Highlights
I don’t just show you the city — I bring it to life. I studied Business English at university, worked and traveled in several countries, but my heart has always been rooted in Chinese culture. I’m energetic, open-minded, and love the little joys of life — a peaceful park, a quiet temple, a tasty street snack. I believe travel should feel natural, not rushed. That’s why I won’t take you to crowded, overpriced tourist traps. Instead, we explore places where you can truly breathe and connect. I’m deeply proud of China’s history and traditions. Along the way, I’ll share not just facts, but real stories about Chinese culture, daily life, and how we see the world — from ancient philosophies to modern quirks. What I truly hope is that my day of company and storytelling will help you feel — really feel — the culture of Shenzhen and the heart of Chinese people. You’ll get: door‑to‑door Didi rides, honest recommendations, and a guide who laughs easily and cares about your experience.

Known as “China’s No. 1 Electronics Street,” Huaqiangbei is a living fossil of Shenzhen’s reform and technological innovation. Evolving from an electronic components market into a cradle for global makers and tech gadgets, its buzzing streets and endless electronics tell the legend of Shenzhen’s very own “Silicon Valley.”

About Shenzhen
Shenzhen, on the Hong Kong border in Guangdong, grew from a fishing district into a modern city of towers, parks and technology.
Until 1980, Shenzhen was a county of farms and fishing villages on the border with Hong Kong; then it became one of China's first special economic zones and grew into a city of skyscrapers, among them the Ping An Finance Centre, one of the tallest buildings in the world. Parks and wide boulevards run through the centre, and Lianhuashan Park, a hill with a statue of Deng Xiaoping, gives a view over the towers.
Top-ranked sights in Shenzhen: Splendid China Folk Village, Window of the World.
