Wow, this one is very difficult...it could be one of thousands! But, in keeping with the true spirit of "photo guessing", I will submit this unlikely guess:

Have you heard of the Four Famous Man-made Gardens of China? Lying to the southwest of Shantou city center, Zhongshan Park is one of them. My guess is that this picture was taken in Zhongshan Park, Guangdong province, Shantou city. TCG.com provides excellent information about this park @ www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/guangdong/shantou/zhongshan-park.htm

Why here, you might ask? No fruit trees, no flowers blooming, lots of palm trees...looks subtropical. Reminds me of Fujian province, but one can tell this is NOT a natural garden.

What are the other 3 Famous Man-Made Gardens in China?

The palms remind me though of Luo Hua Park in Guangzhou but it's difficult to say.

Maybe this one is too difficult. But do not feel frustrated. Here is another hint: There is a famous Karst cave in the park.

Keep on guessing!!! Let's see who will be the winner.

Okay, the second clue was most beneficial!

The park where this photo was taken is a famous Yahgshou attraction known as Assembling Dragon (Julong) Cave. This famous attraction I have never been to, but it sounds like an extraordinary place!

Thanks, Christine. Lion, I do not think that there is a karst cave in Shenzhen Beach Park. The Assembling Dragon Cave is just a cave, not a park. Since there are so many caves in Guilin, it is still hard to guess. Maybe it is the Butterfly Spring Park because the Butterly Grotto is located in the park. The URL is: http://www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/guangxi/yangshuo/butterfly-spring-park.htm.
