“Most people come to Shenzhen for the tech. Dapeng is where I show them the soul of this place — a 600-year-old fortress that defended China's coast, then a cliff trail that makes you forget you're in a city of 18 million.”
— Adam, La Roja Guide
“We almost skipped Dapeng for another tech tour. So glad we didn't — walking through the fortress and hearing the Opium War stories gave us a completely different perspective on China. The cliff trail views were unreal.”
— Sophie, Guest from Australia
