Experience Shenzhen’s vibrant diversity in one go—this guide is a must for sisters on business trips to Nanshan!
🌈 Citywalk Route: Mixc World 👉🏻 Shenzhen Bay Park 👉🏻 Shekou Old Street 👉🏻 Sea World 👉🏻 Happy Harbor
A unique shopping complex blending open blocks and a mall, with plenty of stylish spots. Head to the 5th floor, exit through the middle passage between Broadway Cinematheque and M Stand—this is Shenzhen’s iconic “Manhattan-style” photo spot, not to be missed! Stop by the 4th floor for Grandma’s Handmade drinks; their longan ice is a signature. After exploring, hop on a bike 🚴🏻 to the next stop.
Shenzhen Bay is pure romance. Cycle along the coast toward Mangrove Bay, with views of Hong Kong Island, the Bay Bridge, and Nanshan’s CBD skyscrapers in the background. The golden sunset paints the sea like scattered diamonds, and the cool sea breeze whispers by—words can’t capture the feeling. I lingered, wanting to stay forever. Ride to Mangrove Bay Metro Station, then take the subway to Shekou Old Street for snacks.
Exit Dongjiaokou Metro Station via Exit A, then follow this food trail (the route flows smoothly!):
Shekou Old Street’s shops are old-school, with simple vibes but tons of warmth—totally worth a visit.
After eating, bike over to digest. First, check out Huanchuan Square to see the Minghua Ship—a huge vessel parked right in the mall (shocking at first sight!). The area is lively, with stunning night views. Then wander to the Sea World Culture and Art Center: a quiet, chill space where you can sit on the steps, listen to live music (singers perform without fanfare), and let the sea breeze clear your mind. Pure relaxation.
If time allows, take the subway 🚇 to Happy Harbor. Don’t miss “The Light of the Bay Area”—the Ferris wheel is romantic from every angle. Stroll the waterfront; the post-worknight atmosphere is serene and lovely.
⭐ Final Thoughts:
Shenzhen’s night views are stunning—beautiful architecture, twinkling lights, and sea views, with malls steps from the beach. As a Beijing drifter, I envy this! The nightlife is lively too—streets buzz at 10 PM, with more midnight snacks than you could try in a month. This 6-hour itinerary (3 PM to 9 PM) recharges your spirit—hope you feel Shenzhen’s charm too!
