Accommodation in Nanshan from AU$136

Nan Shan is one of the seven districts of Shenzhen and is a popular holiday destination thanks to the city's highly developed tourism industry. Here you can see Xin'an Old Town, the Window of the World, Happy Valley, and many other interesting sights, so book your Nan Shan hotel and make your next trip to China awesome!

Xin'an Old Town has been the site of a city since the 4th century, and retains the vibrant culture of ancient China in its narrow little streets. Modern buildings dominate the landscape, but as you stroll through them all, keep an eye out for glimpses into the city's ancient past. Check out the magnificently preserved Ming Dynasty Wall and Gate before visiting the Guan Yu Temple. You can explore the ancient naval headquarters and see a traditional opium den and a silver shop, and walk through "Flower Street" which was once a tiny little alleyway full of brothels. Here there is also an official stele dating back to the 18th century that denounces the evils of prostitution.

The Window of the World is a creative theme park in the western part of Shenzhen, so come and marvel at over 130 replicas of the most famous landmarks in the world. Dominating the skyline is an impressive reconstruction of the Eiffel Tower that stands 108m high, as well as the Pyramids and Taj Mahal just a short walk away. Happy Valley is another awesome theme park, and is broken into nine separate sections to heighten the entertainment. The most popular in summer is the Playa Maya Water Park, where you splash around in the pools and slip down water slides that are all constructed with an ancient Mayan theme.

Soak up the relaxing atmosphere at Mangrove Tree Beach Park, or head to Dafen Oil Painting Village to browse through the largest oil painting market in the world - you can even create your own! Learn about the ethnic traditions of the minority groups in China at the Folk Culture Village, or marvel at the ornate architecture of Chiwan Tin Hau Temple. If you're looking for shopping the Nan Shan Commercial Area is the perfect location, and where you'll find many malls and boutique stores with the latest designer fashion. Wind down a day at the relaxing Lychee Park as you stroll through the landscaped gardens and pleasant pavilions before heading out for a night of entertainment. SheKou Bar Street is your best option for a fun night, and a place where you can enjoy many restaurants and drinking establishments that line the street.

There's no better place to stay in Shenzhen than Nan Shan. Here you're conveniently located to all of the best attractions, as well as being able to get away from it all in parks and gardens that are amazing and peaceful.
