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.

About Tour Guide Miaomiao W.
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 2000+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, no generic cookie-cutter tours—just breathtaking spots tailored just for your taste. Traveling with me is anything but boring, and you won’t need cold translator apps at all. I’ll share your joys and listen to you vent if things go wrong. Your Shenzhen trip will be totally worth it!

Hi Diana, Thank you for your amazing review! It was my great pleasure to guide your lovely family and I also had a wonderful time with you all. I was very moved seeing how thoughtfully your two daughters cared for their 92‑year‑old mother. It was truly such a precious family trip. Hope to welcome you back to Shenzhen again. Wish your whole family good health! Miao Miao

“A must tour if you are into technology ”
Our group really enjoyed this tour. It exceeded our expectations. Time went by so fast when you are having fun. We extended our tour. It was well worth it. Our guide Miaomiao is very fluent in English and was able to answer our questions very quickly. I would recommend her 100%.

“A Fantastic Shenzhen Experience with Miaomiao”
Miaomiao was a fantastic guide during our time in Shenzhen. She communicated clearly and did everything she could to accommodate us, even when we changed our plans a few times. At the Gold and Diamond Market, she helped us find the right options and negotiate with the stores. We also visited the toy market with my daughter and had a wonderful time browsing the hundreds of little shops. Miamiao made it so much easier to talk with the shop owners and helped us find the right products amongst all the options. The next day, we realised one of the rings we’d bought was the wrong size. Although Miamiao wasn’t working, she still helped us contact the store and arrange a swap. She made the whole process so easy. We couldn't have done this without her. The whole experience was frantic and fun, especially going with my 9 year old daughter. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Miamiao to anyone visiting Shenzhen.
Miaomiao W.
Hi Nicholas, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for recommending me so highly! I truly appreciate your kind words. I’m so happy I could help you find a diamond ring your wife loves. I hope it will be a beautiful reminder of your love and that your marriage will remain as strong and everlasting as the diamond itself! I’m also glad we found some toys your daughter loves and that you all had such a fun time exploring the markets together. Even though I wasn’t working the next day, I was happy to help with the ring exchange. Knowing that you had a great experience in Shenzhen and found what you were looking for means a lot to me. It’s one of the most rewarding parts of being a guide, and I’m always happy when I can make a trip a little easier and more enjoyable for my guests. Thank you again for your trust and kindness. I hope we’ll have the chance to meet again on your next visit to Shenzhen! Warm wishes, Miaomiao
