City guide

Food & dining

As a migrant city Shenzhen has diverse dining: mild Chaoshan cuisine, steamed dishes and all regional Chinese styles; Futian around HKU-Shenzhen Hospital has abundant international restaurants and imported supermarkets.

Where to stay

Serviced apartments around Futian and Nanshan hospitals are well developed (¥500-2000) with Hong Kong-style management and common English service; hotels near Futian/Luohu borders ease Hong Kong follow-up trips.

Recovery environment

Subtropical coastal climate is especially pleasant in winter; Shenzhen Bay and Talent Park promenades suit rehab walking; high green coverage and new barrier-free facilities make it one of China's most livable cities during chemo cycles.
