"Just Shenzhen" Whole-City Discovery Route
Shenzhen Foundation for International Exchange and Cooperation is taking you on a virtual journey across the city. The "Just Shenzhen" whole-city discovery route covers 3 districts in Shenzhen: Luohu, Futian and Nanshan. Through 8 exploration sites, the route will take you know about the wonderful stories and cultural connotations of Shenzhen’s landmarks.
The First Stop: International Trade Centre Building
It's construction in 1982 was implemented with the "Shenzhen speed" of “building one floor in three days”, which made it the tallest architectural landmark in Shenzhen at the time.
The Second Stop: Huaqiang North
Constructed in 1982 as China’s largest distribution center for IT products, Huaqiang North is known as China’s "First Electronics Street".
The Third Stop: Shenzhen Concert Hall
Designed by the Japanese master of architecture, Mr. Arakisakia, its exterior wall combines Eastern and Western styles by using the "5 Chinese Elements" colors: yellow, red, blue, white, and black.
The Forth Stop: Lianhuashan Park
Built in 1992, the park looks like a lotus flower in full bloom and is thus named 'Lotus Hill' and is one of the "Top 10 Shenzhen Attractions".
The Fifth Stop: Ping An International Finance Centre
Located in Futian's CBD, this 118-floor building, nicknamed as "Dragon Ridge", is the tallest skyscraper in Shenzhen.
The Sixth Stop: OCT-Loft
What used to be an old industrial area has since been transformed into a cultural hub where creativity, design, and art thrive.
The Seventh Stop: Shenzhen Talent Park
As China’s first talent-themed park, it pays tribute to the outstanding scholars that have contributed to Shenzhen’s development in the past 40 years.
The Eighth Stop: Shekou Sea World
With 80% of Shenzhen’s international education resources and almost half of Nanshan’s expat population, Shekou has now become a "mini-UN".
