Hit the Beach in Shenzhen

Tuesday August 12, 2008

In China, a country filled with economic success stories, the city of Shenzhen truly stands out. Just three decades ago it was little more than a sleepy fishing village. Then, in 1979, it was designated a Special Economic Zone, setting off a development boom unlike any the country had ever seen. Skyscrapers have been sprouting up like flowers ever since, each more brilliant than the last. Today, millions of people come to Shenzhen to do business, and the city buzzes with energy at all hours, but there's still one place to go when you're just looking to unwind. Dameisha Beach has been a local favorite for years, offering sun, sand, and surf to people who desperately need some rest and recreation. Beach volleyball, paragliding, windsurfing, and other beachy activities are available, but many people prefer to just relax in a lounge chair and listen to the ocean. There's no better way to de-stress. Guests at the Sheraton Dameisha Resort, Shenzhen are just steps from one of China's loveliest beach areas.
