Guangming Lake Greenway

The Guangming Lake Greenway offers residents a waterfront corridor that integrates ecological conservation, recreation, sports and science education.

The greenway connects Guangming Lake’s 6-square-kilometer water area with surrounding trails, including Dadingling Greenway and Guangming Forest Park. It also features a 42-kilometer marathon route, a 25-kilometer hiking trail system, and a 20-kilometer cycling network.

Key landmarks include an 865-meter lake-viewing bridge, inspired by traditional Chinese aesthetics, offering panoramic views of the lake and sunset. A water culture exhibition hall shaped like a water droplet combines public education with cycling services. Additional sites include a sunset theater, eco-farm zones, a children’s water cycle science park, and ecological purification displays.

The corridor is lined with seasonal pink flowering trees and connects directly to Guangming Fun Farm, where farmland, flower fields and modern research facilities create a blend of urban innovation and rural scenery.

The greenway also connects to Jingkou Ancient Village, where visitors can explore historical kilns and Lingnan architecture. The cycling route links the Guangming Science City exhibition center and the Shenzhen campus of Sun Yat-sen University, promoting “cycling+” tourism.

The new attraction is open year-round without reservations and equipped with public rest areas, drinking water stations and barrier-free pathways.
