About Shenzhen
These places are spread across a large city, so choosing a theme is more useful than collecting distant landmarks in one day.
For a first visit, the History and Folk Culture branch of Shenzhen Museum supplies context through local-history displays and a recreated traditional street. A second outing can focus on the landmark models at Window of the World or the walls and lanes of Dapeng. The latter is a separate eastern excursion, not a short walk from the downtown skyline.
What to look for
- Shenzhen Museum’s Civic Center branch includes local-history galleries and a recreated street.
- Window of the World displays reduced-scale international landmarks.
- Dapeng Fortress preserves walls and old village lanes in the eastern coastal area.
The surrounding area
A separate major city for waterfront leisure, contemporary urban life, Nantou and longer excursions toward Dapeng.
Location & getting there
