Shenzhen Futian 'Slow' Life Guide!

Shenzhen's speed has never been unfounded, the fast-paced life often makes people breathless, if poetry and the distance are too extravagant, then come to Futian to experience slow life!

If it wasn't for a deep ecological tour of Futian with friends last week, I wouldn't know that there are so many ways to live a slow life in the center of this city!

1⃣️Go for a slow run on the Xinshou Mangrove Greenway
This greenway is on both sides of the Xinshou River, the environment is excellent, there are also many people walking, jogging and blowing, the atmosphere of slow life is full!

2⃣️Have a picnic on the big lawn of Futian Mangrove Ecological Park with family and friends
Futian Mangrove Ecological Park is a very suitable place for the whole family to play, spread a picnic mat, eat your favorite snacks and fruits, look at the beautiful scenery of the mangroves, if you bring children, you can also visit the science museum inside

3⃣️Go to the urban village to eat and eat
Shenzhen's urban villages are also a feature of Shenzhen, separated by a wall, it is like two worlds, Futian has two large urban villages, Shasha Village and Xiasha Village, in the village you can see the harmonious scene of ancestral halls and high-rise buildings in the same frame, you can also see the legendary 'handshake building', and there are many delicious foods.

4⃣️Read a book in the Futian District Library in the afternoon
Although there are many internet-famous libraries now, the ones that really have the atmosphere of traditional libraries are still district libraries, which are very quiet inside and still full of people studying, it is easy to integrate into such an environment as soon as you enter, find a book you like, and you can read it all afternoon.

5⃣️Go to Shenyue Shangcheng to take a picture of Mondrian's large color blocks
If you look at the reflective glass of high-rise buildings for a long time, you might as well go to the top floor of Shenyue Shangcheng to see the colors and light and shadow, in fact, this is a very internet-famous photo check-in point in Shenzhen, but there are not many people, it is generally very quiet, take a few photos, and then find a coffee shop to sit and drink coffee, very comfortable!

6⃣️Lie on the hanging chair in Shenzhen Central Park for a day
Shenzhen Central Park is one of my favorite city parks, it is very large, I recommend going to Zone E, the scenery is the best, the lounge chairs by the water are super comfortable, many people lie here reading books, looking at the lake and the sky.
