The National WWI Museum and Memorial is the official museum dedicated to the Great War in the United States. Located in the heart of Kansas City, it offers an extensive look at World War I, particularly focusing on American involvement. Visitors can explore diverse exhibits that feature authentic artifacts, immersive interactive displays, and engaging narratives. Key exhibits, such as "The Battlescape,” recreate the feeling of being in the trenches during artillery barrages, providing a deeper understanding of the soldiers' experiences. At the museum's grounds, you'll find a stunning poppy field and the Liberty Memorial Tower.

For a taste of nature just outside the city, hiking up Wutong Mountain is a favourite among locals and visitors alike. The mountain offers a range of trails, so whether you’re an experienced hiker or just looking for a scenic stroll, there’s something for every fitness level. The effort is well worth it when you’re rewarded with sweeping views of Shenzhen—and on clear days, you can even catch a glimpse of Hong Kong in the distance. While the hike is the main attraction, make sure to explore the Hongfa Temple, one of the largest and most revered in Shenzhen, as well as the botanical garden nestled in the mountain’s foothills, where you can relax and immerse yourself in lush greenery.

For a lazy day at the beach, head over to Lido Azzurro. This beautiful beach offers facilities like changing rooms, showers, deck chairs and umbrellas. If you are feeling hungry there are restaurants and bars around the area (sunbeds and umbrellas are offered at a fee, but you can bring your own).
