Where can you not play in the water in summer? Go canyoning and diving!

Transportation By car: About 2 hours from Guangzhou. Navigate to "Shimentai Nature Reserve" or "Tianmeng Gou Scenic Area". Public transportation: Take a bus from Qingyuan city to Yingde, then transfer to a local vehicle. 🌲Attractions: This is a natural, long, strip-shaped large pool (see Figures 9-11). Both sides are mountains and woods, so it's especially cool. The distance between the two sides is about 10 meters. There are stones for standing, which is relatively safe. Those who can't swim can bathe in the shallow water area 🛀🏻. The deep water area is about 3-5 meters deep, and many people dive. I even spent an afternoon exploring the deep water (I'm a breaststroker and not very proficient yet). I dived twice. It was so exciting! 🏕️Shimentai Canyoning Tour: Trek along the stream through canyons, waterfalls, and deep pools, and experience the primitive natural scenery. Suitable for outdoor enthusiasts. 🏕️Recommended route: Starting from the entrance of the reserve, hike along the stream to the waterfall group. The whole journey takes about 3-4 hours. 🏕️Grand Canyon and Xueshanzhang: Grand Canyon: The longest and deepest canyon group in Guangdong Province, with cascading waterfalls and towering peaks. It's a cool summer retreat. 🏕️Xueshanzhang: With an altitude of 1379 meters, the top of the mountain offers a wide view, suitable for mountain climbing and sightseeing. 🏕️One-day tour route: Morning: Shimentai Nature Reserve (canyoning/hiking) → Grand Canyon waterfall viewing Afternoon: Tianmeng Gou Scenic Area (hot spring experience/canyon hiking) → Return trip Features: Compact natural exploration, suitable for tourists with good physical strength.

Environmental protection and safety: It is forbidden to enter the core area.

Weather: It rains a lot in the mountains, so it is recommended to bring rain gear and sunscreen.
