Thought I Was in Europe: Shazikou Travel Notes

Location Shazikou is located in Laoshan District. You can take Metro Line 4 to get there. The transportation is very convenient. There is a market nearby, which is full of life. I was a little confused when I came out of the subway and entered the market, hahaha. Scenery This is actually a small fishing village. Here you can see fishermen going out to sea. If you walk along the road by the sea, you will see many fishing boats. As someone who has always lived inland, I learned something new. I didn't know that fishing boats also have numbers, just like car license plates. You must come when the weather is good. It is very beautiful, like a place in a Hayao Miyazaki manga. I also met some foreign friends who were playing drums and singing. It was really pleasant. An old man fishing told us that the best time to come is during the National Day holiday, when it is the season to eat seafood. There will be many seafood vendors on the roadside, and the seafood is both plump and cheap. Location: It is very convenient to take a taxi or drive. There is a parking lot nearby, and the transportation is convenient! Scenery: Shazikou is absolutely beautiful on a sunny day. You can see Italian-style buildings, and the water and sky are very blue. Only blue, only blue, so beautiful! We arrived at around 1 pm, and the weather was very nice. The scenery was even more beautiful at around 4 or 5 pm. If you go at this time, be sure to bring warm clothes, as it is still quite cold by the sea at night, and the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large. The night view is also very beautiful! It is also a great place to watch the sunrise! Recommended activities: You can have a barbecue, team building, or camping here. You can set up a tent, fly a kite by the beach, play beach volleyball, sandbags, etc. It is a great place for family and friends gatherings and various team building activities! You can also take your children to pick up shells! Bring a shovel and a small bucket. It is very fun! You can really pick up a lot of clams! It is great to play with friends and family in the sea breeze!
