Not all places in Shenzhen are crowded with people during the National Day Holiday. Many cinemas are empty, especially in the morning, with only a handful of other people. It's nice to have the whole room to yourself. Now we're at an urban village looking for food 😁.

Did you know that Shenzhen has natural beaches? Due to its proximity to downtown and direct metro access, Dameisha Beach is the most popular beach. During the holiday or on weekends, the beach is always packed with visitors.

The Ruins of St. Paul’s, Macau’s iconic UNESCO landmark, is the surviving stone façade of a 17th-century Jesuit church destroyed by fire in 1835. It's a top touristic spot during the National Day Holiday, so think twice if you plan to see it these days 😁.

Today's dinner at an urban village in Shenzhen: Chengdu Maocai, a beloved Sichuan street food. The chef cooks all your ingredients in a spicy broth, drains off the soup, then coats everything in fragrant numbing-spicy mala sauce.

Shenzhen's Dapeng Sports Center in Baguang area resembles a giant ark resting by the sea. The new landmark comprises a cultural center, a sports center, and Baguang Central Park, all interconnected by canyon‑style corridors.

Currently, the badminton courts and basketball courts at the venue are open to the public. The swimming pool is not yet accessible.

Once fully operational, the cultural center will feature a 1,200‑seat grand theater equipped with a lift stage and immersive audio, a 406‑seat black‑box theater, a library with a collection of 300,000 books, and an exhibition and event space. Floor‑to‑ceiling windows throughout the venue face Baguang Bay.

Wutong Mountain, Shenzhen’s highest peak, has a popular National Day hiking tradition. Many locals climb it to enjoy panoramic city views and mark the holiday, though trails get very crowded on these days

Shamian Island is a tiny oval sandbank on the Pearl River in Guangzhou, once a British and French concession in the 19th century. It's a popular touristic spot you may want to avoid during China's National Day Holiday.

National Day in many Greater Bay Area cities was disturbed by rain in the evening. Many outdoor events were affected. At Shantou Old Town, a performance was halted as people sought shelter from the rain. Did you get wet?

@SimonHume17 Old part is nice, sports park too crowded

Especially on the weekend and during national holidays, people love to take a stroll in Shenzhen's urban parks. Popular parks in Shenzhen are Lianhuashan Park, Shenzhen Talent Park and Shenzhen Bay Park. Which one is your favorite?

National Day at Guangzhou's MixC mall was kinda busy. During the National Day Holiday, malls are always packed with a sea of people.

Celebrating National Day in Shenzhen is an exciting but very busy experience you may want to avoid. After the Shenzhen Light Show, a sea of people tried to find their way back to the metro station to get home, while another sea of people tried to catch the next show.
