Overview
Located in the southern Pearl River delta just across the border from Hong Kong’s New Territories, Shenzhen has been one of the fastest growing cities in the world since its opening in the late 1970s. Once a small fishing village, Shenzhen is now the busiest port in China and the largest manufacturing base in the world. Shenzhen is a major center for foreign investment and trade— the bustling city imports more goods than any other city in China. Shenzhen was recentely ranked by the World Bank as having the second best investment climate for foreign firms and third most effective local government in all of China.
