It's the coastline that even the National Geographic Magazine says is beautiful!!!
Dongxichong is located at the southernmost tip of the Dapeng Peninsula in Shenzhen, surrounded by mountains on three sides and the sea on one side. There are five or six small mountains along the way, and the coastline is long. It has been rated by the National Geographic Magazine as one of the most beautiful coastlines in China. It is also one of the most classic and popular outdoor hiking routes in Shenzhen. I started from Baoan District, took the subway to Shenzhen North Station (around 7:30), then took the E11 bus (fare 10¥), and arrived at the Xinda Bus Terminal around 9:40! At 10:00, I took the Dapeng Holiday Shuttle Line 3 (fare 2.5¥) to Dongchong Bathing Beach Bus Station (arrived around 10:30), and then my Dongxichong crossing journey began!
From Dongchong Bathing Beach Bus Station, I walked over a bridge and then started climbing. The rest of the journey was basically half climbing and half along the sea. It was really amazing to see the sea from the mountain, which made me marvel at the magic of nature! Walking along the sea on the rocks, you can feel the wind and waves, which is really joyful. Plus, the weather was super nice, and the color of the sea was really beautiful. You can clearly see that the water is a gradient of blue and green! In this way, you have to walk about five or six small mountains. Each small mountain has a supply station, where water, ice cream (old popsicles seem to be 10 yuan for three, cheaper than Wutong Mountain haha) and snacks are available! The scenery along the way is really beautiful (as you can see in the picture, the real scene is even more beautiful). There are several places with national flags, which are really cool! Around two o'clock in the afternoon, I arrived at a supply station not far from the observatory. There are two choices: one is to climb the mountain to the observatory; the other is to continue along the coastline, which seems to lead to the most beautiful plank road of the observatory, and then to Xichong! You can also take a shuttle bus (10¥) from the observatory parking lot to Xichong Beach.
Route:
Self-driving: You need to make a reservation to enter Dapeng, and you can navigate directly to Xichong No. 4 Beach! Then take a taxi to Dongchong Bathing Beach
Transportation: Subway to Shenzhen North Station - E11 bus - Xinda Bus Terminal - Dapeng Holiday Shuttle Line 3 (this bus is only available during holidays and weekends from May 1st to October 7th, starting at 10:00, about half an hour) - Dongchong Bathing Beach Bus Station/Dongchong Community Work Station Bus Station; or subway to Shenzhen North Station - E11 bus - Nanao Moon Bay Bus Station - M231 bus - Dongchong Bathing Beach Bus Station (I recommend this route, because M231 is available every day, and there are many, I knew it later, I feel like I wasted a lot of time hhh)
Return trip: Walk from Xichong Beach for about 20 to 30 minutes to Hesuyu Village (there are homestays and food here) -M232 bus to Zhongzhe Xing (also available) -M426 bus to Yanzi Lake Subway Station!
Suggestions: Pay attention to sun protection! The weather is very good, the scenery is beautiful, and the sea is blue! But the sun is very hot! I got sunburned! Wear comfortable shoes, don't bring too many things, there are things for sale at the supply station! Restrooms: There are not many restrooms near the observatory, there are several restrooms along the way, some of them cost money, and some are free, they are very close, it seems unnecessary to go to the ones that cost money
Wear gloves, because some places need to pull iron chains!
I haven't been to Tung Chung for more than ten years. It just happens to be a holiday, so there are not many people; entering the beach, each person charges 30 yuan, the water quality is clear, it is very suitable for a family to come and tread the waves.
There are many places worth visiting near Tung Chung, and the Ngong Ping Mountain cable car is also taken nearby. There is also an outlet in Tung Chung. If you like to buy and buy, you can come here to shop for a lot of discounted goods. The house was particularly novel to see in Tung Chung, with the pillars supporting the building underneath.
Some people said in the comments that the beach in Tung Chung is relatively small. In fact, he just saw a small beach on the side of Tung Chung. The sand is very fine, the coastline is very short, and the sea is very blue. But the entire beach in Dongchong is really not small and big, and the rest of the beach is covered by stone, and it has become a paradise for many hiking lovers.
Can I bring pets to the beach? Been there once, really beautiful beach, want to go again
Very nice place, worth seeing, very good
Because Hong Kong also has a place called Tung Chung, many people will think that it means here. In fact, we are talking about Tung Chung Beach in Shenzhen South Australia. There is also a beautiful coastline and a mature hiking route. However, he needs tickets. If you need to pay tickets for the beach
