    Shenzhen is the truly boring one. Went once and never wanted to go back. It's worlds apart from Shanghai.

        I spent half a day in Shenzhen and then just left. I honestly didn't even know where was worth visiting.

          Hahahaha, that's so true. Even we locals think it's incredibly boring.

            Shenzhen has plenty of parks, nice greenery, and many new buildings. But it's still relatively boring. Most things Shenzhen offers, other developed Chinese cities have too—the main differences are just scale and newness. Other cities boast unique culture and history, which Shenzhen lacks. Let's just say, if there's one city in China you could easily skip, it's Shenzhen.

              Shanghai's the same.

                Boring people find everything boring.

                  That's just how it is for people who rush through places, just wanting to take photos and 'check in'.

                    Shanghai's old architecture has way more history than Hong Kong's or Macau's. If you don't get it, maybe pick up a book.

                      This is the first I'm hearing that life in Hong Kong is more comfortable than in Shanghai.

                        People in Shanghai don't care; seriously, nobody gives a damn.

                          Shenzhen is full of dirty country bumpkins from Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi. The city's a mess – filthy, disorganized, with e-scooters whizzing around recklessly. The people are low-class, and it has the highest crime rate in the nation.
