IF you have a bit of spare time before departing Shenzhen North Railway Station for your trip, you are encouraged to visit some parks near the station on a warm winter day rather than just sitting down to watch your mobile phone.

Four parks near the station, Shenzhen North Railway Station Central Park, Yixiu Park, Yulong Park and Baishilong Music Park, are impeccably green, clean and well maintained, offering public cultural and sports facilities to visitors. Apart from enjoying a relaxing walk, don’t forget to check out the spiral skywalk with a cloud-shaped reading lounge standing at the top in Shenzhen North Railway Station Central Park and listen to music played from speakers hidden in the foliage in Baishilong Music Park.

In recent years, newly built urban parks in Longhua District help connect dwellers with their environment. Connecting with nature in an urban environment allows city dwellers to understand their dependence on nature.(SD News)
