March is the time to admire flowers in Shenzhen, miss it and you'll have to wait another year
March is one of the most beautiful seasons in Shenzhen. Starting from the main entrance of Wutong Mountain, along the road, some say
missing the cotton rhododendrons on Wutong Mountain is like missing the spring of Shenzhen. From late March to early April
is the best time to appreciate the cotton rhododendrons on Wutong Mountain. At this time, if you climb just a little
you can see large swathes of pink, the best spots for flower viewing
01-Jiānguān Valley is located north of the Xiaowutong Square, covering an area of about 20 hectares, and is the place with the richest cotton rhododendron resources on Wutong Mountain; it offers a rich viewing experience, allowing you to look at the flowers from different angles, including straight on, from above, and from below. You can follow the Shifang Path, Xunxiang Path, and Huaxi Path to walk among the flowers and reach deep into the valley, enjoying the secluded charm among the woods. 02-Wanhua Screen is about 300 meters southwest of Fenghuang Platform, covering an area of about 15 hectares. The slope of the garden road is covered with competing cotton rhododendrons forming a unique flower wall, like a screen; the ancient rhododendron forest, composed of more than 1,000 ancient cotton rhododendron trees, stretches for hundreds of meters. When in full bloom, it forms a flower waterfall that extends from the top of the slope to the bottom of the valley, a spectacular sight. Below the Wanhua Screen, there is a 'Thousand-Year Rhododendron King' with a diameter of 58 centimeters and a height of 10.5 meters, requiring two or three adults to encircle it, worthy of everyone's admiration.
03-Doufutou Doufutou is the second highest peak of Wutong Mountain, and the scenic spot in the Doufutou Azalea area is named 'Rhododendron Crying Red'. Experts named it by combining the plant name and the beautiful and touching story of 'Rhododendron Crying Blood' from the ancient Shu kingdom. Covering more than 300 acres, the azaleas grow on both sides of the mountain ridge, presenting a bright and eye-catching sea of flowers in March, reminiscent of the landscape effect of azaleas blooming all over the ridge.
04-Ten-Mile Rhododendron Corridor The starting point is at the Xiaowutong TV Tower 'Wutong Tea Sea', passing through Dongjuan Brocade, Doufutou, Butterfly Valley, Shuangfeng Pavilion, and ending at the Hao Han Slope platform, with a total length of 2 kilometers. You can enjoy the mountains, the sea, and a distant view of Hong Kong along the way. There are camellias, fuchsia, lilac rhododendrons, cotton rhododendrons, azaleas, red lotus, and more than ten varieties of rhododendrons blooming in succession along this mountain ridge, together creating the magnificent scene of 'Ten Miles of Rhododendrons, Ten Miles of Brocade'.

Lushan, the highest mountain in Shenzhen. Sitting alone on the strange stone on the side of the river, listening to the stream groaning, watching the waves splashing, pitying the grass on the side, smelling the deep trees and birds, a poetic landscape picture appeared in front of you...
There are few bathrooms, few road signs, and I don’t know what mountain I am on the top of the mountain, and I don’t know which road I am taking. Only the TV tower and Butterfly Valley have signs.
Wutong Mountain offers a great panoramic view on Shenzhen Bay Area from the top of tallest hill surrounded this city. It is truly breathtaking! wow!
Route: Xiuyu Road 2 hours Biyu Road half an hour Daegu Peak half an hour Haohanpo 2 hours Taishan Mountain 2 hours Beimen Daegu Road: the shortest route up the mountain, and only a short steep slope, the overall is relatively easy, you can take the car to the management station and start climbing. At the end of Xiuyu Road is Biyan, and then to the top of the mountain! Fortunately, I chose this road to the mountain. If I choose Mount Tai, I will collapse, and I will vomit all down the mountain! The top of the mountain: The view is wide and there is a feeling of looking far under the sky. The whole Shenzhen city has a panoramic view! There is Yantian Port, China's largest single port, and the tallest building Ping An Financial Building! Feel comfortable! Haohanpo: steep and countless steps, there is a feeling of climbing Taishan 18 falls. In the middle is a ten-li cuckoo, but unfortunately it has not been spent. Haohan slope down is the service center, there is a supermarket bathroom, you can rest here. From now on, the road down the mountain is a wide road, and the car can enter and exit. Mount Tai: I chose this road down the mountain by mistake, and my legs were soft! The last exit is a lake. From the lake, it is Hengling bus station, and you can also take a taxi back. It starts at about 9:30 throughout the day, ends at 4:30, 7 hours. The overall feeling is still good, and finally the wish to climb the top of Lushan before the Year of the Rabbit is coming! The most important thing to note is to keep the phone full of electricity! Don't wear too much clothes!
