City of the Future: Shenzhen solo travel

China’s Silicon Valley, the city on the border with Hong Kong — Shenzhen truly impressed me with its modernity. Everything here exudes technology. It’s clear that the city is entirely new, built in a futuristic and contemporary style. Shopping malls deserve a special mention — I got lost in them more than once!

📍I spent two full days in Shenzhen, and here was my itinerary:
Day 1
• Ping An Financial Centre Observation Deck
• Wongtee Plaza
• Civic Centre
• Lianhua Park
• Shenzhen Library
• Shenzhen Museum of Contemporary Art and Urban Planning
Day 2
• Bantian Vanke Plaza
• Talent Park
• OCT Harbour
• Mangrove Nature Reserve

🏡Hotel recommendation:
I’ve stayed at Fuqinglong Huatian Holiday Hotel. It’s located near Convention and Exhibition centre.
