The 10 Best Things to Do in Zhaoqing, China

August 14, 2017 Leida Jutras

Zhaoqing, formerly romanized as Shiuhing, is a prefecture-level city in Guangdong Province, China. During the 2010 census, its population was 3,918,467, with 1,232,462 living in the urbanized areas of Duanzhou District and Gaoyao County. The prefectural seat—excluding Seven Star Crags—is fairly flat, but thickly forested mountains lie just outside its limits. Numerous rice paddies and aquaculture ponds are found on the outskirts of the city. Sihui and the southern districts of the prefecture are considered part of the Pearl River Delta.

Dinghu Mountain Resort

Reviewed By Steve522014 - Llantilio Crossenny, United Kingdom

This was the first Chinese nature reserve and is very popular, especially during Bank Holidays. It has some excellent views and the temple is worth seeing. The waterfall is certainly worth a visit, although difficult to appreciate it at it's best when the park is busy. The road structure is good and there is sufficient local transportation to take you to the mountain top. Unfortunately from my perspective, there is too much concrete and structure, it is quite different from what I would expect in the UK, where you would probably have a large mansion/property with the remaining area predominantly green.

Seven Star Crags (Qixing Yan)

Dominated by spectacular limestone peaks, this is a large lake area with lots of caves and underground rivers.

Reviewed By chanykin - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

This is my second visit to this scenic park...after a sojourn of five years. Was impressed by the good standard of upkeep and maintenance.... The beauty of the limestone mountain peaks reflected on the tranquil lakes still lingers in my mind. Glad also to be able to feed the school of koi fishes at the tea house pond. Left refreshed and inspired after this recent visit.

Reviewed By A TripAdvisor China Member

整个公园就像一个巨大的氧吧,空气那叫一个新鲜啊,各种植物。石头上都长满了茂密的植物,顺着它铺好的路一直往里走,会看见小溪啥的,清澈见底,忍不住想脱了鞋去里面玩玩水,好舒服。来这种地方真是让人心旷神怡啊。

对于免门票的风景--西江,在肇庆流域是最长的,连接到广西贺江,其实很有欣赏价值,特别是在烟雨、大雾时分,西江此景的感觉,真不逊色桂林漓江。

Dinghu Lake

Reviewed By PAC6017 - Perth, Australia

Went on a bright sunny day, my travelling companion visited the island by the traditional hand rowed boat to the island- very calming tree lined facility - in summer the butterfly facility would be an added attraction.
The lake forms part of the Dinghu Mountain Resort - also see that review

Ancient City Wall of Zhaoqing

Reviewed By PAC6017 - Perth, Australia

This wall dates from the Song Dynasty, it is safe to climb and gives an idea of how the city could be defended.
Locals live within the walls and on top on the city side. On the other side of the road is the current city of Zhaoqing.
Worth an hour or so... there is no admission fee although you may be tempted by the street food sold by the vendors at top of the wall.

Hidden Dragon Groove

Reviewed By A TripAdvisor China Member

本来只是抱着一试的心态到藏龙沟的,来到之后感觉实在是不虚此行。低度开发,加上道路狭窄,使藏龙沟的原生态保持的非常好。度假村的布局也很别致,全木质建筑,能够很好的融入大自然。度假村住房价格不高,附带饭店,收费也很合理。可惜的是在那两天都在下雨,进沟的路封闭了,只能等下次找个晴天再来玩了。
