Description

One of China's great metropolises—a boomtown without a past and hungry for the future.

Founded only in 1978 as one of the first Special Economic Zones under Deng Xiaoping's reforms, Shenzhen with its 12.5 million inhabitants is a young city. It's also a business city, a port city, and a green city.

Shenzhen introduces more than 150 relevant buildings and places that constitute the physical palimpsest of modern China's most famous town of foundation.
