Heads-up: You said “during Japan Silver Week.” Silver Week 2026 is ~29 Apr–6 May, which does not overlap 18–28 — confirm the exact month/year so I can lock train times and ski booking windows. “Da zhou station” is decoded as 大洲站 (Dazhou), Guangzhou Metro Line 7 — the last stop before Foshan’s Shunde. The hotel at Dazhou is left open (you only named the station) — fill in the property name when booked. Arrival/departure updated: lands SZX 19th 15:10, departs SZX 28th 17:00 (so the Shenzhen leg is now 2 nights, not 3).

Money-saving & booking tips

① Book rail & ski online, 1 day ahead — 12306 / trip.com for HSR; 热雪奇迹 / 华发 mini-programs for ski. Gate price is higher and weekend slots sell out.
② Travel off-peak — ski weekend tickets cost ~35% more than weekday; shift Huadu/SZ ski to a weekday if flexible.
③ Real-name ID — passport for every HSR ride and ski entry; carry it everywhere.
④ Metro day passes — Guangzhou ¥20/1-day, ¥50/3-day if you ride a lot.
⑤ Taxis for groups — for 2+ people, DiDi is often cheaper than 2× metro + HSR transfers on short cross-city hops.

Hotel nightly (est.): 如家-style budget ¥200–350 · 威斯顿 serviced apartment ¥300–450. Confirm at booking.

Dining verification: “Chai Dien” is likely the 彩点 (Caidian) dim-sum chain; “Ke Deh Kitchen” is likely 客德 (e.g. 客德私房菜, a Hakka kitchen). A 客德 branch I found sits in 黄庄 (广州大道北), not Liwan — so confirm the exact venue/branch. Both pins are placed on 长寿路 (Changshou Rd) per your instruction; adjust the pin once the real name is confirmed.
