A must-visit in Guangming District, Shenzhen! A 4.3 km Rainbow Boardwalk Walking Guide

What?! Just finished exploring the suspension bridge, exploration bridge, and floating bridge on the Dadiling Greenway, and before my legs even got sore, my friend dragged me to Hongqiao Park — these two spots in Guangming District, Shenzhen are the ultimate "hiking couple"! The oxygen level is perfect, not to mention the 📸 photo opportunities are 200%! Easily complete the Hongqiao check-in in 3 hours, completely free with no entrance fee🙌 Hurry and save this walking guide～

📍Address: Guangming Avenue, Guangming Subdistrict, Guangming District, Shenzhen | 🚇 Line 6, Phoenix City Station Exit A, 10-minute walk
🕒 Opening Hours: 06:30-18:30 | 💰 Admission: Free

🔥 Highly recommended: The 4.3 km red steel giant dragon is the soul of the place! As soon as you exit Phoenix City Metro Station, you can see the brick-red boardwalk from afar, perfectly weaving through the lush green trees👏 This spot is even more stroller-friendly than Dadiling: pushing a stroller is effortless, canvas shoes won’t rub your feet, and the entire route is barrier-free! Perfect for aunties with kids, couples on dates, and friends taking photos～

📸 Three main check-in areas with detailed routes:

【Entrance Area】A must-shoot!!
👉 The steps at the visitor center are amazing! Sitting there frames the red boardwalk + forest like a natural picture frame
⚠️ Tip: Shoot around 3 PM when the sunlight slants for flawless, glowing skin!
Two options:
1️⃣ Fast track: Take the stairs directly
2️⃣ For photo lovers: Take the spiral walkway! The panoramic shot inside the red circle will blow up your social feed!

【Bihu Area】My favorite!!
💦 Surrounded 360° by Biyan Reservoir, the breeze carries the fresh scent of grass and trees～
✔️ Must-check-in spots:
- Top floor of the panoramic tower for an overhead view of the red boardwalk winding like a ribbon!
- Small platform under the tower’s tip, easily capture the tower peak + water surface + portrait in one shot!

【Forest Area】Wild photo hotspot!!
🌲 Don’t miss the "dirt path" option at the end of the boardwalk! Soft soil + sunlight filtering through tree gaps is stunning!
🐿️ Star-chasing tip: High chance of spotting squirrels in the morning!
🍃 Outfit suggestion: Light colors look amazing here for photos～
