Shenzhen Folk Culture Village
Come to Shenzhen Folk Village and experience the charm of 24 ethnic groups in one go! Here, you’ll find authentic ethnic villages where you can get up close to their unique architectures. Wonderful song and dance performances take the stage non-stop, and the vibrant ethnic costumes make for perfect photo ops. Taste special cuisines from all groups, put on traditional clothes for a fun cosplay photoshoot, and capture unforgettable moments. Don’t forget to pick up unique local specialties as gifts for friends and family—they’ll love the surprise! The village is huge, so a full day won’t be enough to enjoy everything!
Bamboo weaving And Cloisonné Handcrafting
Bamboo weaving, one of China's oldest crafts, is not only widely used in daily life for its eco-friendliness, but also integrated with furniture art, making it both ornamental and practical. Cloisonné, on the other hand, has evolved from traditional ornaments into daily accessories like earrings and pendants. You can even try making them yourself and take this unique handcrafted work as a travel souvenir.
Art Exhibition Center
Shenzhen Art Exhibition Center gathers a variety of exquisite crafts. In addition to ceramics and bamboo weaving, there are wood carvings, embroidery, lacquerware, lacquer enamel, and more. These items are not only stunning works of art but also make unique furniture decorations. You can admire their extraordinary craftsmanship while considering which one to take home to add a special touch to your house. In the future, every time you see these crafts, the unforgettable memories of your trip to Shenzhen will come flooding back.
Shenzhen Antique City
Shenzhen Antique City is a really interesting and charming place. While most of the items there are replicas, there are also plenty of old objects with a sense of history—like simple and elegant porcelain, jade articles, wood carvings with a mellow patina, as well as old clocks, coins, ancient paintings, and bronze ware. Each one seems to hold a story.
If you're interested in these old things, take your time to look around. You might just come across something that catches your eye, while also soaking in the rich cultural atmosphere.

I’ve been a licensed English-Japanese tour guide since 2004! I know Shenzhen well—I’ll tell you stories about the "dragon’s sons" on ancient roofs and take you to try high-tech fun like flying cars, drones, humanoid robots, and self-driving taxis, super exciting!
I’m great at shopping too. I know exactly where to go for the best deals: cheap gadgets as gifts, real-looking knockoffs at China’s top high-end clothing market, and 2-carat lab-grown diamonds for just 1,000 RMB. You might even find a business chance you didn’t expect.
Need to visit factories? I can help—show you around, assist with negotiations, or find factories if you don’t have one. After the order is set, I’ll follow up on the progress and help arrange shipping. I’ve ordered clothes, jewelries, frames, lens from factories myself, so I’m super experienced and reliable!
I’m flexible, down-to-earth and easy to get along with. I’ll make a customized itinerary fast. Traveling with me isn’t boring—no cold translator app! I’ll share your joy and vent with you if things go wrong. Your Shenzhen trip will be totally worth it!

“The best guide ever!”
I spent the best three days ever with Miao Miao, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better translator and guide in China. She is incredibly kind, patient, and professional. I have a strong personality and can be quite direct at times, but she always stayed calm, gentle, and understanding. Miao Miao went above and beyond to make sure I was happy and comfortable — she took care of everything with a smile and genuine warmth. It’s very rare to meet someone like her these days someone who truly cares, listens, and gives her best in every moment. I deeply appreciate her help and her heart. She made my trip unforgettable, and I’m truly grateful. ️

Hi Aicha! I’m absolutely delighted to have been your guide in Shenzhen, and those times we shared were truly wonderful. Remember the phone incident at the start? We were quite worried but thankfully got it back—what a scare! You’re such a caring mom, loving wife, and successful businesswoman, and I loved our trips to the jewelry market, clothing wholesale market (where you bought so many lovely things for your kids), and the jewelry factory. Your knowledge of Chinese culture, history, martial arts, and even Chinese dramas is impressive too! Wishing your business grows exponentially, your factory cooperation is smooth, and you achieve great success. Hope you have a fantastic time learning martial arts in Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi. Sincerely grateful for our time together!

Hi Lord, thank you so much for your kind words! I was really happy to be your guide. You're such a wonderful person—so kind, patient, and I really love your sense of humor. That story about dark chocolate and white chocolate always makes me smile whenever I think of it. I had a really great time guiding you. Also, I'll keep following up on the factory orders. Hope your business grows bigger and bigger, and let's continue to work together!
