A lovely ancient village in Shenzhen

If you're planning a trip to Shenzhen and want to experience a cultural attraction not too far from the city center, we highly recommend this place. Place Name: Gankeng Hakka Ancient Town <<< This ancient Hakka village still preserves its traditional architecture. According to historical records, this village has existed for over 350 years, dating back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties. 🍜🍲🍦🍛 There are both traditional and international restaurants, as well as dessert shops, so you won't have trouble finding something to eat. 🚇 Getting there: Take the subway to Gankeng Station, Exit B, and walk for about 10 minutes. Alternatively, you can also take a bus. 🚗 These small buses are similar to the ones we have in Thailand. You'll see an old man driving by and asking questions. We took the subway back. We paid with WeChat or Alipay. #TravelChina #Shenzhen #WhereToTravelShenzhen #AroundNotAlone

Gankeng Hakka Town

Step into timeless charm at Gankeng Hakka Town, where tradition meets picture-perfect scenery! 🏮🌳 Soak up those old town vibes as you wander ancient courtyards, tree-lined paths, and heritage lanes—all tucked away from Shenzhen’s city rush. Embark on your stroll starting at the stone gateways, letting winding paths lead you past classic tiled Hakka houses and serene lotus ponds. Don’t miss that Insta-worthy tree hung with red blessing ribbons—a splash of color and culture in the midst of tranquil greenery (cloudy days add a moody magic! 🌧️). Snap close-ups of intricate Chinese architecture and lotus blooms for your photo archive. Take time to pause by the riverside pavilions, where reflections add depth to every shot. Must-do: Sample fresh Hakka snacks at local stalls and step into historic buildings for a glimpse of rural craft and life. If it’s rainy, be sure to carry a light raincoat or umbrella—the open courtyards get slick, but watching mist linger over rooflines feels straight out of an old movie. Early visits (before 10 AM) guarantee fewer crowds and quieter photo opportunities, especially in hidden corners. Practical tip: Gankeng Hakka Town is open all day, year-round—perfect for spontaneous detours! Some courtyards may be slippery when wet; comfy, sturdy shoes are a must. Respect local customs, especially when photographing blessing ribbons or residences. #Shenzhen #GankengHakkaTown #OldTownVibes #ChineseArchitecture #TravelChina #happyhalloween
