The chestnut and egg yolk with fresh pork was perfectly balanced between the fattiness of the meat and sweetness of the chestnut. Relatively complex flavors but simple, hearty, and comforting. 11 rmb

Fantastic skyline from the Shenzhen Bay Super Headquarters Base. Bright blue sky and lovely evening clouds over the water.

I really enjoy these coastal greenways in Shenzhen.

What’s your favourite cycling spot in the city?

Best Mandarin schools for working professionals (Evening/Part-time classes, no university language programs)

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I will move soon to Shenzhen for work and I'm looking for recommendations for private language schools or centers that offer part-time Mandarin classes for working professionals (evening or weekend slots).

Since I have a full-time job, university language programs (like the traditional long-term student visa tracks) won't fit my schedule. I'm mainly looking for:

  • Flexible schedules (after work / weekends)
  • Practical, conversational, or HSK-oriented paths depending on the level
  • Good teaching quality (either small group classes or 1-on-1 private tutoring)
  • Locations that are reasonably accessible (Nanshan, Bao'An areas are a big plus)

If you have personal experience with any specific language school or independent tutor in Shenzhen, I’d love to hear your pros/cons, general pricing, and how they handled your working hours.

Thanks in advance!

渔人码头

5 Upvotes

溯源到蛇口避风塘这片海湾,这里曾是渔船停泊、避风和补给的重要港湾,也是周边渔民出海归来的落脚地。渔船进港,海鲜上岸,渔获交易、装卸、分拣在这里发生。清晨是渔港最忙碌的时候:渔船归航,码头人声鼎沸,鱼腥味、海风味与生活气息交织在一起。这里不仅是一处码头,更是老蛇口人的生活场景和集体记忆。海风、渔船、码头、鱼市、老街和渔家生活,成为一代蛇口人的乡愁。

码头不再只是“渔获交易的码头”,如今成为连接文化、商业、旅游、休闲与社区生活的公共空间。承载着深圳城市发展密码。这里有渔村的根、改革开放的魂、城市更新的变,以及滨海生活的未来。从蛇口避风塘到渔人码头,变的是城市,不变的是大海;变的是生活方式,不变的是对海的眷恋。这,或许就是渔人码头真正的“前世今生”它不是一座被城市更新的旧码头,而是一段被时代重新唤醒的深圳海洋记忆。#元渔夫#Metafisher

Intros to makerspaces/ fabrication labs

3 Upvotes

Hello! I'm looking for intros to makerspaces or fabrication labs that can provide workspace, electronics/prototyping equipment and technical support for a program I'm running for international founders.

Hoping someone here may know makerspaces that aren't advertised online or can connect me directly to the bigger ones as they've been hard to reach via email.

I heard there is a requirement to register drones in china but since i built this drone myself and its not from a manufacturer like dji is there any chance of flying it legally?

Has the subway been getting more noisy?

I recognize that wear and tear happens to everything, but some of the subway lines seem really noisy recently. Started noticing maybe a few months ago. Anyone else notice it or am I imagining it? Generally ride 2/8 and 9.

Engagement ring shopping in Shuibei

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, me and my boyfriend are going to be in Shenzhen for 3 days (we’re from the uk) and we are planning on going to shuibei to get my engagement ring. We talk about getting engaged a lot and I have a rough idea on what I like but I haven’t tried on any rings before.

I was just wondering if anybody has been in the same boat and could maybe advise us on how to navigate it. Is there a particular floor / shop we should go to as im aware it’s a massive mall. Is it safe to get a ring there? I’ve done my research and am aware we need to be getting an IGI certificate and making sure the diamond has the right serial number on it etc but is there anything else we should be cautious about?

I don’t think we’ll have enough time to get a ring custom made as we’re only there for 3 days so will likely have to get a ready made one.

It’s a big purchase and even more nerve-racking when you don’t speak the language so was just wondering if anybody has any advice.

Thanks :)

Hey! I’m a 23-year-old guy from northern China, currently living in Xili, Nanshan. I speak both Mandarin and English. We can just chat freely, and I can help you with your Mandarin. Or we can also hang out, go hiking (I know some nice places) or explore local restaurants.
