The beautiful Dongguan by the Eduardo's lens.

In recent years, Dongguan is committed to enhancing city quality and improving the urban environment. It is making an effort to build a thriving Dongguan from "the prosperous urban core-charming towns-beautiful villages", and has been some progress.

Eduardo was deeply touched witnessing the development of Dongguan along the way. "20 years ago, when I first came to Dongguan, what I saw was a large area of farmland and ranch houses. The sky in Dongguan was grey. But now, tall buildings are a common sight. We can often see the blue sky. The environment has improved a lot. I know this is because China has spent a lot of manpower and resources to upgrade the city quality. The environment, not only in Dongguan but in Guangdong as a whole, has become better." Edward said with a smile.

He started cycling was initially to relieve work pressure. Later, he fell in love with the scenery on the way, so he began to film the view along the ride and share the beauty of Dongguan with his friends and relatives at home and abroad.

He also noticed that there were more and more parks in Dongguan, the environment more healthy, and the construction is getting better and better. He gave a big thumbs up for the bicycle lanes, which were added to ensure cyclists' safety and encourage a more active and healthy lifestyle for the citizens. "Along the way, you will found that there is beauty always around us. We just ignore it most of the time. I am always amazed by the beauty of Dongguan, and I can't help but want to record it and share it with more people. You never know how beautiful Dongguan is!"

Although he is over 40 years old, he has a strong body due to frequent cycling and fitness. As the environment and infrastructure improve and health awareness increases, he has seen more people join the cycling team, both Chinese and foreigners. He hopes everyone can enjoy the different kinds of scenery of Dongguan and feel the charm of the "pearl in the Greater Bay Area".

At present, they have launched a "family ride" activity, which organizes veteran and novice cyclists to ride around Dongguan together every week to experience the joy of riding.

"Exercise will make us healthier and happier. Let us exercise together and go out to experience the beauty of this city." Finally, he told his love for the city: "I love Dongguan. This is a great city, and I would like to spend the rest of my life here."
