Dapeng Ancient City
Dapeng Ancient City is a breathtaking portal into China’s imperial past, tucked along the scenic Daya Bay on Shenzhen’s eastern coast. Founded in 1394 during the Ming Dynasty as a naval fortress to defend against South China Sea pirates, this walled town radiates centuries of resilience and elegance. As you wander through its narrow stone-paved alleys, flanked by weathered grey-brick homes and majestic ancestral halls, you’ll feel the pulse of history in every carved doorway and moss-covered courtyard.
