Huizhou

A coastal city in eastern Guangdong with Lingnan heritage, popular for West Lake, Mount Luofu and the beaches of Xunliao Bay and Double Moon Bay.

Huizhou lies in southeastern Guangdong at the northeastern edge of the Pearl River Delta, next to Shenzhen and Dongguan. Huizhou West Lake has deep ties to the poet Su Dongpo and is the city's calling card. Mount Luofu in Boluo County is a famous Taoist mountain. In Huidong, the clear waters of Xunliao Bay and Double Moon Bay make them popular seaside resorts, and the viewing platform at Double Moon Bay overlooks the two connected bays. Summer is ideal for playing in the sea, while autumn and winter suit hiking and lake strolls. Reach the city by high-speed rail, or fly into Huizhou Pingtan Airport.
