weekend – huizhou beach august 24-25

Quayside lanes too hot in the noonday sun, the only sounds are a sizzling wok behind a speckless doorway. On this new trip from China Tea Leaves, we’ll skip town to find brilliant-colored villages and an easy-going beach town in our neighbor Huizhou.

To the east of Shenzhen, a taste of Minnan culture seeps in the the local culture from nearby Fujian province. Here temples celebrate stories unique to this region, under sweeping cornices decorated in the distinctive multi-colored mosaic tiles you find in Xiamen and Fuzhou. Lanes are further spotted with clan houses and temples in crimson and turquoise green; everyone’s door is swept neat as a pin and festooned in orange and red couplets.

After our village exploration, we’ll head to one of Huizhou’s best coasts on Xunliao Bay, with powdery fine sand, then enjoy some local Hakka and barbecue dishes near our bayside hotel. On the second day, we’ll visit another pristine corner of this peninsula of Huizhou before heading back to Shenzhen. Clear waters and skies never seemed so close to Shenzhen before.

This may become your go-to escape for a holiday in the sun.

You may also join us for day one only of the trip, still enjoy the villages, beach, and dinner, then head back to Shenzhen on Saturday evening.
