Trip to Macau, Zhuhai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong (Nov/Dec 2008) - Part 4

Our first stop of the Zhuhai’s city tour was the Mermaid Statute which was created by a well known sculptor, Mr Pan He according to a local folklore.

Our next stop was the Shijingshan Park where we would get a birdeyes’ viewof the Zhuhai city. To get to the hilltop, we took cable cars (with dangling legs in the air type) to capture another view of this beautiful city. But the trip down the hill was probably something more memorable although we have the choice of the same cable car ride. We took ‘Tommy Car’, a ride which was so terrifying along the edge of the hill, swerving left to right at breakneck speed. At the end of the ride, we were awarded a ‘certificate of achievement’, of course at a charge with our terrifying looks imprinted on the certificate for remembrance.

After lunch, we set off for another city in the mainland China, Shenzhen. The coach ride took us about 2.5 to 3 hours and our first destination was a large theme park, Splendid China. Immediately, we see delightful faces from the kids in our tour, all 9 of them, the moment they have been waiting for. The tour guide immediately ushered us to the War Show which was one of the highlight in this theme park.

After the show, we toured the theme park which featured many miniature scenic spots in China.
