This animation gives you a great idea of how fast it has grown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Shenzhen_Metro_evolution.gif https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Shenzhen_Metro_evolution.... It's a modern subway (puts NY to shame) - I've been going since ~ 2010, almost every year a new line or two has opened up. From the beginning you get on the subway in Hong Kong, take a train to the end of the line, exit the subway, go thru customs, walk over a bridge, thru CN customs, and down into the green line subway station in Shenzhen. Now days there's also a high speed train from Hong Kong/Kowloon

Do they still have the arcades (markets) right at the train stop selling all kinds of fake goods? I used to go there and buy all kinds of knock-offs but they were not the best quality. Also, all my friends in HK said don't stray to far from that mall as it gets dangerous at night (This was around 2002) and I know "dangerous" is relative.

  That market is still there, there's a floor of fabric, and floors of tailors, you can get anything made. I didn't start going until after 2010ish I think it's very safe at night, I've wandered all over, certainly safer that some US cities, there are a lot of cops around
