Hey fam! After a hectic week in Shenzhen, my brain is about to turn to mush 🧠 Last weekend, I discovered a hidden gem for healing—the Xiangang Reservoir at the northern foot of Luofu Mountain, known as Guangdong's "Little Erhai"! No need to leave the province or squeeze into a high-speed train, just a 1.5-hour drive to unlock that "seaside" relaxation vibe. Every snap looks like a Japanese movie scene 📸 Here’s a tested, foolproof guide for hardworking folks to copy without hesitation!
📍Location: Xiangang Reservoir, northern foot of Luofu Mountain, Boluo County, Huizhou City (navigate to "Xiangang Reservoir Dam")

For thrifty workers, three cost-effective options:
Transportation | Duration | Cost per Person | Recommendation

High-speed train + Taxi 🚅 | 3h+ | 120-180 RMB | ⭐️⭐️⭐️
