2026 Conghua District Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in July)

Friends in Shenzhen, stop worrying about where to go this weekend! Right in Conghua, Guangzhou, lies the largest cherry blossom kingdom in Guangdong, now in full bloom! This itinerary packs a light hike through a bamboo sea, authentic mountain-style bamboo tube rice, and a breathtaking sea of tens of thousands of cherry blossoms all in one day round trip—no need to drive yourself. This is what spring should feel like! 🌸 ✨ Why is this itinerary the ultimate spring experience? 1. Compound experience, never boring: In one day, enjoy the triple joy of “hiking and breathing fresh air + delicious food comfort + flower viewing and photography,” fulfilling yet not tiring. 2. Bloom season limited, miss it and wait a year: Thousands of acres and dozens of cherry blossom varieties are blooming at Tianshi Cherry Blossom Amusement Park, creating a true “pink ocean” with a stunning visual impact. 🚌 One-day essential itinerary (easy to follow) · 07:30-08:30 Depart by car. · 10:30 Arrive in Conghua and start the 【Xingxi Line light hike】 (about 5 km). Walk through tens of thousands of acres of bamboo forest, with babbling streams along the way. The difficulty is very low, perfect for walking and taking photos, an immersive “lung cleanse.” · 12:30 Enjoy authentic 【bamboo tube rice】 and mountain farmhouse dishes at a rural farmhouse along the hike. The rice carries a bamboo fragrance, and the chicken is tender—a taste you can’t find in the city! · 14:30 Head to cherry blossom viewing. · 15:30 Arrive at 【Tianshi Cherry Blossom Amusement Park】. Hundreds of acres of cherry blossoms make a stunning appearance! Varieties like Diaochan, Xiao Qiao, and China Red bloom in succession. Walking into the park feels like falling into pink clouds, and when the wind blows, it’s a romantic cherry blossom rain. · 18:00 Return with your phone full of beautiful photos and wonderful memories. · Around 20:30 Arrive back in Shenzhen city, ending a perfect day. 📸 Three core highlights for deep enjoyment 1. Xingxi Line Bamboo Forest Hike (Beginner-friendly) · Features: Known as one of “Guangzhou’s most beautiful hiking routes,” the entire route is gentle, combining stone slabs and dirt paths, accompanied by streams and bamboo forests, with no pressure. · Outfit: Breathable sportswear and must-wear non-slip comfortable sports shoes. · Photography: Great shots by bamboo forest light and shadow, rustic small bridges, and clear streams. 2. Tianshi Cherry Blossom Amusement Park (Spring’s star) · Scale: Over 1,000 acres with tens of thousands of cherry trees, one of Guangdong’s largest cherry blossom viewing spots. · Bloom season: Late February to early April each year, with different varieties blooming in sequence. Now is the best viewing period. · Activities: ◦ Must-shoot scenes: Walking under cherry blossom tunnels, climbing observation decks overlooking the sea of flowers, sitting on picnic mats on the lawn with flowers as the backdrop. ◦ Atmosphere boost: Bring a picnic mat to rest under the cherry trees and experience the romance of being surrounded by petals. 3. Authentic Bamboo Tube Rice (Taste climax) • Experience: At a farmhouse midway through the hike, rice baked in fresh bamboo tubes mixed with sausage, mushrooms, and other ingredients emits a unique fragrance— the best reward after exertion. 📋 Essential pre-trip tips 1. Dress guide: Use “onion-style layering,” with moisture-wicking inner layers and windproof outer layers. Be sure to wear old but comfortable sports shoes. Bring a spare T-shirt to change after hiking. 2. Must-have items: ◦ Electronics: Power bank (photos drain battery fast), camera. ◦ Protection: Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses (strong UV in spring). ◦ Others: Small amount of cash (some farmhouses may have poor signal), personal trash bag, personal medicine, and a happy mood. 3. Optional to bring: Picnic mat, some snacks, photo props (like straw hats, books, etc.). 💡 FAQ · Q: I have poor stamina, can I finish the hike? · A: The Xingxi Line is a classic beginner route, 5 km of gentle paths. Walking with breaks for photos, most people can easily complete it. · Q: Besides cherry blossoms, what else is there to see? · A: The park usually also has a dinosaur playground, a small train, and other facilities suitable for families with children. But the star of spring is definitely the cherry blossoms. The bloom season is fleeting. The most beautiful spring and the nearest “pink ocean” are just 1.5 hours away. Quickly gather your friends, save this guide, and head to this springtime exclusive romance together!

#springsummer2024 One of the highlights of summer is watching the lotus flowers. The whole field of lotus flowers in full bloom is so beautiful. There is no need to go far away, there is a refreshing lotus garden in Conghua, about two hours away from Shenzhen🪷 The weather was very good over the weekend, and God was very kind. All the photos we took turned out great. However, if you want to see the lotus flowers in full bloom, you may have to wait until the end of July. If you want to eat lotus roots and lotus seeds, you will have to wait a while. But it's better to choose a good time, you can come and take a walk when you have time, it's highly recommended❤️ 🎯 Dongcheng Lotus Garden No. 347, Congzhang 1st Road, Conghua District, Guangzhou #LotusBlossom #SummerTravelOfficial #WhereToGoInSummer #SummerLimited #GoodPlacesToViewFlowers #OutdoorActivities

Maybe it's because it's almost the end of the year and work is really busy. I really want to escape to the mountains and forests to be isolated from the world and have a good rest. After complaining to my sister, he actually booked the Glass House B&B in Conghua, Guangzhou. He thought I would like it and wanted to bring me here to relax. Straight men can also be warm sometimes, haha~ The B&B consists of an extra-large wild luxury villa and three independent glass houses, with a very literary and fresh style. What is it like to live in a glass house? It was a pity that I didn't book the glass house this time, but when I arrived at the villa, I was pleasantly surprised. The room I stayed in was super big! The balcony was super spacious!! The scenery was also very pleasing to the eye. The three walls of the room are large floor-to-ceiling glass windows. My boyfriend even said he wanted to take a shower facing the mountains (too poisonous), but after he teased me like this, I felt really good, haha. Some rooms also have massage chairs that cost NT$30,000 to NT$40,000 each! It turns out that the owner of the B&B planned to build it for himself and his friends to live in, so he was willing to spend all the supplies haha. The massage chair is really super comfortable~ The B&B is also a huge "zoo"! I saw about 7 or 8 kittens, they were so well behaved and they even approached me actively. There are also many fish tanks, with many small goldfish in them. I just don’t know if the kittens will steal some of them, haha. Practical tips: 1. The B&B is really cozy. It's a good place to bring your kids or your own "little fur kids" here on weekends. 2. There is a KTV room on the first floor of the B&B. You can use it as soon as you check in. You can also have a barbecue in the evening. Bring your friends over to play next time~ B&B:Conghua Glass House Address: Near Phoenix Reservoir, Conghua, Guangzhou

On our way to see the Qianlonggou Great Falls, you got two options. Go.straight to the top of the mountain to see the waterfalls right away, Or, exercise your legs as you hike up through the bamboo forest. We opted to do the second choice. So we hike up! a short 30mins to 40mins hike through the bamboo forest and you will be amazed with the scenery. The bamboo trees are gorgeous! a good backdrop for selfies and you bet, very instagrammable! So if you are a nature lover kind of a person, you.might as well check this place out. You can find the Bamboo Forest in Liangkou town, Conghua district, in Guangzhou city. #explorechina #wheninguangzhou #gooutside #grouptravel

So me and my girlfriends decided to go out today to try out kayaking in Conghua district, Guangzhou. This area is the other side of the busy Guangzhou. This is all nature. Green facade. Lush mountains. And inviting water to try out the water activities on the venue. This is a good way to spend your Sunday. The four of us truly enjoyed todays activities. We had a two hours car ride from Shenzhen to Conghua in Guangzhou city. #grouptravel

Address - Conghua district, Guangzhou. Avg. Price per Person - 60+ RMB They can also organize birthday parties 🥳 Food menu is not rich. Just some chicken wings, fries, pasta, pizza, stack, cakes and drinks (non alcoholic). Seems like that’s already a lot, but just one or two from each. 🤣 There are also other great and bigger restaurants around Amore Mia. So don’t worry, you will find something to enjoy if you are foodie. 🍝 📸 @_ana_me_ on Instagram #foodie #guangzhou #guandong #conghua #travelinspiration #chinalife

Not far from the Millennium Falls, it is also located in Xitou Village of Conghua Liangkou Town. It has the reputation of "the most beautiful village in Guangdong Province", "Changshou Village" and "Beauty Village". It is a famous place for every holiday. Many tourists come to visit, eat a bowl of landscape tofu, pick the seasonal fruits, go to the stream to fight the water, let the body and mind return to the most simple country. Xitou Village is surrounded by mountains, rich in vegetation, and looks far away, just like the hideaway hidden in the oasis. From the inn to the Xitou Village, the scenery along the way is constantly, and more and more tourists are encountered. I am used to the quietness of the Qianggou, and I should feel the excitement of the village. 1. self-driving route Guangzhou: Beijing-Hong Kong-Macau Expressway (G4) (or Guangzhou Airport Expressway S41)-Daguang Expressway (G45)-105 National Road-Lixihe National Forest Park Rainbow Bridge (G105)-turn right Enter the X871-Left Front Turn-Xitou Village-Millennium Grand Falls Scenic Area. 2. bus route local city bus station - Conghua Bus Station - 11 Road (or 12 Road) bus route (Conghua Bus Station - Liangkou Market) - Transfer to Liangkou Community Micro-Circulation Bus Route (Good Mouth Market - Xitou Village) Terminal - Qianlonggou Waterfall Tourism Area

1 hour from Guangzhou, escape into the mountains of Conghua and let go of three years of tension, giving it all back to nature This place feels more like a fairy tale than you’d expect. Flowers are in full bloom, and summer colors fill your view 💦 First stop: toss your worries into the creek Slip on your sandals and step into Tago Creek. The water is so clear you can see the little fish between the stones. Water gun battles splash droplets that sparkle like stars in the sunlight. Don’t miss kayaking and paddleboarding—glide across the lake as the sun dances on the ripples. 📸 Second stop: take a graduation photo shoot with your best friends Dengke Bridge is a must-visit first stop. The bamboo carp bridge symbolizes leaping over the dragon gate. Stand on the bridge for a group photo and capture all the good luck of “making it ashore.” The flower sea at Huadai Bay is at its peak. Wear a floral dress and step in—the breeze will make you look like the best version of youth. 🌙 Third stop: mountain nights are more romantic than you imagine Head to Rixi Corridor at dusk to watch the sunset. The sun dyes the whole valley a warm orange. Don’t leave when it gets dark—the Huadian Starlight Night Market is just starting.

Open the door to a natural valley where the sounds of insects and flowing water make the perfect white noise. No need to rush or plan. Spend a day having fun with your best friends in the mountains and water, then talk under the stars until late. Happy graduation. Mountains and waters bring us together—we’ll meet again at higher places.

I went to Guangzhou for the vibes—killer skyline, crazy good dim sum, some shopping. Typical checklist feels, right? But honestly, I left absolutely obsessed with Conghua, a spot I'd legit never heard of before. It all happened because someone I met at a tea spot casually dropped, “If you’ve got two days, ditch the city and hit Conghua.” I almost ignored it…but trust me, it’s the best travel plot twist I’ve ever had. Just 1 hour up the road, the city’s chaos fades and suddenly you're surrounded by misty mountains, super fresh air, and that smell-of-trees vibe. That first night, sinking into the hot springs, it was like my usual rushed travel mode hit pause 😮💨. Here’s how Conghua totally levelled up my China trip ⬇️ Day 1|From Forest Feels to Hot Spring Bliss Morning · Shimen National Forest Park · Opening hours: 8:00–17:30 daily Walking into Shimen felt unreal—plush green everywhere, wild shade vibes. Locals call it “the oasis on the Tropic of Cancer” and, y’all, it’s so accurate. If you go in autumn, expect red maple magic; spring brings bloom explosions with azaleas everywhere. Hiking up to Tiantangding (the tallest peak in Guangzhou!) was a cardio moment, but the view is worth every step. This spot? 💚 Nature flex. Pro tip: Wear actual shoes, bring water, and expect sketchy phone signal. Kinda love how disconnected it feels! Afternoon · Hot Spring Town (Wenquan) · Address: Wenquan Town, Conghua District, Guangzhou Checked in and instantly living my hot spring fantasy—splurged on a villa with a private pool (no regrets!). Coconut water, red wine, ginger soak options… endless pools to drift through. I lounged hard, and like magic, someone kept bringing hot tea. If you’ve never tried a Chinese hot spring resort, this is your moment 😍. Evening · Hot Spring Market · Location: Next to Hot Spring Town, open pretty late! Night market time! The air was cool, I was warm and relaxed, and the snacks were wild. I pointed at random stuff and found new food obsessions. The best kind of “wait, what did I order?” adventure. Day 2|Golden River + Epic Lunch Morning · Liuxi River National Forest Park · Opening hours: 8:00–17:30 daily Go early for the views—seriously, sunrise on the reservoir is peak “cinematic wallpaper” vibes. You can do a boat ride or hike the Sanyatang Valley Trail. For photographers, this is your golden hour for drama. Midday · Xitou Village Lunch · Address: Xitou Village, Liangkou Town, Conghua District, Guangzhou This tiny village is a whole mood—super cute, flower blooms in spring, fruit picking in summer. I dropped into a family-run farmhouse for lunch and honestly just pointed at stuff. Free-range chicken, homegrown tofu and greens. It was suuuper simple but was legit the best meal I had in China. After wandering the little lanes, I rolled back to Guangzhou full and happy. Guangzhou Itinerary Cheat Sheet🧳 How many days? · Only want to soak & chill? 1 night = perfect. · Want forests + springs?

Hit up Conghua. It turned out to be the part of my trip I literally can’t stop talking about 🤍. #Conghua #Guangzhou #ChinaTravel #HiddenGem #HotSpringEscape #SlowTravel #OffTheBeatenPath #WeekendTrip #travelchina

📅Need a break from the urban intensity? Conghua is the perfect green lung. It’s where you go to swap high-speed city life for hot springs, misty mountains, and absolute stillness. Here is how I spent my refreshing getaway in this hidden sanctuary. 🍃✨ 📅 Itinerary Day 1: Arrive and head straight to the Hot Spring resorts. Spend the afternoon soaking in mineral-rich waters surrounded by forest views. Day 2: Hike through the Shimen National Forest Park. The landscapes are stunning, especially the colorful flowers and deep woodland trails. Day 3: Visit the Xihe Countryside to explore local orchards and farms. Grab some fresh fruit before heading back to the city. 🏨 Accommodation Stay at one of the upscale Hot Spring Resorts along the Liuxi River. They offer the best balance of luxury and nature. For something more intimate, look for "Boutique Homestays" in the mountain villages. 🍴 Food Recommendations Must-try: The famous Conghua "Litchi Wood" Roasted Chicken. The smoky flavor from the wood is unmatched. Also, don't miss the fresh seasonal vegetables and local river fish served in village restaurants. 📌 Tips Best time: Visit in autumn or winter to fully enjoy the hot springs. Transport: Renting a private car or taking a guided transfer is the easiest way to navigate between the dispersed nature parks. Booking: Book your resort in advance, especially on weekends, as they are very popular with locals looking for a quick escape. 🚗💨 #Conghua #GuangzhouEscape #HotSprings #NatureLovers #ChinaTravel #SlowTravel #WeekendGetaway #RuralChina #TravelGuide #ExploreConghua
