Itinerary

  1. Gangxia Village is located in the center of Shenzhen. It was built by residents who lived in Shenzhen at that time. At that time, Shenzhen was still a small fishing village, but now Shenzhen has become an international metropolis. Due to government planning issues, the urban village cannot be quickly demolished, so it will always be located in this location, providing cheap housing for young people from all over the country who come to Shenzhen to work hard. (30 min)
  2. This is the most prosperous shopping mall in Shenzhen, and has the most diversified businesses and flow of people in Shenzhen. People from mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and foreigners from all over the world gather here to witness the changes and development of the city of science and technology. (30 min)
  3. This is the central axis of Shenzhen City. It is the political, economic and cultural center of southern China. In 1992, Deng Xiaoping drew a circle here during his southern tour. Now it has been transformed from a field into a modern city. Directly in front of the square is the financial center of Shenzhen City, where offices of various Fortune 500 companies gather. Further ahead is Hong Kong, where you can reach the Hong Kong port in 10 minutes by subway. The mountain behind is Lianhua Mountain, and the statue of Deng Xiaoping is on its top. Xiaoping pointed to the Futian CBD in front. (30 min)
  4. This is Shenzhen’s old business district and the city’s first pedestrian street. It has the country’s first McDonald’s. The street is still crowded with people and has wholesale markets for goods of all categories. People on the street are selling goods through live streaming, which is a different scene from other countries. (30 min)
  5. This is Shenzhen's red-light district. Because Hong Kong people gather here and Shenzhen brings together young people from all over the country, there are entertainment venues for all classes and groups here. (30 min)
