A "Spaceship" Between Mountains and Sea! A Complete Guide to Visiting the Shenzhen Observatory

The Shenzhen Observatory is a visual feast! ✨ Its silvery-white dome towers atop a cliff, while a 900-meter-long, pure white plank road winds between the mountains and the sea, creating a breathtaking backdrop against the indigo waters. The sea-accessible staircase and 360-degree observation deck are truly stunning, worthy of National Geographic-level scenery.

There are two ways to enjoy the museum: For a more in-depth tour, you'll need a reservation (available on the Shenzhen Astronomy official account at 10:00 AM on Mondays); Just exploring the plank road is free and appointment-free. Mornings are recommended for softer sunlight, fewer crowds, and a more vibrant blue.

Practical Tips: If driving, use the P7 parking lot; the shuttle bus is 10 yuan per person up the mountain. Sunscreen, sneakers, and drinking water are essential; there are no shops on the mountain. For weekend self-drive tours, be sure to book a reservation at Dapeng, which offers free access to traffic restrictions!
