Shenzhen, the Back Garden of Hong Kong


Shenzhen is located in the south of Guangdong province. It is separated from Hong Kong by the Shenzhen River in the south, so Shenzhen is always known as the Back Garden of Hong Kong. Shenzhen is a highly developed modern city, but compared with many big cities in China, Shenzhen does not have many natural scenic spots. Shenzhen have established some artificial ones to attract travellers. There are many attractions worth a visit in Shenzhen.

Happy Valley entrance

Happy Valley offers amusement for all ages including roller coasters, a massive water park and a variety of live performances. Try to go on a weekday to avoid long line-ups for rides. It has lots of fun rides and beautiful gardens in places.  There are also many entertaining shows, and souvenir shops for you to purchase items.

Shenzhen’s Window of the World is just about upon China Folk Cultural Village. Shenzhen Window of The World integrates world wonders, historical relics, natural scenes and folk performances. Window of The World which contains 118 sight spots is divided into nine areas: World Square, the Area of Asia, the Area of Oceanic, the Area of Europe, the Area of Africa, the Area of America, the Area of Modern Science and Technology Entertainment, the World Sculpture Park and International Street. 

When night comes, you can enjoy wonderful night shows combined by folk songs and dances and programs. This big amusement park is a great way to get a glimpse at the most amazing world's landmarks, pyramids, Eiffel tower, Saint-Michel, Grand Canyon etc. It's actually quite big and good fun to see, and even includes a couple of attractions for the young like for the elderly.
