    Wonderful place to visit, in the middle of a large city.
    Unfortunately we went on a nice weather day during Chinese New Year 2019, and it was thronged with crowds

    The Gate itself is amazingly well maintained, and kept clean. However, I could not understand the purpose of this gate, as the river is immediately in front of it, so I assume, it was placed strategically not to allow continuous hordes to form a frontal attack. I would, certainly, send my compliments to the authorities for having kept it so meticulously. The gate itself is just a piece of history, which we can finish in about half an hour. I noticed extremely well laid out landscape lighting, so I assume it would be a sight to behold in the night.

    This place has three main areas of visit, the Hong Hua (Red Flower) lake is part of the (much bigger) West Lake of GuangDong's HuiZhou. Not to be confused with the West Lake of ZheJiang's HangZhou. The walking path around the Hong Hua lake is well maintained, and has many "breaks" in the shapes of pavilions, which are like viewing points. A tourist can take a breather break at these pavilions. Also, there are a couple of places where you can hire, either a paddle boat, or an electric boat to cruise around the lake. I found half an hour to be enough. You could also take a boat "bus", which seats about 18 passengers, if you don't want the personal boats.

    On the other end, there's the West Lake, which is more for bicycling with an 18 kilometres circular track around the major part of the lake.

    There also is another attraction for climbing. That's the GaoBang Hill. I did the hill late evening and was rewarded by a very well lit up pavilion at the peak. Also a good view of the city of HuiZhou.

    I must appreciate that the authorities have put in the extra efforts to keep the area very clean, especially during the National Day week-long vacation, when the inflow of tourists is HUGE.

    If you really want to do justice to visiting this attraction, make sure you have a comfortable pair of shoes.

    Subtropical climate in this area. The temperature is fairly constant with daily highs in the 21C to 23C range throughout the year. Nice coastal beach, but the water is too chilly for me.

    Some friends and I visited Daya bay recently and I was very impressed with the area. There is a brand new hotel and beach resort, with restaurants and what appears to be continuing development with shopping and residential structures under construction. The town of Daya is a short drive away and the bay at that area is home to much more commercial traffic. The resort area is approximately a 20 minute drive from the town proper.

    We walked in the mountain area, enjoying the scenic views and the flow of life and nature. Walking paths are nice and there are nice places from which to enjoy the wonderful views.

    Magnificent paradise of flowers seemingly everywhere, on the ground, on trees, and on water. Many beautiful matching colours created by nature.

    Lots of activities at this nice beach. The April water is a little chilly for most, but it is nice and clear. Great beach for families with young children. Tasty freshly caught seafood offered by local restaurants.

    The Jiuqu Bridge, or the nine-curved bridge, is a major attraction at Huizhou's popular West Lake. A stroll around is the ultimate Huizhou experience for many visitors.

    This was the city center of Huizhou. Restored to its former grandeur, Shuidong Street is now the hip tourist area of the Guangdong city. The former stately buildings are now converted to trendy restaurants and food stalls. There is also a lively night market after sunset.

    This is the central shopping mall of Huizhou, a mid-sized Guangdong city nicknamed "the backyard of Shenzhen." Although incomparable to large malls in nearby megacities, it is a great option to understand the local life. The rooftop offers a panorama of downtown Huizhou.
