Haizhu Lake

#springitinerary Haizhu Lake Park is straight-up one of the best spots in Guangzhou if you’re just looking to chill and reset. It’s super spacious, clean, and full of pretty lake views, swaying trees, and wide paths that are perfect for aimless wandering. You can stroll, bike, or just sit by the water and vibe, it’s that kind of park. Locals are out here doing tai chi, flying kites, or just hanging with their fam, so the energy is super laid-back and peaceful. The lake itself is really pretty, especially during sunset when everything turns golden and Instagram-worthy. It’s not super touristy either, which makes it feel more real and relaxed. There’s also a cool mix of nature and little bridges and pavilions for that extra scenic touch. If you're around Haizhu and need a nature break without leaving the city, this park is the move. Bring snacks, stay awhile.
