Shenzhen Airport and Shenzhen Metro

Shenzhen Airport, via Metro Line 5 and 1.

I transferred from Line 5 to Line 1 at Bao’an Center. I found the signage clear, and I had no problem moving quickly from one train to another. The train emerges from underground between Gushu and Hourui stations.

Thus, the “Airport East” Station is elevated; again, I had no problem finding the enclosed pedestrian bridge that leads from the station to the airport.

The walk is not too far, about 300 meters between the buildings. There are moving sidewalks to help, and escalators to provide access where the bridge meets the sidewalks in front of the terminals.

Shenzhen Airport has two departure halls, designated “A” and “B.” The pedestrian bridge enters the building exactly between the two. Each hall has restaurants (including KFC, McDonald’s, and Starbucks) and plenty of shopping.

About Shenzhen Weather,Climate (3)

Shenzhen is situated in the subtropical part of China, located at about the Tropic of Cancer, yet due to the Siberian anticyclone, has a warm, monsoon-influenced, humid subtropical climate.

Winters are mild and relatively dry, due in part to the influence of the South China Sea, and frost is very rare. Spring begins somewhat dry, but rainfall begins to dramatically increase in April, and the rainy season lasts until early to mid October. The monsoon reaches its peak intensity in the summer months, when the city also experiences very humid, and hot, but moderated, conditions.

The region is prone to torrential rain as well, with 10 days that have 50 millimetres (1.97 in) or more of rain. The latter portion of fall is dry. The annual precipitation averages at over 1,900 millimetres (75 in), some of which is delivered in typhoons that strike from the east during summer and early fall.

About Shenzhen Geography (2)

Shenzhen is located in the Pearl River Delta, bordering Hong Kong to the south, Huizhou to the north and northeast and Dongguan to the north and northwest. The municipality covers an area of 2,050 square kilometres (792 sq mi) including urban and rural areas, with a total population of 14 million in 2008.

The city was originally a hilly area, with fertile agrarian land. However, after becoming a special economic zone in 1979, Shenzhen underwent tremendous change in landscape. The once hilly fishing village is now replaced by mostly flat ground in downtown area, with only Lianhua Shan (Lotus Hill), Bijia Shan (Bijia Mountain) and Wutong Shan the only three places that have some kind of elevation viewed from satellites. With the influx of migrants from inland China, Shenzhen is experiencing a second stage boom, and it is now expanding peripherally and the hills in surrounding areas such as Mission Hills are now being toppled over to make land for more development.

Shenzhen is located on the border with the Hong Kong SAR across the Sham Chun River and Sha Tau Kok River, 100 km southeast of the provincial capital of Guangzhou, and 60 km south of the industrial city of Dongguan. To the southwest, the resort city of Zhuhai is 60 km away.

About Shenzhen Brief Introduction (1)

Shenzhen is a major city in the south of Southern China's Guangdong Province, situated immediately north of Hong Kong. The area became China's first—and arguably one of the most successful—Special Economic Zones. It currently also holds sub-provincial administrative status, with powers slightly less than a province.

Shenzhen's novel and modern cityscape is the result of the vibrant economy made possible by rapid foreign investment since the institution of the policy of "reform and opening" establishment of the Special Economic Zone in the late 1970s. Before this, Shenzhen was a small village. Since the late seventies, both Chinese and foreign nationals have invested enormous sums in the economy of Shenzhen. More than US$30 billion in foreign investment has gone into both fully foreign owned and joint ventures, initially mainly in manufacturing but recently increasingly in service industries. Shenzhen is now reputedly one of the fastest growing cities in the world.

Being southern mainland China's major financial centre, Shenzhen is home to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange as well as the headquarters of numerous high-tech companies. Shenzhen is also the third busiest container port in China, ranking only after Shanghai and Hong Kong.
