Guanlan Golf Club, so golf lovers might want to combine a visit!

Natural Scenery: A Urban Getaway

This 400+ mu (about 26 hectares) park feels like a hidden oasis. Think rolling hills, lush forests, and a winding river that cuts through the landscape. The best part? It’s all natural beauty—no overly polished attractions. You’ll see locals fishing by the lake, families picnicking under trees, and couples strolling along bamboo-lined paths. At sunset, the sky turns pink, and the reflection on the water looks straight out of a painting.

Cultural Highlights

Don’t expect loud temples or historic ruins here. Instead, Guanlan Landscape And Pastoral Tourism Culture Park focuses on modern eco-tourism with a touch of traditional Chinese vibes. You’ll spot red-roofed pavilions by the lake, bridges inspired by ancient architecture, and even a herb garden where you can learn about traditional Chinese medicine. It’s a calming mix of nature and culture without feeling too touristy.

Facilities for Every Traveler

What makes this park stand out? It’s all-in-one. Tired? Book a room in their lodge-style hotel. Hungry? Enjoy fresh seafood or local dishes at the on-site restaurants. Want to relax? Soak in the hot springs (yes, real ones!) or try foot massages at the wellness center. For kids, there’s a splash park and animal farm. Evenings get lively with outdoor movie screenings or bonfire nights.

What to Expect During Your Visit

A day here feels like a mini-vacation. Start with a boat ride on the lake, then hike the nature trails (easy paths, no steep climbs). Rent a bike to explore the grounds or try fishing in the pond. If you’re visiting in summer, the water activities are a hit. For something unique, check out the orchid exhibition hall—it’s Instagram gold.
