Activity itinerary

Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Centre

1h
Admission ticket included

Right in the heart of Futian stands the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center — a place that never really slows down. Most companies keep their R&D, marketing, and sales offices here in Shenzhen, while their factories are based in the surrounding cities. This center shows that creative side of Shenzhen — where ideas are born before becoming real products. The venue is busy all year round with different kinds of events — from comic cons and cultural fairs to large-scale tech and industrial shows. The theme is always changing, so if you’re interested in visiting, I’ll check what’s happening on that day. It’s a great chance to see the latest innovations, explore what’s trending, and experience Shenzhen’s energy for yourself.

Hongfa Temple

2h
Admission ticket included

Fairy Lake area is a large natural park at the foothills of Wutong Mountain, with plenty of green space, trails, and scenic spots. Hongfa Temple is a small but peaceful part of the park, featuring traditional Chinese architecture with golden roofs and elegant carvings. The park has a quiet lake in front of the temple, and in the surrounding mountains, hidden temples peek out from the trees, giving that classic Chinese-style view. Walking along the trails, there’s a natural waterfall and plenty of calm spots to pause and enjoy the scenery. The area is especially beautiful in the morning mist or in the late afternoon when sunlight touches the golden statues. It’s a place that blends culture, nature, and light exercise — a perfect escape from Shenzhen’s busy city life.

Maoye Mall (huaqiangbei)

2h
Admission ticket included

I usually take travelers to Huaqiangbei because it’s one of Shenzhen’s must-visit spots, especially if you’re into tech. It’s the world’s largest electronics market — a real wonderland full of gadgets, computer parts, cameras, phones, and tiny components you won’t see anywhere else. Walking through the streets and malls, you really feel Shenzhen’s energy and innovation. Shops are stacked high, products everywhere, and people are busy negotiating, testing, or building — it’s fast-paced, exciting, and totally unique. I like showing travelers around because it’s not just about shopping. It’s a glimpse into how Shenzhen became a global tech hub. You get to see the gadgets, check out the latest tech, and even spot cool DIY components. It’s lively, it’s chaotic, but that’s exactly why it’s worth visiting.

Shenzhen MixC Mall

1h
Admission ticket included

Shenzhen is packed with large malls, and MixC World is one of the city’s prime examples. It’s a modern, bustling complex where locals hang out, shop, and eat — basically a favorite way for Shenzhen people to spend their free time. Inside, there’s a mix of international brands, trendy cafes, restaurants, and boutique stores, all under one roof. The mall also often features light decorations, art installations, or seasonal events, giving it a lively and colorful atmosphere. Visiting MixC World gives a peek into Shenzhen’s urban lifestyle, showing how locals enjoy entertainment and socializing in the city. It’s casual, convenient, and a nice break in between sightseeing.

Gankeng Ke Little Town

Twenty-Four Histories Academy - Located in the north of Gankeng Ancient Town in Longgang District, the Twenty-Four Histories Academy is a peaceful place built in a traditional Chinese style. You’ll see classic white walls, grey roof tiles, small bridges, pavilions, and calm water views that make you feel like you’ve stepped into old China. When the lights turn on at dusk, the whole area looks even more beautiful—like a scene from a historical drama. When you visit with me, we’ll walk around slowly, explore the gardens, libraries, and quiet hallways, and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere. I’ll also help you take great photos in the best spots. It’s one of the best places in Shenzhen to feel ancient culture and enjoy a break from the busy city.

Shenzhen Talent Park

1h
Admission ticket included

Shenzhen Talent Park blends innovation and relaxation. It offers a mix of tech and nature, with a nice breeze and sea views perfect for casual walks. A standout feature is its drone food delivery system – drones deliver meals, showing Shenzhen’s tech edge. You can experience this at dusk before it gets dark. The park is also home to autonomous taxis, offering a glimpse into the future of transport. Beyond the tech, it’s a great place to relax, with landscaped paths and open spaces. At night, the park lights up, giving you a stunning skyline view. Perfect for a walk, the sea breeze and city beauty create a tranquil atmosphere. Talent Park is where Shenzhen’s tech and beauty meet.
