🏙️ Shenzhen Dongmending

📖 Mall Introduction and History

Dongmending is located in Luohu District, Shenzhen, and is one of the most historic commercial districts in Shenzhen.

• Its history can be traced back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties , when Dongmen was the center of Shenzhen's market and gradually developed into a prosperous commercial district.
• After the reform and opening up, Dongmen became Shenzhen’s earliest “shopping paradise” and in the 1990s it was a must-visit destination for Hong Kong people heading north.
• Today, Dongmending retains the traditional "pedestrian street" atmosphere while introducing modern shopping malls, brand stores and restaurants, forming a "fusion of old and new" feature.
