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!

“Amazing trip with Miaomiao”
My family and I had a fantastic tour with Miaomiao. She was absolutely amazing and informative. She took us all around Shenzhen and nothing was too much to ask her to arrange. I would highly recommend a tour around Shenzhen with Miaomiao!

Hi Justin. A huge thank you for your amazing review! It was an absolute pleasure showing your wonderful family around Shenzhen’s high-tech wonders—your three kids were so cute, and their curiosity about the robot dog, brainwave painting, and all the tech was such a delight to see. I loved watching you and your wife interact so warmly with the kids, and I’m glad you found the perfect DJI drone too. It makes me so happy that your whole family loved Shenzhen and made such lovely memories (and great group photos!) here. Hope to see you all back in Shenzhen soon—looking forward to your next visit!
