In Bao’an District, you can find a pedestrian greenway that extends for nearly 7 kilometers beneath the Guangshen Coastal Expressway. Shenzhen cleverly utilized the open space under the towering pillars as a path for walkers, runners, and cyclists. Along the path, there are facilities with restrooms, playgrounds, and other interactive checkpoints, for an inclusive and leisurely shared space.
While walking along this path, I was able to take photos of the stunning views of the repeating pillars stretching into the distance. At almost every point on the path, there were plenty of people moving at the same pace as me or heading in the opposite direction.
After exploring the Qianhai Bay Pedestrian Path (前海湾慢行道) , you can take a taxi further down the coast to Xiwan Mangrove Park (西湾红树林公园), where you'll find more excellent views of the Shenzhen–Zhongshan Link and other coastal structures. These spots are particularly well-known among the photography community, so you will see many others beside you trying to capture the perfect photo.
