Nanhai Bay Forest Ecological Park

Nanhai Bay Forest Ecological Park, known as "Guangdong's Jiuzhaigou Valley", is a national 4A tourist scenic attraction, where the content of negative ions in the air is as high as 63,600 /m³.

The park, like an emerald inlaid on the west coast of the Nanhai, owns a mountain trail following the Silver Stream for about 3 kilometers. And the spotlight of the park is the Silver Stream, flowing from the tea mountain on the west bank and stretching for dozens of miles all year round.

Walking in the park, you can immerse yourself in the beautiful scenery such as waterfalls and crystal-like lakes, which not only impress you but also refresh you with comfortable coolness.

There is another way of leisure you cannot miss when you visit the Nanhai Bay Forest Ecological Park--the river trekking tour. With the deepest part not over the adult's calf and the shallowest part only to the instep, the 1.28-km stream is suitable for children to have fun with the water.

Streams, boardwalks and bluestone steps all integrate together as a whole, making it a major feature of the park. And the mountain trail is smooth and easy to walk for all visitors.

Yang-Nanhai Bay Campsite

The campsite, facing extensive tea mountains, situates along the Silver Lake.

Here, not only can you taste delicious snacks in the spacious and clean tent house and appreciate the fantastic lake view, but you can also have fun in the pool and sit on the lawn to relax yourself. Here, you can forget all the troubles, just enjoy the simple happiness and live in the moment.
