10 Water & Amusement Parks in Guangdong That You Shouldn't Miss
Guangdong (Chinese: 广东) is a province in South China, located on the South China Sea coast. Traditionally romanised as Kwangtung, Guangdong surpassed Henan and Sichuan to become the most populous province in China in January 2005, registering 79.1 million permanent residents and 31 million migrants who lived in the province for at least six months of the year; the total population was 104,303,132 in the 2010 census, accounting for 7.79 percent of Mainland China's population. This also makes it the most populous first-level administrative subdivision of any country outside the former British Raj, as its population is surpassed only by those of the Pakistani province of Punjab and the Indian states of Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh. The provincial capital Guangzhou and economic hub Shenzhen are among the most populous and important cities in China. The population increase since the census has been modest, the province at 2015 had 108,500,000 people.

Considering I just came from Shanghai Disneyland, this theme park is bliss. Fast rides requires a minimum height of 1.4m, and thus there are no children in many queues. Queue time was on average 5-20 minutes tops, skip the express pass. If you are a family with small kids, there are numerous interesting kid rides and all age appropriate shows (magic/action/etc) throughout the day. Food carts options are limited and bland, but not too pricey. There are more than 3 high speed coasters, and a lot of 360 spin rides. Particularly enjoyed the spinning U-track ride and spinning frisbee ride. If you are a coaster enthusiast, the rides will be meh at best. But not having to queue hours however, means you can spam your favourite rides. Consider getting the Theme Park + Circus combo at 530/640 ish yuan, depending on non-peak/peak days. Circus is amazing. You can spend around 5 hours in the park and clear most rides/ shows. I came at 1 and managed to watch all shows and all major rides just in time. The park closes at 6pm, so plan your time well. Above average rides and below average queuing times makes this a better than average theme park. Also, there are many cute girls in the park, just putting it out there.

This is one of the four most famous gardens in Guangdong. I found everything I could expect from a traditional Chinese garden here. I think it was the early autumn when I visited, and most plants were green. It is not hard to imagine how beautiful the garden will be when most of the flowers bloom in Spring or Summer. I visited on a weekday, so there were some people, not a big crowd. It is relaxing and peaceful. Besides, there are huge kois in the pond, and I guess there are kois all along, so there is a Hui Su (灰塑) of kois on the wall. Vivid and catching. I know Chinese and had mobile data available, so I followed the garden's WeChat account and got some sort of “guided tour” or some more introduction about the architectures and so on. Entrance fee is RMB15. If you are 65 years old or above, you pay RMB7 only (remember to bring some document).

We were quite surprised how big this place is...and how many sea animals it has!! Penguins, whale sharks, polar bears, wolves, seals, etc. The seal show was just ok but the dolphin show is a must see!! The rides are quite mixed for young and older kids....although ur child should at least be 1m high for him/her to be able to ride most of the rides... There are a lot of restaurants to choose from inside with a lot of food selection. Last thing, wait for the outdoor finale fireworks show at night...ITS A MUST SEE. You can also get english maps at their customer service area.... They have a rental stroller service...toilets are clean and have international toilet bowls.. All in all, kids will definitely enjoy there...we got the 2 day ticket to be able to finish everything...we suggest that!

Nice park with loads of attractions for kids. Entrance is free of charge and you can choose to pay for each ride separately, around 40-50RMB. They also offer package deals 299RMB for family OF 3 where you can ride each attraction once. Enough places to eat and overall great vibe.

This worthwhile attraction is part of Overseas Chinese Village (better known as OCT) and showcases the myriad minority ethnic cultures that make this vast country much less homogenous than imagined. It also serves as a great introduction to the history and traditions of China.

I loved the place (more than any other places in Shenzhen). I have focused on the larger sub-park, on left side, about Chinese landscapes and historic architectures : it is really great: a few hundred sites, each like 100 m2, showing a known temple, palace, mountain, gorge, walls (...), etc .. Each site is fairly well designed, with concrete (no plastic), correct painting, etc, including a few water flows to mimic rivers or cascades. It was great to guide the kids, teach them and let them discover all the variety of China. The funny part is that these sites are located, inside the park, on a kind of huge Chinese map (upside-down, though, you’ll see). It was by far my best experience in Shenzhen (more than Windows of World as second choice) or others. Note that I think there aren’t any playing items here (no roller coaster, etc). Written English information (dates, location, short historic background). Inside the park, there is one smaller half, on the right side, about pure Chinese folk items (presumably dances, houses, clothing, etc): it is not my priority (it would be too Chinese to let me appreciate it as it should): I have not been there and I cannot judge.
