Nestled in northwestern Shenzhen, Guangming District offers a wealth of mountains, forests, and lakes, providing easy access to picturesque landscapes. With 279 parks, Guangming leads the city in blending green spaces with urban living.


Strolling through these parks, discovering a café or tea shop, and sitting down to admire the scenery has become a favored pastime for modern city dwellers seeking to experience an urban oasis.

The 4.03-million-square-meter Hongqiao Park stands out among the district's parks. It features the iconic Red Bridge, a 4-kilometer-long canopy walkway that weaves through lush vegetation and above shimmering waters.


Yuezaiting Art Station, unveiled in Hongqiao Park in May 2024, offers a tranquil retreat inspired by Lingnan garden design. The space features a café on the third floor and a tea lounge on the second, seamlessly blending art and leisure. 


On the third floor, the Apexone café offers a serene escape from the city's hustle and bustle with carefully brewed Yunnan mountain coffee. Visitors can relax, admire the park's mountains, forests, and lakes through large windows, and enjoy the tranquil ambiance.


Meanwhile, on the second floor, Puunana, a premium tea shop, offers an open setting distinct from Apexone's enclosed space.

Nestled in the heart of Hongqiao Park's South Square, Wild Space is a tea shop exuding charm. As you step into the park, your eyes will be drawn to a building adorned with floor-to-ceiling glass windows. What sets it apart is the unique balcony design on the second floor, giving the structure the appearance of a massive hat from a distance.


Wild Space seamlessly blends natural aesthetics with contemporary living. The interior decor mirrors its name, featuring dried reeds that create a rustic and untamed ambiance.


Light Realm & Mountain Mould


The 980,000-square-meter North Wing of Guangming Science Park, which opened in July 2024, serves as a convergence point for artistic, scientific, and recreational endeavors, catering to residents and tourists alike. When other sections are completed, Guangming Science Park will encompass 2.165 million square meters, making it Shenzhen's largest urban park.


After ascending through the forest to reach the summit of the mountain, guests are greeted with a breathtaking panoramic view of Guangming and a unique coffee shop called Light Realm & Mountain Mould, a serene resting place for weary climbers. Aside from coffee, tea, and snacks, this shop also showcases various cultural and artistic products.


Kafa Coffee


Kafa Coffee's automated coffee machines are located in Hongqiao Park, Science Park, and Xincheng Park, offering a quick and convenient coffee experience. Using premium Arabica beans from Ethiopia and milk from New Zealand, the machines freshly grind and brew each cup on demand.
