A must-visit coffee and lifestyle space for hipsters, half the price of Hong Kong

Go to Shenzhen, not only can enjoy the vitality of the city, but also drink Starbucks coffee for half price, really even "sipping" becomes value for money! This time I will share with you my recent trip to "Earth King Sightseeing · Window of Shenzhen and Hong Kong" - overlooking the view of Shenzhen and Hong Kong from a high altitude, slowly sipping a cup of coffee, is simply healing both physically and mentally. If you want to steal a leisurely, quiet book and drink coffee, this route is worth bookmarking!

Highlights of the itinerary
This line not only has the Land King Building overlooking the view of Shenzhen and Hong Kong, but also has many comfortable coffee shops around (especially Starbucks, Hong Kong people must try, the price is half cheaper!), the city can be very chill for a short trip. It is recommended that you arrange a "high altitude vision + coffee time" mini trip to help you steal half a day of leisure from the fast pace.

2. Starbucks & surrounding cafes
There are many coffee shops near Shenzhen-Hong Kong Window. I recommend you to go to Starbucks. Not only is the environment comfortable, but the price is half cheaper than in Hong Kong. Whether it's a single order of Italian concentrate or a new specialty drink, it's ridiculously cheap! Grab a book, sit by the window, look out the window and enjoy a different coffee time than in Hong Kong.

Tips Extension
If you are a coffee lover, remember to reserve more time to sip slowly! Bring your favorite book, which can be a travel book, a literary sketch, or just look at your mobile phone. After playing at the high-altitude observation deck, you might as well go back to a nearby coffee shop and get an "urban inspiration rest stop" in a Shenzhen-friendly way. Some coffee shops even have beautiful views for photos.

Practical strategy
Access: The Land King Building is located in the heart of Lo Wu. It is very convenient to take the MTR to the "Grand Theater" station and exit A.
Food recommendation: There are many kinds of restaurants in the surrounding area. In addition to coffee shops, there are also many Cantonese, Japanese and snacks. You can always find your favorite choice here.
Trip tip: Remember to look at the opening hours (some days change); it is recommended to avoid weekend peak hours, so taking pictures and enjoying the scenery will be more comfortable. In addition, the high-altitude observation deck does not seem to have to stop for a long time, after the flash can go downstairs to enjoy coffee, from the "city skyline" to the "book quiet corner", the feel is really different!
