I have many good suggestions for going to Shenzhen. First of all, I set my destination at Huxian Botanical Garden, and another place is Phoenix Mountain, where I can burn incense and worship Buddha, which is a place that the elderly generally like!
There are many places suitable for the elderly in Shenzhen, such as Lianhuashan Park and Mangrove Park, Shenzhen Bay Waterfront plank road, etc. The significance of Lianhuashan Park is to pay tribute to Grandpa Deng. Shenzhen's proud achievements today are inseparable from the reform and opening up of the chief designer. Of course, you can also climb to the highest roofs in Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Standing at the top of Lianhua Mountain, Hong Kong has a panoramic view. There is no high-rise building blocking your view, which also has some meaning.
The significance of recommending mangrove park is to look at the sea first. The farthest place that uncles and aunts who came out of the countryside have reached in this life may only be the county or city to which they belong, not to mention the mountains and rivers. So many friends came to Shenzhen with their parents and wanted to climb mountains and see the sea there.
Secondly, you can watch Hong Kong separated by a bay at close range. A few years ago, the procedures for going to Hong Kong were complicated, but in the past two years, the procedures have become more and more simplified. However, the Hong Kong and Macao passes for the elderly in their hometown cost hundreds of dollars, so when they heard that they needed hundreds of dollars, they would say that they were spending money indiscriminately, and they backed out.
Many people in Shenzhen earn more than 7,000 yuan a month, so hundreds of oceans have a certain weight in their hearts. I remember when my parents and I asked for a permit, they said that it was enough to take a photo with Hong Kong as the background at the gate of the border checkpoint.
Third, the waterfront plank road in Shenzhen Bay is suitable for walking, which is much better than the winding park. Old people don't like being alone. They like busy places, chatting with people and watching new things. There are many young people walking, running, cycling, taking photos and doing activities in Shenzhen Bay anytime and anywhere. So they won't feel tired and the safety factor is high.
If you stay in Shenzhen for a while, it is recommended to go to splendid china and the Window of the World during the day. The original ticket price is 200 yuan. If you are in a hurry, you can buy a 10% discount group purchase ticket online one day in advance. Generally, you can't buy the group purchase ticket of the day, but you can only buy the original price ticket at the official ticket window at the entrance of the scenic spot. If you can buy 49.9, 69.9 and 79.9 daytime tickets for low-priced activities, you need to pay attention a few days in advance.
There are two parks in Shenzhen Jinxiu Chinese Folk Village: splendid china and Ethnic Culture Village, which were merged into one park in 2003, so one vote is available for both parks. Splendid china has collected 82 famous mountains and rivers in China, arranged according to their positions on the map of China and related scales. Chinese folk culture villages include village buildings of 27 ethnic minorities in China and folk performances held regularly, which represent the cultural characteristics, customs and habits of ethnic minorities in China.
To go to splendid china is to tell your parents that there are so many mountains and rivers in China, and what you see is only a condensed version of some famous scenic spots, nine Niu Yi hairs. Take time to see, play and experience you one by one. In splendid china, people aged 65-70 are allowed to enter the park at half price, and people aged 70 and above are given vouchers for free.
If splendid china is suitable for uncles and aunts from rural areas, then Window of the World is suitable for retired workers and intellectuals from county towns and other cities. They may have been to some memorable places in China. For most people in China, the outside world is always wonderful, so everyone wants to go out for a walk.
The Window of the World contains more than 65,438+000 world monuments and historical sites, which are also scaled according to relevant proportions. Taking my parents to the window of the world is to tell them about the historical changes of the world, the cultural characteristics of various countries, and China's position in the world as one of the four ancient civilizations. If it is far from the Grand Canyon in the United States and the Eiffel Tower in France, let's start with Angkor Wat in Cambodia and the Taj Mahal in India. Off-season travel tickets are very cheap.
If you can drive to dapeng ancient city, dapeng ancient city is the only national key cultural relics protection unit in Shenzhen. It took only 30 years for Shenzhen to start from a small fishing village and develop into a first-tier megacity in China, which is inseparable from its geographical location and past historical background.
You can't take the subway to see Nantou ancient city. At present, the subway takes the envelope line 1 to Daxin or Taoyuan, and it takes two or three stops to get there. Old people and children still have a little trouble walking after getting out of the subway. After the opening of the 12 line, they can go directly to the ancient city of Nantou.
The predecessor of Shenzhen is Baoan County, and the county seat is located in Nantou Ancient City. Theoretically, the application for national protection units in Nantou ancient city should be superior to Dapeng ancient city, but Nantou ancient city is located in a downtown area, which has developed rapidly and many buildings have been destroyed.
With or without parents, going to dapeng ancient city and Nantou Ancient City is to get to know the city better. Only by understanding this city can we better integrate into it.
It is worth mentioning that if you take the elderly and children, you can string together Nantou Ancient City, Holland Flower City and Zhongshan Park for a half-day tour or a one-day tour. Here we recommend the hand tour in Zhongshan Park. Sometimes it doesn't have to cost more than 200 yuan to go to Happy Valley, because there are some here, which are not expensive and crowded on weekends.
Uncle and aunt from rural areas can take them to Huxian Botanical Garden and Phoenix Mountain, because they can burn incense and worship Buddha.
At present, the phenomenon of rural elderly living alone is becoming more and more serious. Our parents' generation earned their living income and supported their families by selling physical strength in the countryside. After the age of 60, there will be some serious diseases of different degrees, often fatal, so there are fewer and fewer families with both parents over the age of 60.
In addition, just like the example of my 5 mu of land I shared with you, young people who can earn some money have gone to large and medium-sized cities, while some old people and children have stayed in the countryside, and some children have not stayed with their parents, at least for a short time. Therefore, parents turn their thoughts on their children into expectations and wishes, and whenever they have time, they run to the temple and the shrine with gods to pray and seek happiness.
Shenzhen people are lonely in this fast-paced city. In fact, they are really lonely, not their parents. No parents want their children to get better and better. As long as they have time, even if they take a bus for a day, they will go to some so-called effective temples to burn incense and worship Buddha for peace and progress.
Coincidentally, there are four temples in Shenzhen, which basically have no threshold, namely the Hongfa Temple in Hu Xian and the Yan Feng Ancient Temple in Fenghuang Mountain. Dapeng Dongshan Temple in the east is far from the urban area, so only Huxian Botanical Garden and Phoenix Mountain are recommended here. Eat early on the first and fifteenth day of every day.
Huxian Botanical Garden is open to the elderly over 60 years old and believers with conversion certificates free of charge. You can enter the park directly by swiping your ID card. In addition, for Shenzhen citizens, it is also free before 8 am and after 6 pm, which can coordinate time and people with less money. It is also great to enter the park during free time.
Special reminder: After entering the park, there is a paid bus directly to the entrance of Hongfa Temple, which is located in the northern Wu Tong mountain system with high terrain. It takes some time for an old man to walk. It is recommended to get on and off.
Compared with Hongfa Temple, Phoenix Mountain in the west of Shenzhen has no threshold and can reach the top platform in ten minutes. Unlike Hongfa Temple, which provides three incense sticks for free, Yan Feng Ancient Temple in Fenghuang Mountain needs to be provided by individuals or purchased by themselves. In addition, elderly people with good physical strength can walk behind the roof and overlook it, or go down for a walk at the foot of the mountain near Fenghuang Ancient Village.
Veteran cadres from other cities and counties can take them to Shenzhen Museum, Shenzhen Concert Hall and Garden Expo Park.
It is rare for Shenzhen to achieve such impressive achievements in the past 30 years of reform and opening up. Shenzhen Museum has a photo exhibition of Shenzhen's reform and opening up, and a commemorative record related to or related to this city. To understand a city or go to a new city, I will go to two places first: the first is the local university, where I can have a look at the spiritual outlook of the young people in this city; The second is to go to historical sites or museums to understand the changes in the city.
Shenzhen Concert Hall is the highest level concert hall in Shenzhen. There are often some top domestic musicians and world musicians performing here, and a few hundred dollars can have a wonderful music feast. If economic conditions do not allow, you can also pay attention to the "Music Afternoon Tea" in Shenzhen Concert Hall on Saturday and the public welfare concert on Sunday, which are equally wonderful. Sometimes, the elderly also need to cultivate their sentiments.
The full name of the Garden Expo Park is "Shenzhen International Garden and Flower Expo Park", which can be described as an ocean of flowers. Couples are very suitable to go to these places, not only young people can go, but also old people can find the feeling of first love when they are young. My father took pictures of my mother, my mother took pictures of my father, and the two of them asked the young people around them to take pictures. What a warm picture.
Wutongshan and the eastern waterfront plank road.
Wu Tongshan relies on physical strength. Most of them will not reach the top, and they will not have to reach the top like young people. In fact, the ridge line from the vast slope to Wu Tong can also give a bird's eye view of Shenzhen. Go up Panshan Highway, and then get off Panshan Highway. People should not be too tired, after all, they don't recover as fast as young people.
The waterfront plank road in the east of Shenzhen is known as the longest waterfront plank road in the world. In fact, this is the same as the truth of Wu Tongshan shared above. There is no need to walk from beginning to end without pulling. I think it is enough to choose the best part, from Yantian Food Street to xiaomeisha. It is believed that spectacular wind and waves and listening to the sound of the sea can also offset the physical fatigue caused by uphill and downhill in some sections.
Also, parents should be cautious when taking them to other coastal areas in the east. Many parents may not like it, such as going to Tung Chung, Xiyong, Jiaochangwei and Yangmeikeng Valley Valley. Young people live in homestays, ride bicycles, go fishing in the sea, swim in the sun, have a barbecue or farmhouse, have a big flight, cross the coastline, and watch the sunrise in these places, which is very pleasant. Yes, young people like to do this, but not old people.
Recommend two street views. Shenzhen went to Luohu 20 years ago. Wang Di Tower, the tallest building in Shenzhen, and its surroundings are recommended here, including Wang Di Tower, Shenzhen Grand Theatre, Jingji 100, Portrait, Litchi Park, etc. If sightseeing is not enough, you can go around the international trade center, which is very memorable.
What kind of experience will it be to take photos on the Shennan Road overpass in Dongmen section? Don't go into the east gate. It's too noisy. Old people don't like it.
Seeing Futian 10 years ago, it is recommended to recommend the Civic Center and its surrounding areas, including Lianhuashan Park, Shenzhen Central Book City, Shenzhen Library, Shenzhen Concert Hall and Shenzhen Civic Center. The night scene is worth taking pictures.
Finally, many foreign friends travel to Shenzhen through travel agencies and are basically taken to the same place, which is Zhongying Street. I usually don't recommend this place to everyone when it was charged before, but now it's free. If you haven't been there, it's still worth a visit. Don't buy anything Free reservation, a few minutes' walk, convenient transportation.
Parents participate in our growth. When we grow up, we should participate in the aging of our parents.
