Lian Hua Shan Park in the centre of Shenzhen is large and a beautiful urban park that features a kite-flying area, a small fishing lake, and a mountain (shan...) at its center. And from the top of this small mountain is a perfect 180° vista over downtown of the city.
Situated in Guangdong province, Shenzhen is a city with a population of over 12 million people. Any of the travel guides of China does not say much about this city except the fact that it is good only for shopping. The impression is changed now due to its fast growth. Shenzhen is a sub-provincial city of southern China and is well-known for its great immediacy with the border of Hong Kong. Shenzhen is a hub of foreign investment and it has been one of the fastest growing cities in the world since the late 1970s. It also holds the busiest port in China after Shanghai. Now-a-days Shenzhen is a lively, multi-ethnic city that offers variety of cultural and leisure venues for travelers, as well as endless shopping and dining.
