With its excellent environment, glitzy economy and opening mindset, Shenzhen has become a dream destination for many enterprising persons as well as a resort for all kinds of travelers.

Though usually representing the newest trend of a period, Shenzhen, as a county, has already had a long history of more than 1,600 years. When initiated as a county, it was named 'Bao'an', and then recalled many times due to the unstable local government. Not until 1979, it was authorized as a city within the prefecture of Guangdong Province, and first entitled 'Shenzhen'. The special economic zone was established in 1980 as a test base for the Chinese Reform and Opening Policy, which gives it a good opportunity to develop to be a first-class city in China.
