In addition to water parks, Shenzhen Toupi Park is absolutely another best place which can play "water" in summer.
Located at the foot of Tiantou Mountain in Pingshan District, Toupi Park is nestled in a mountain valley with a lot of plants, lawns, streams and forests, creating a vibrant and colorful ecological landscape. Natural streams flow down the mountain create an ideal water playground for children.
In addition to water play, there are many other facilities here. Let's check out this wonderful new park now.
Toupi Park: Four water play areas for fishing and shrimp catching
Take the Shenzhen Metro Line 16 to Tianxin Station, exit A, walk about 600 meters along Jintian Road, and you will find the Toupi Park, which is newly opened in May of this year.
This new park, being managed by the Pingshan District Water Affairs Bureau in Shenzhen, is a "water" park in some sense. There are four major water play areas in the park, each of which are well-designed.
Toupi Park is built in the mountain valley, where streams from the mountain are flowing through along and down to the whole park.
The designers then used pebbles to build staircases, layering the water to create a beautiful water play areas. When viewing from the top, you will see tiers of pebbles outline the natural beauty of the wilderness, making you feel as if you are in the wonderland.
In addition to playing in the water, children can catch small fish and shrimp in the water with nets, enjoying a day just like in the rural area.
Toupi Park Wilderness Playground: Three layers of pebble beach are eye-catching
Beside the water areas, there are also an outdoor playground with a lot of rural climbing nets, balance beams and swings. There, children can experience playing just like if they are in the natural area.
On the lakeside of the park, there is an eye-catching three-tier rock beach. The big white stones as the first layer, little grey stones as the second, and the fine sands as the third layers to create a fantastic rock and sand beach area.
It is really soothing when stepping on them. This is also a natural playground for kids too.
Camping under the canopy: Walking on the suspending walkway for sunset view
You can also set up a tent for picnic or even camping by the stream. It would be a wonderful camping experience for sure!
