Zhongying Street is a narrow street, only 4 meters wide, which draws attention due to its unique ‘one street, two systems’ characteristic.
Of course, another reason for its popularity is the affordability of shopping, which has always been a significant allure.

Zhongying Street is located in Shatoujiao Town, Yantian District, Shenzhen City, originally named ‘Lu Zhijing’.

Before the return of Hong Kong in 1997, the east side of the street belonged to China, and the west side to the UK, hence the name Zhongying Street.

After the return of Hong Kong in 1997, the east side now belongs to Shenzhen, while the west side belongs to Hong Kong.

Zhongying Street is less than 0.5 kilometers long, with the ‘boundary stone’ marking the center of the street.

Shops line the street, offering products from all five continents, with a wide variety of goods available.

The boundary stone can also be considered a small attraction, as visitors often take photos as a memento, but due to natural weathering, some stones have lost their edges, and some inscriptions have become blurred.

Many people have misconceptions about Zhongying Street, thinking that it is full of counterfeit goods.

In fact, locals who live here often shop at Zhongying Street instead of going to Hong Kong.

Daily necessities and food items are abundant, and some are even cheaper than in Hong Kong.

It is recommended to purchase food, daily necessities, and cosmetics here.

At the end of the street, there is a Zhongying Street Museum worth visiting.

This museum is quite worthwhile, as it reflects the historical changes and vicissitudes of Zhongying Street.

It is open all year round from 09:00 to 22:00, with specific business hours subject to the day’s opening status.
