A fishing village forty years ago that is now a tech metropolis taller than most, theme parks that reproduce the world's landmarks at a stroll-between pace, and a border crossing to Hong Kong close enough to do as a side trip.

The best time to visit Shenzhen is Mar–May, Oct–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 29°C (83°F).
