Location & Transportation

Longcheng Park sits in the heart of Longgang District, Shenzhen, where Qinglin Road and Aixin Road intersect. It’s easy to reach by metro (Line 3 or 16, exit near Longcheng Square) or bus. If you drive, there’s a free parking lot at the south entrance—perfect for weekend trips!

Natural Scenery

This 1.89-square-kilometer park is like a green oasis in the city. Rolling hills, dense trees, and winding trails make it a paradise for nature lovers. The 4.1-kilometer paths include steep stone steps for hikers and flat trails for casual walks. You’ll spot local birds, butterflies, and wildflowers—all part of Longcheng Park’s commitment to preserving its natural vibe.

Eco-Friendly Design

Longcheng Park sticks to eco-first principles. Instead of flashy imports, they use local plants that need little water. The trails are built around the hills, not through them, so wildlife stays undisturbed. Even the lighting uses solar power—talk about green!

Views & Photo Ops

For the best views, climb up to the Lovers’ Peak (a local nickname). At sunset, the city skyline contrasts with the forest—super Instagram-worthy! There’s also a bamboo grove and a lake with lily pads. Bring a camera; every season offers different hues—spring flowers, summer greens, autumn leaves, and winter mist.

Family-Friendly Extras

Families will love the shaded picnic areas and playgrounds. There’s a pavilion for resting, and some trails are wheelchair-friendly. For fitness fans, there are outdoor gym stations. Just keep an eye on kids—some paths get steep!

Cultural Touches

While mostly natural, Longcheng Park has subtle art: rock sculptures shaped like animals, wooden carvings with proverbs, and a “Wisdom Wall” with quotes. These add a quiet cultural vibe without overwhelming the nature.

Practical Tips

Wear comfy shoes—those hills are real! Bring water, snacks, and sunscreen. The park opens at 6 AM, so mornings are less crowded. On hot days, the tree cover keeps things cool, but winters might require a light jacket.

Local Vibe

Unlike touristy spots, Longcheng Park feels like a hidden gem. You’ll see neighbors walking their dogs, elders playing chess, and young couples strolling. It’s a glimpse into how Shenzheners relax—away from the skyscrapers.

Come for the hiking, stay for the tranquility. Longcheng Park proves you don’t need to leave the city for a mini-adventure!
