As a young city, Shenzhen lacks the cultural sites of Beijing and Shanghai, but has many hiking opportunities, city parks and beaches to explore as well as a growing expatriate community. See our Around Shenzhen page for recommendations and directions to popular spots. Shenzhen is still growing at a rapid rate; new restaurants, shops and bars are constantly opening. You can find out what events are happening in Shenzhen in the expatriate magazine That’s Shenzhen. You can also check out our school blog, The Nanyan Observer, for some more articles on things to do around Shenzhen.
