TAXIS Taxis are readily available and not expensive. There are three colours for taxis: Red taxis can operate anywhere in the city. Blue taxis are electric. They’re bigger and more comfortable but cheaper. Green taxis are for outside the former SEZ only. Taxi flag fall is $10 for the first three kilometres. This rises to $16 late at night. It is hard to think of an instance where the fare will exceed $50. There is also a $3 fuel surcharge. This does not apply to electric taxis. Make sure you have the names of both your destination and your return

EUROPEAN CITY for SHENZHEN This is big bulk shopping IKEA has its South China headquarters here. Other European retailers are British home building and renovation store B&Q, and French sports chain Decathlon. The German store Metro is also here. Above Decathlon is a large Sundan store, which sells electrical appliances, household goods and a large range of electronics. Yes, we sometimes have to be restrained in Sundan. Faced with so many choices in consumer electronics at ridiculously low prices, the spirit may be willing but the flesh is exceeding weak. Metro is one of the new wave European food outlets

TRAPS FOR YOUNG PLAYERS You know that it’s called the Hilton or the Marriot or the Ritz Carlton and, as an experienced world traveller, you may think you may think such names are universally understood. Wrong. In Chinese, hotel names, even proprietary names, rarely bear any resemblance whatsoever to their corresponding names in English. Make sure you have the name of your hotel in Chinese characters before you attempt to communicate it to a taxi driver. If you say its name in English, he will not understand. LUOHU Five Star Hotels Luohu Shangri-La Hotel This is perhaps the best-known hotel

HOLIDAY PLAZA SHENZHEN The Holiday Plaza complex includes retail shopping, a movie theatre, and skating rink. It is also home to the luxurious five-star hotel, The Westin Shenzhen Nanshan. As one of the newer malls, Holiday Plaza has a high proportion of international brands among its outlets, including Toys R Us, the fashion chains ZARA Spanish and H&M Swedish. But it’s all just that bit bigger and flasher than elsewhere. The Ole supermarket in the basement has Shenzhen’s most expensively filled trolleys. For food, don’t go past Din Tai Fung, Taiwan’s famous jiaozi chain 0755 8629 8000 which has a

Buses can be crowded at peak hour when office workers are commuting. Off-peak, if one bus is crowded, the following one may not be. Bus drivers are compensated on numbers of passengers so they race along the road, competing to get to the next bus stop first. And remember, our comments on public courtesy on the Metro also apply on buses. Stand up for children and old people but do not delay in sitting down in any seat which becomes vacant, otherwise you will never get a seat. The bus terminal at Luohu is situated a five minute walk from

Interlaken OCT Hotel Is it something about oriental culture? And, if so, what? We don’t see a chapter in Confucius that says that only in China or Japan could you expect to have an Austrian Alps inspired hotel. OK it’s high at about 300 metres above sea level. But don’t get carried away and go out in your furs in high summer. Or most of winter for that matter. Once you get into the spirit of OCT East’s Mountain theme, this is extremely luxurious and just plain terrific. Perfect for a weekend at the beach, the theme parks and the

Intercontinental Shenzhen Yes, we like elegantly themed hotels in Shenzhen and this is another. Spanish this time with toreador hats, flamenco skirts and a Spanish galleon out the front, which must be five times as big as the biggest galleon ever built. We used to stay here in the primordial times when this was the Shenzhen Bay Hotel and the change is magnificent. The hotel has 540 rooms and 77 suites. It has several Spanish restaurants and a Brazilian restaurant, which is to every other Brazilian restaurant in Shenzhen as the Ritz is to McDonald’s. We love the real Thai
