Nantou Ancient City

Here’s how to make Shenzhen awesome in 5 days and 4 nights, all from a futuristic Dongmen base 🚀✨ Check out the smart hotel hacks, family perks, and robot food runs that make your stay next-level. Stay: Shenzhen Dongmen CM+ Service Hotel Apartment (No.7 Xinyuan Road). The check-in’s a breeze (they use tech for everything: robot food delivery, WeChat comms, AI lighting!), and the rooms are both modern and extra clean. Families, you’ll dig the kid-friendly extras—extra beds, laundry, and huge rooms. Staff are legendary for their helpfulness, but heads up: a couple of guests mentioned inconsistent policies and occasional noise. Day-by-day highlights: Day 1: Settle in, unpack, try out the robot delivery! Chill with family-friendly amenities—if you need more towels or anything, just WeChat the staff. Day 2–4: Explore Dongmen’s bustling shopping streets, street eats, late-night snacks, and tech stores on foot (hotel’s super central). Hop the metro to Luohu for malls or Huaqiangbei to geek out on electronics, then escape back to your soundproofed oasis. (1) I tried an award winning coffee at nantuo ancient city. The cafe is hidden in a corner. Very worth to try. Fruity and clean. 5/5 (2) I tried the goose duck at 潭记。 very crispy and tasty. 5/5 (3) I tried the dim sum at fanluo. U must go early to avoid the Q. Food I rate it 4.5/5 Day 5: Wrap up with breakfast nearby (try local dim sum shops), then late checkout if you’ve booked it! Getting Around: Metro’s the way to go—Dongmen has its own stop. Download a local transport app for routes, and get yourself a Shenzhen Metro Card for top-up convenience. Food: Don’t miss Xin Yuan Lu’s street eats! Use trip.com to book restaurants and check reviews. Extra tips: Weather’s humid—pack light. Most payments are cashless, so set up WeChat Pay or Alipay. No visa on arrival—sort it ahead! #ShenzhenStay #SmartTravel #FamilyFriendlyAsia #DongmenLife #tripcom #dimsum #Goose duck #coffee
