Shenzhen Tour of
Da Meisha and Xiao Meisha Scenic Area
|
|
Da Meisha and Xiao Meisha are two beaches
which form the coastal scenic area on the shore of Dapeng Bay in
Yantian District of Shenzhen City. This scenic area has been a
popular place where people have been happy since ancient times.
Nowadays guesthouses, hotels, villas and camping houses can be found
along the seashore offering tourists somewhere to relax and enjoy
the beautiful seaside scenery.
Let's first go to Xiao Meisha which has the notable
name of 'Oriental Hawaii'. Xiao Meisha Scenic Area is surrounded by
green mountains on three sides, with one side facing the sea. At the
edge of the sea the sandy beach is like a crescent set between the
blue sky and the vast ocean. This beach, resplendent with
multicolored umbrellas, stretches for 1,000 meters (about 0.6 miles)
and is noted for its clean bathing water. Out to sea yachts run
before the wind giving up white spray, while motorboats and
parachutes may also be seen. Laughter fills the air and when night
falls, the barbecue field attracts crowds lured by fragrance of the
food being prepared. The blue sky, blue water, white crested waves
and golden sands attract thousands upon thousands of people who come
here each year.
Da Meisha Scenic Area boasts Shenzhen City's longest
beach which is 1.8 kilometers in length (about 1.1 miles). The beach
is wide and the sand here is fine and soft while the clear seawater
is shining in the sunlight. 'Wave Surfing on the Da Meisha Beach' is
one of the 'Top Eight Scenic Spots' in
Shenzhen. Several groups of themed sculptures stand on the
beach, depicting the aspirations for a better life of the 'Drifting
Generation' (the young people who had unstable jobs and insecure
living conditions during 1940s-1980s). However, now the sculptures
have become a symbol of happiness in Da Meisha Scenic Area. This
beautiful seaside resort has golden sands and a blue sea that sets
off the white sails of the boats under a sky dotted with white
clouds. To the landward side there is the backdrop of green
mountains where the fragrance of the coconut trees and beautiful
flowers is carried by the sea breeze. For the adventurous who may be
seeking entertainment there is the 'Water Slide on Ropeway', a
challenging sport introduced from the occidental area. On the
mountain near Da Meisha beach we can find Cultural Relics dating
from about 3,000 years ago in the Shang Dynasty (16th - 11th century
BC), such as the bronze vessels, Meridian View Center, the window of
Shenzhen, is located on the 69th floor of the Diwang Mansion (Shun
Hing Square). With a height of about 384 meters (1,260 feet), this
building is the highest one in Shenzhen and can be divided into
three parts: the Office Area, the Shopping Area and the Business
Apartments.
