Urban Wilderness
Wuguishan (五桂山) in Zhongshan is a huge forested area surrounding several reservoirs, of which the largest is the picturesque Changjiang Reservoir.
The forest is only a short distance from Zhongshan's urban centre and is easily accessible from several places. There are numerous hiking trails criss-crossing the park, but the most popular walk from the north side is to Lion's Head Mountain (狮头山), which offers the best view of the Changjiang Reservoir, as well as Zhongshan's east district. It's not a long walk (it should take most people 30-45 minutes) but it is steep and rough in places, so wear sturdy footwear and bring enough water.
Make sure to carry out your trash and don't pollute the reservoir!
Although Wuguishan is surrounded by dense urbanisation, it feels like a genuine wilderness. Highly recommended for anyone in the area who needs a nature break.

Zhongshan, surprisingly hides such a healing secret place!
In the mountains and fields, often unaware of the passage of time, torrential rains alternate with sunny days
Streams in the forest, gentle yet majestic
The sound of Yang Qing's Guanshan echoes in my ears, holding Wuyi Mountain's Dahongpao in my hand
Occasionally, bluefish leap in the lake before my eyes
The scenes in my mind are of Zermatt at the foot of the Alps during my trip to Switzerland, like the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming, serene, peaceful, pastoral, a paradise for recluses!!!
This is a private campsite, with fish ponds, natural swimming pools, camping, fishing, picnicking, team building, parent-child activities, barbecues, everything outdoor enthusiasts love, wedding photography, and Western-style weddings can be held here!! So amazing!!!

Shitou Shan|The Best View of reservoir
Shitou Shan of 305m height, locates at the north of Wuguishan（五桂山）, Zhongshan City. It's very close to Zhongshan downtown, easily reach. It's not difficult to hike at all, begins with around 200 m paved stairs, then will get into the dirt path, which is very clear and lovely. After about 1 hour walk, we will arrive the mountai top to enjoy the best and beautiful view of Changjiang Resevoir. Many locals hike there at weekends.
