Olympic Ice Skating Arena in Shen Zhen

by bpacker

I'm no Peggy Fleming but I do love the Olympic size ice skating rink at the MixC shopping mall, which is incidentally the largest shopping mall around here.

How to go there: By Shenzhen Metro, 3 stops from Lowu, alight at Da Ju Yuan.

Where: MixC is located to Shenzhen's tallest structure, Diwang Building.

Tip: Thursday is Ladies Night (!) so there's discounted entrance fees for the fairer sex. On Wednesdays at 8pm, you can see the more talented skaters perform their routines. There are skates for rental here.

Shenzhen Metro

by THLIN

The most and safest way to travel around in Shenzhen is to take MTR. You can leave LuoHu immigration checkpoint and all the way to ShiJieZhiChung...meaning the window of the world, a local amusement park. The ticket is rather cheap if you want to compare the price with her neighbour city Hong Kong. The line connects most touristic sopts here, and distance between station to staion is not very far; therefore, you can see the downtown easily within few days.

great italian food in the heart of shenzhen

by zephyrgurl108 about foccacino

Foccacino is a nice Italian restaurant in one of the city's latest malls in Futian, Coco Park. They have indoor and outdoor dining, free wireless internet and English speaking restaurant staff. They have expanded their menu to include more vegetarian options and put a symbol next to vege dishes so you wouldn't miss them. Price is average. A good meal withapetizer, main dish and a drink will cost about 50-80 rmb.
Don't forget the tiramisu in this restaurant. italian salad, extra spicy spaghetti arrabiatta, tiramisu

My City, My Home

by DreamingJosipa

"The city I have lived since I was 10"

This is my home, a new rising city in the south of China. Every single person appears a different colour and tone, colourful people and colourful life, it becomes a impressionistic painting.

"Something in Tawny"

Tawny, is the colour that I am looking for in the city. Sometimes it shows up in the woods; sometimes in your eyes; sometimes in people's mood...
I would take out my camera and record it down.
What colour are you in now?

"Getting late..."
