    It's the same all over the country. E-bikes and street vendors are completely unregulated, it's utter chaos.

  • Shenzhen Has NO Bike Lanes?! WTF, It's a Total Mess!
    S Shawna Keebler-Satterfield

    Breaking the law with no consequences, hit-and-runs, speeding, and honking at everyone they encounter – it's a real showcase of 'fine' attributes.

    Great Wall Hustlers: Harder to Dodge Than the Steps & Twice as Shady! Don't Buy Their BS. #ChinaTravel #ScamWarning 1

    Sure, here's the translation of your Chinese article into fluent and easily understandable English:


    Hey there! I've seen people online suggesting that visiting Shenzhen may not be a good idea for travel recently.

    • Shenzhen, which I know is a super-modern big city right next to Hong Kong, developing extremely fast! Buildings are towering everywhere, it is all about technology, being the first "special economic zone" of China's reform and opening up, so its history differs significantly from ancient cities in other parts of China, making it quite young.
    • But why do people not seem to recommend Shenzhen as a travel destination?
      • Is it because it's too "young", compared to historic capitals like Beijing (with the Forbidden City and the Great Wall) or Xi'an (with Terracotta Army), which lack ancient temples, palaces or old town areas?
      • Or does Shenzhen give off too much of a commercial vibe, with offices and shopping malls everywhere, making it less friendly for those who want to relax and enjoy nature?
      • Is it because as a Chinese mega-city like New York or London, its expenses on food and accommodation are quite high, making it not really worthwhile?

    ⚠️ Warning: Take heed of the friends who've been there! Here are some "minefields" you must avoid:

    • When traveling throughout Shenzhen, what are some "traps" (those spots that sound promising but actually lead to disappointment, or bad experience) must be avoided?
      • Are there any attractions that although famous, aren't really worth the entry fee, or have extremely large crowds with awful experiences?
    • What cultural habits and tips, do foreigners need to pay extra attention to when first coming to China and moving around in Shenzhen (like taking the metro or taxis), staying overnight, or playing?
      • For example, does Shenzhen tend more towards short-term business trips rather than leisure vacation? If I wish to experience the local life, what would be some good suggestions?
    • Speaking of which, if one really wants to go to Shenzhen, what are some hidden play methods or local delicacies recommendations that can showcase Shenzhen's uniqueness? After all, each city has its uniquely distinctive side!

    Looking forward to hearing true experience sharing from you guys! Thanks in advance!

    S Shawna Keebler-Satterfield

    I just went to the lantern festival, it was incredibly beautiful! And it was also Mazu's birthday. Before the festival, the beach area was indeed free, but there wasn't much to do, and you couldn't go into the water.

    I only came because it was a 0 yuan ticket! It was a 4-hour trek and my legs were killing me, but the on-site effects were stunning, and it even coincided with Mazu's birthday!

    You've had it for half a month? I've been dealing with this for two months now. Complaining is useless. I asked before how long until completion, and they told me about 20 days. Well, another month has passed, and it's still nowhere near finished 😅.
