Detailed itinerary
1
Climb a 108-meter hill in the heart of Shenzhen and stand eye-to-eye with a 6-ton bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping—the man who turned a fishing village into China’s fastest 5G metropolis. From the summit, 360° smart-city panoramas reveal drone-light highways, rooftop solar farms, and skyscrapers that talk to satellites in real time.
2
One of the most popular spot where oversea travelers visit in 2025. The biggest electronic product market in the world.
An extraordinary place to discover: from novel products like robot dog, AI glasses, drone and humanoid robot, to a hidden trading market where sells the world biggest robot dog and drones with 110kg maximum carrying weight.
Only in this group, you will explore the hidden market.
3
A 15-km seafront boardwalk puts Hong Kong’s skyline so close to you. Along the way, you’ll spot delivery drones dropping bubble tea from the sky—order on your phone, catch it mid-air. The same stretch served as the marathon finish line for the 2011 Universiade, so every stride you take is on a champion’s track.
4
Here is the most scientific place in Shenzhen: driverless Taxi, drone delivery dispatch center, robot coffee, exoskeleton.. etc
"Innovation driving is actually talent driving".
5
So many icons for this first university of Shenzhen. Whether you want to chill with a campus walk or trace the cornerstone of Shenzhen’s technology and business boom, this is the spot.

8
Night Activity - Musical Fountain, Available everyday: 168 jets shoot 50 m high, dancing in perfect sync with live rock, classical and Cantonese pop. Surrounded by open-air cafés and a retired French cruise ship, the plaza becomes an open-auditorium where mist, light and beats wash over the crowd—no ticket, just grab a craft beer and feel the spray.
9
Night Activity - Drone show, Available on Sat & Sun: 1,000 pixel-drones lift off like silent fireworks. Above the mini-Eiffel Tower, they braid 3-D dragons, flip into windmill, and spell “SHENZHEN” in mid-air. Each light is GPS-locked to the millimeter, turning the sky into a 400-meter-wide touchscreen.
