Meet your guide in the lobby of your central hotel in Nanshan District, Shenzhen. Travel to the autonomous driving demonstration zone to board a fully automated taxi. Monitor the vehicle navigation system via the passenger screen as it automatically reacts to street infrastructure, signals, and pedestrians without safety driver intervention.
Next, board a private air-conditioned vehicle to cross the Pearl River Estuary via the sea link project connecting Shenzhen and Zhongshan. View the bridge spans, artificial islands, and underwater tunnel structures from the vehicle window during the crossing.
Arrive in Zhongshan and stop at a regional restaurant for a traditional local lunch. After lunch, visit a vintage automobile museum. Walk through the gallery to see classic vehicles from the 20th century while your guide explains the industrial design history and mechanical progression of the automobiles.
Proceed to Caobian Village, a preserved historical and cultural village in the Zhongshan countryside. Take a walking tour along the historic alleyways to observe regional stone architecture, old residential structures, and local community life.
Afterwards, visit Zhanyuan Garden, a traditional Lingnan-style private estate. Walk along the covered corridors, stone bridges, and pavilions to view the classic Cantonese architectural layout and botanical design.
Return to Shenzhen by private vehicle via the sea link bridge. The tour concludes with a drop-off back at your departure hotel lobby in Nanshan District.
