7. Is Shantou suitable for traveling
:South Australia. There are a lot of people, so itit's' best to contact the housing authority and make a reservation first. If money permits, its better to rent a bus*** car by yourself. Let the bus take you to the various attractions. It's fun to spend the night there. Its a bit cold though. You can also go to CITIC Resort and rent BBQ stuff for the night, but the price, with room and entrance fees, will be more expensive.
Lotus Hill also has hot springs. Winter is the best time to soak in the hot springs, but overnight stays are also expensive. You can also go to Meizhou. I left early in the morning and didn't come back until the next night. It was just one night. Go to a travel agency and you can join a group of 30 people. There is no scenery in Shantou, only parks and they all cost money, not recommended.
1You can go to Shixian Scenic Area, take the ferry from the people or take the Shixian Bridge. Another bus 11 can reach the foot of the scenic hill.
You can also go to Times Square (also known as the Convention Center), which has nice green spaces and is very crowded and lively at night. There is a newly completed library which is very beautiful.
Lotus Hill Hot Spring Resort is also a good choice. You can take bus 102 in downtown, which is part of Chenghai District. The air is very fresh.
Overseas Chinese Park is one of the three major paid parks in Shantou. It is quite lively during the Spring Festival. It is recommended to go at night. It is too hot during the day and there are not many places to shade.
You can visit the military barracks in Nan'ao, and the roundabout road in Nan'ao is also a scenic avenue.
