大鹏所城

Dapeng Suo City originated from the coastal defense station of the Ming Dynasty and retains the city gates, street pattern, defense relics, temples and later mansions related to the South China Sea. Its space also records defense during the Qing Dynasty, village life in the 20th century, and community use that continues today. The ages of the existing buildings are not consistent. When visiting, you should combine the protection instructions to distinguish between the original structure, the restored part and the revitalized part.

华侨城创意文化园

OCT Creative Culture Park transforms old industrial buildings into galleries, studios, design agencies, coffee shops and event spaces. The value here is not in the fixed sightseeing checklists, but in the relationship between the transformed concrete structure, green courtyard and the changes in Shenzhen’s creative economy. Exhibitions and merchants will change, which is suitable for slow observation of architecture and cultural production taking place, not just consumption.
