Most picturesque places in Shenzhen—perfect backdrops for the photo-savvy holidayer!

The city of Shenzhen in Nanshan District, China boasts of an elaborate collection of contemporary architectural feats that will have you reaching for your camera in no time whatsoever.

1

OCT Design Museum

Feel as if you are inside a spaceship when at the OCT Design Museum which is one of the most recognisable features that you will stumble upon when traversing the length and breadth of Shenzhen. Considered the brainchild of architect Pei Zhu, the OCT Design Museum offers ample space for the hosting of design exhibitions but its main draws from the perspective of a tourist is its sheer size and appearance. Located within OCT Harbour, the Museum’s exterior showcases the curving spaces that are on show within while its smoothness and outstanding attention to detail will leave you with a newfound love for futuristic design.

Sea World

Although, bars and restaurants are a major reason as to why one would want to spend time at Shenzhen’s Sea World, the neighbouring promenade would invariably be a great motivating factor to head over, particularly no sooner day gives way to night. The water and lights show which gets underway daily at 7 pm successfully transforms the entire region where the visitor will have the best seat in the house to sit back and delight in a marvellous display, either at any of the outdoor restaurants or by the waters of the lake.

Shenzhen Talent Park

Laden with beautiful stretches of plant life and flowers that have been placed inside painted tires that serve as pots, the gloriously appointed Shenzhen Talent Park is next on this list of the most picturesque places to visit in this part of the country. Also termed ‘Rencai Park,’ Shenzhen Talent Park best serves those travellers who love whiling away the hours, taking one picture after the other. As a camera-friendly zone that is positioned on the city’s waterfront, Shenzhen Talent Park is where you can enjoy a carefree meander and stunning panoramas of a skyline that brings to light the commercial vibes of Shenzhen.

Prince Building

Fancy photographing or even walking up the steps of a simply sensational creation? Then look no further than the Prince Building which is situated a short distance from Sea World. Denoting a clever use of colour and splashes of creativity from top to bottom is the captivating sight of the lantern pavilion which is the primary reason for arriving here. Housed at the heart of the triangular-shaped Prince Building, the lantern pavilion will afford you seemingly countless opportunities to capture angles and pictures of a breathtaking attraction that continues to win over fans with ridiculous ease.

OCT Harbour

Get a clear, unobstructed view of Shenzhen’s past, present and future when you zoom in on the OCT Harbour. Found within easy reach of Ascott Raffles City Shenzhen which is a great option if considering Shenzhen serviced apartment stays, the OCT Harbour will be hard to ignore as you look for ways and means to make the most of your time here. Vistas of docked boats, ongoing construction work and a wonderful, gleaming skyline will be your constant companion, regardless of which time of the day you choose to step out onto the streets. Furthermore, a silhouette of China Resources Headquarters will also fall into focus.
