Traveling to Shenzhen, China for the first time?

Coming to The Cross Border Matchmaker Event

Getting to the Hua Qiang Plaza hotel from Hong Kong? There are a few ways – you can check our full Hong Kong border guide for all the nitty gritty – but here is the quick summary / our recommendation –

We recommend these 2 routes:

  1. Bus from Wan Chai to Huanggang Border – and then take a taxi to the venue, can also do the subway system

To find the bus in Wan Chai – currently the new bus station is under construction – so it is on a street outside of Great Eagle Center

Cost is 50HKD to the border, then a taxi should be about 30 RMB

Bus from Wanchai is 24 hours, and leaves every 20-30 minutes. Time to border is about 1 hour.

  1. MTR to Lok Mau Chao in Hong Kong – walk across the border, and either take a taxi or a metro to Hua Qiang Bei – the hotel is in the middle of the area.
