The world is so big, come and see it with me🌍
Not bad for a few hours, plenty of eateries inside, although it’s not what one expects, remarkably not as “ancient!”. Nice to wander about and good to go on a week day or non-holiday to avoid crowds. Vintage stores and lots of art galleries. Inside also some history and halls dedicated to historical figures.
Great place for sightseeing especially through the old streets it’s a great vibe. Wouldn’t recommend for a whole day though I’d say you’ll get through it all in like an hour or an hour and a half at the most.

Shenzhen is a relatively new city, but there are also some hidden germs of ancient culture. One if them is Nantou Ancient Town or Nantou Ancient City. It is pretty much interesting to take a look on the image of this region before it became what we know today.
