Luogu Valley, Shenzhen's first non‑standard park‑integrated commercial complex, officially opened on Sept 29 in Pinghu subdistrict, Longgang district.

Spanning 114,000 square meters, this refreshing spot preserves lush native lychee groves along with gentle streams. Instead of a typical enclosed shopping mall, 20 standalone store buildings dot the rolling hills, blending seamlessly with lawns and woodland scenery.

Over 30 original and creative brands have opened stores here, including three making their nationwide debut, five entering South China for the first time and four opening their first locations in Shenzhen. Guests can grab a cup of coffee, explore distinctive merchandise and take striking photos surrounded by rich green plants.

Boasting open lawns, hilltop bookstores and scenic spots, it is an ideal weekend escape for expats in Guangdong. Visitors can leave the fast-paced city behind and unwind amid nature without having to travel far.
