Hi! Does anyone have any recommendations for Gyms? Thank you!
i really like the fruit here but i don’t always know what’s going on, is there a helpful guide somewhere? i’ve tried but it’s been hard to find stuff focused on this area, would be much appreciated
I'll be arriving in shenzhen airport at 230am. Will getting a didi be difficult at this timing? My hotel is at Futien District.
Shenzhen, a modern metropolis and China’s southern economic hub, is experiencing a troubling spike in joblessness. The city recently recorded a 40% year-on-year increase in freshly registered unemployed residents during Q1 2024, highlighting wider national employment concerns. Despite the surge in unemployment, experts point out that Shenzhen’s reported figures exclude previously registered jobless people, and some layoffs go unreported. This obscures the actual unemployment rate and raises questions about China’s employment challenges in critical economic-driving regions.
More on the same in our article:

Hello! We will be traveling to Shenzhen but will fly to Hong Kong as there are no direct flights from where we are. What are legit sites where we can buy tickets or can we just buy in the Hong Kong Kowloon West Station on the day of our departure? Thanks!
Are there any websites for gigs. like, one time jobs foreigners can do?
What to see/where to eat in the evening in Shekou? Ideally not Mexican haha as I'm coming from California (e.g. Baia / Tequila Coyote's). Will actually be my first time to Asia / China.
I have heard Shenzen is the hub for fake luxury watches, where can I see them? Horology geek.
Hello! I’m looking for people to hang out today. I’m in baoan and I want to see how halloween is celebrated in China
I would be paying SGD $912.37 (converted from RMB 4850.45) for a 512GB Oppo Find X8 if I get it delivered to HK. Just wondering if anyone knows how much it would cost if I were to pick it up in-person in Shenzhen? Would it just be the RRP? AFAIK the RRP is RMB4699.
Based on these numbers, I should just buy it in-store?
Context: I do not live in HK nor China. I am travelling to HK for about 5 days in about 2 weeks, and plan to make a day trip to Shenzhen on one of those days.
As title. Now that I got my non-Chinese travel permit, crossing the boundary is a lot less hassle and faster (now if only I can figure out how to register for e-channel for an even better experience). Looking forward to spending most of my weekends in Shenzhen with my new found freedom and looking for hotel recommendations around the HK$500 to $1,000 per night range in Shenzhen. Open to staying at different districts to explore the city fully.
Would prefer recommendations from people who have stayed in the hotels rather than passer by recommendations.
Thanks
Hi guys. Has anyone here worked at (深圳云顶学校) Shenzhen Yunding School in Futian? If so, what is your experience with it? Would you recommend working there with only 3k housing allowance? The salary is supposedly between 22 and 28k depending on experience. Hours seem decent, about 20 teaching hours/week and the rest is prep time.
Hey everyone.
Can you recommend a few places in Futian or Nanshan that would be good to go for Brunch this Sunday? It can be Western or Chinese/Cantonese food. I'm not looking for fine-dining, but something that has good food and a good atmosphere. I've tried Googling this but the results aren't great.
Thanks!
I visited SZ and really liked it! Now I'm thinking about moving to SZ and staying longer. Do you have any recommendations for job platforms? I found a few on Facebook, but they seemed sketchy, so I avoided them.
Hi, I'm about to buy an iphone, american version, and it doesn't have a physical sim card slot. Can I use it in China? I'm gonna stay in China for a long time.
