Shenzhen ranked second in the World's Top Ten travel cities, becoming the only city in China to be among the Top Ten.

Shenzhen Tourism was shortlisted with a score of US$19 billion. Ranked Tenth in the world's top ten tourist cities.

Frequent business contacts between enterprises have brought teh huge flow of passengers to Shenzhen.
