Shantou Travel Guide

Shantou is located in the southeastern part of Guangdong, relatively near Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. It is one of the most important port cities in southeastern China. Shantou has a rugged coastline. Throughout all the seasons of the year, the climate is very comfortable. The summers are neither furiously hot nor are the winters bitterly cold. The extraordinary geographic environment has created a natural landscape in Shantou, the beauty of which will sweep you off your feet. This includes coastlines eroded by the sea, rarely seen in China, wondrous stone caves and beautiful bays.
