Tucked away in clouds, mists, forests and mountains, Yunhai Park on the south of Meishajian Mountain (梅沙尖) and Sanzhoutang Reservoir (三洲塘水库) in Yantian District is an exciting place for sightseeing.

Its 4,000-square-meter grassland is ideal for leisurely walks, reading and picnics. The park’s cruise ship-like Yunhai Forest Service Station is quite spectacular. Standing on the station’s balconies, one can have a panoramic view of Yantian Port. At a coffee shop with a reading area inside the station, visitors can enjoy the scenic views while sipping delicious coffee. In the future, the station will become a comprehensive service center with cultural, leisure and science popularization functions.
