At the theme park Window of the World, visitors get to stroll through a mini-version of the globe. In just an afternoon, you can wander among over 130 replicas of iconic landmarks from five continents: snap a selfie beneath the towering Eiffel Tower, step back in time at the pyramids of Giza, and wind along the paths of Cambodia’s Angkor Wat. The park doesn’t just recreate famous sites—it also brings them to life with events year-round. Summer’s Beer Festival and Winter’s Dance Festival fill the grounds with live music, dancing, and international flavors.

Once Shenzhen's tallest skyscraper, Di Wang Building is more than just an architectural feat—it’s a symbol of the city’s rapid growth. Take a 50-second ride to the 68th-floor observation deck, where you'll be treated to panoramic views: Shenzhen’s ever-expanding skyline on one side and a glimpse of Hong Kong on the other. Once holding the world record for construction speed (an impressive 2.5 days per floor), this building is a testament to the city’s ambition. Although newer skyscrapers now tower over it, Di Wang remains a must-visit for those wanting a bird's-eye view of Shenzhen's dynamic urban landscape, especially when the sun sets and the skyline lights up.
