Panlong Ancestral Residence

The Panlong Ancestral Residence in Laokeng Community in Longtian Subdistrict, Pingshan District, is a Hakka compound built in 1864. With three main halls and four watchtowers, the residence, covering an area of 1,780 square meters, is a traditional Qing Dynasty Hakka enclosed compound.

Pengcheng Village

Separated by knolls outside of Shenzhen's most-modernized areas, Dapeng Village occupies a basin on the peninsula’s east coast. It's named after a giant mythical bird, called the "peng" in Chinese, which also lends its name to one of Shenzhen's nicknames: Pengcheng, meaning "peng city."

Chiwan Goddess Temple

As a coastal region, Shenzhen has several temples honoring Tianhou, the Chinese goddess of the sea. The goddess temple in Chiwan, Shekou, is the most splendid of them all. According to historical records, Chiwan Goddess Temple is one of only three goddess temples named by Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) emperors among the 3,900 temples dedicated to the goddess throughout China.

Longtian Ancestral Residence

Covering an area of 5,000 square meters, Longtian Ancestral Residence in Pingshan District is one of the best preserved Hakka residences in Shenzhen. The house was listed by Guangdong as a protected historical site in 2002. Like the traditional Hakka houses, Longtian Ancestral Residence is grand-looking like an old castle with high walls and upturned eaves. Surrounded on three sides by a half-moonshaped pond, the residence looks like a turtle shell from the outside.
