Tucked away in a leafy area of quiet streets near Shekou Port, the Red Rooster is a fine bar with ample seating space, a pool table, sports channels and a secluded beer garden. They have a special on Tsingtao draught with the first large (frozen) mug costing RMB20 and each mug thereafter decreasing in price until the fifth will only set you back RMB5. From there on every mug costs RMB5 so, in one way, the more you drink the more money you are saving. They also serve decent bar food. The burger is a proper filler by anyone’s standards. They could invest in a few more CD’s but Red Rooster, whether it’s your starting point for a night on the town or a base for a lazy Sunday afternoon, still comes in as a charmer.
Red Rooster is in between Shekou Port and Seaworld. From the port head along the alley going northeast. When you pass the entrance of the Nanhai Hotel you will see the sign for the Red Rooster.

The Shekou Sports and Social Club, the Snake Pit, is a comfortable retreat for Shenzhen's work-weary expats. It has all the flavour of an English local with an Asian twist. The service is easy-going but on the ball. It's the type of place where the staff get to know customer's names without making a fuss. The Snake Pit has a membership scheme involving registration. Members have a book of chits  (drink credits) kept for them. If you want to try it out you can buy a book of five chits for RMB100. There are also some quirky rules such as no ties, and no making or receiving phone calls (punishable by standing your fellow punters a round). The Snakepit is a great place to relax in the evening and get to know other expats in Shenzhen.
Taizi Square is opposite Seaworld and on Taizi Road near the Taizi Hotel. The Snake Pit is next to Pizza Hut. Bus nos. 105, 204 and 220 pass here. A taxi from Luohu will cost about RMB80.

Beer Paradise is a simple bar with an open-plan layout and a pool table. The range of beers on offer however is anything but simple. They stock over fifty types of international bottled beer and it is surprising what you would find. Needless to mention, imported beer costs more than the local stuff. The staff are anything but shy and if you are on your own, make agreeable, if a little boisterous, conversation companions.
How to get there

Cafe de ZZ

This cafe-style bar has edible pizzas for RMB60 and large bottles of Tsingtao for RMB25. The best thing about Cafe de ZZ is the special offer that is available every night. For RMB100 you get one pizza and all the Tsingtao you can drink until they close at 2am. With comfortable sofas and a cosy atmosphere, not to mention customer control of the music, you'd be hard pushed to find a better deal in Shenzhen.
 
Since first writing this review Cafe de ZZ has decided to add a 10% "service charge" to their prices. While this does not change the fact that it is a cheap place to get drinked up, it is not the kind of place that should have a set service charge and more effort could be made to inform the customer of this extra charge before ordering.
 
How to get there
The Seibu building is opposite the Hilton Hotel on Dongmen South Road. From Guomao Metro stop walk east along Jiabin Road until you reach Dongmen South Road. Seibu is at the intersection. Bus nos. 2, 5, 14 and 17 stop here.

Tairyo has to be one of the most successful Japanese restaurants in China. They have outlets all over the country. The two in Shenzhen are of the same standard as those in other cities. The menu mostly consists of items to be grilled on the hot plate but also includes sushi, sashimi and other Japanese dishes. The best deal here is the RMB150 buffet, which includes alcohol. Customers can sit at the hot plate and watch their fillet steaks being grilled or for a more private evening choose a table and have their orders brought to them. Japanese food lovers, curious novices, those yearning for good red meat at affordable prices and anyone excited by the idea of unlimited beer and sake will get a kick out of this place. On weekends it is best to book ahead.

Amigos is a Tex-Mex restaurant that also has Italian dishes, seafood and steaks. The food is good, the portions are generous and the English speaking staff are efficient without being unnecessarily formal. This is Western food served in a Chinese way, so if you don't want your main course to arrive before you are finished your starter you had better request so beforehand. It's a little weaker on the bar front, seeing that it is laid out more like a restaurant than a pub (with pictures of famous Texans and Mexicans like, er, Audrey Hepburn decorating the walls). Then again the outdoor-seating area makes it a pleasant place to sink a few.
 
A meal (consisting of starter and main course) here will cost about RMB100-150 per person. Beers cost RMB16-45 and mixed drinks are RMB45. A 10% service charge applies.
 
Amigos is opposite MacDonald's in Seaworld.  Seaworld is off Taizi Road near the Taizi Hotel. Bus nos. 105, 204 and 220 pass here. A taxi from Luohu will cost about RMB80.

The recently opened Spice Circle brings Indian food for the higher end of the market to Luohu district. The menu consists of "contemporary" and "incredibly Indian" cuisine.

We offer one day trip in Shenzhen by car(10 hours service/day)

1.OCT-LOFT
By far the best place for strolling or simply hanging out in the city is the breezy OCT-LOFT complex, a warren of repurposed communist-era factories criss-crossed by cobbled laneways. It's also a great place to browse a multitude of contemporary art spaces in between pit stops at the area's excellent cafes, design shops, music venues, bars, restaurants and Shēnzhèn's best bookstore.
OCT-LOFT (OCT stands for Overseas Chinese Town) started out, appropriately for Shēnzhèn, as a TV manufacturing base before it was converted into a creative industries hub. Staying here is recommended, if you can snag a room at the hip Shēnzhèn Loft Youth Hostel, formerly a factory workers' dormitory complex. Note that OCT-LOFT isn't actually served by OCT metro station.

2.Windows of the world
The Window of the World is a theme park located in the western part of the city of Shenzhen in the People's Republic of China. It has about 130 reproductions of some of the most famous tourist attractions in the world squeezed into 48 hectares (118 acres). The 108 metre (354 ft) tall Eiffel Tower dominates the skyline and the sight of the Pyramids and the Taj Mahal all in proximity to each other are all part of the appeal of this theme park.You can see famous scenic spots (replicas) all over the world here such as Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Louvre Pyramid,Acropolis,Leaning Tower,Shirasagi Castle,Sphinx of Giza...


3.Shenzhen bay park
The park occupies a 13-kilometre long stretch of reclaimed land along the southern coast of Shenzhen on the north shore of Shenzhen Bay (Deep Bay), starting west near Shenzhen Bay Bridge at Wanghai roadand ending at the Hongshulin Nature Reserve. It spans much of the coastline of Nanshan and Futian districts. It runs along much of the length of Binhai and Binhe Boulevards and occupies an area of 108．07 hectares (267.0518 acres).
The park is divided into two sections,namely Shenzhen Bay Coastal Recreation Zone(深圳湾滨海休闲带) at its South West side and Hongshulin Coastal Ecological Park(红树林海滨生态公园) at its Eastern side. The latter is situated within the Hongshulin Nature Reserve, a habitat of numerous endangered bird species and is also known for its mangrove.
The entire area of the park opened on August 6, 2011, days before the 2011 Summer Universiade that took place in Shenzhen. The Hongshulin Coastal Ecological Park was opened earlier in December 2000. The entire length of the park is motor vehicle-free. Cycle paths and picnic spaces are featured along the park.[2] The park offers a panoramic view covering the Shenzhen skyline and New Territories, Hong Kong.
