At the Lo Wu Shopping center, top floor, great "Yam-cha" (Dim sum restaurants) can be found at very reasonable prices.
And yes, remember to always bargain during your shopping spree at the shopping center. ENJOY : )

My visits to Shenzhen have been limited to very intense shopping excursions at the Lowu Centre - a 10-minute walk from the hotel.
Lowu is a great place to have clothes tailored at bargain prices. Bring your own favourite pieces to be copied, take along some clear pictures of what you'd like or flip through the hundreds of magazines the tailors have at their stall. There's also a huge fabric market on the fifth floor so once you know what you'd like made, you can have fun choosing material. Be prepared to bargain!
Massage is another service offered at Lowu and you generally need one after a few hours shopping. I'd recommend Jian Fu Mei Massage Centre on the fourth floor.
Then there are all the shops selling bags, shoes, jewellery and anything else you can think of. The day will be over before you know it and you'll be glad the hotel is only a short walk away.

We went to Window of the World which is about half an hour drive from our hotel. It was good but not that good. You can pass it. The Dong Men market will be useful for you if you know what you are looking for, otherwise do not bother because there are so many shops to confuse you. We missed Chinese Folk Culture Village which is located near Window of the World though. We think that one might be worth seeing.

The popular LuoHu Commercial Centre is within walking distance from the Century Plaza Hotel.
Shopping at Dongmen and HuaQiangBei (North) Road is fantastic. The Coach Station which is located at the basement of LuoHu Commercial Centre provides travel to cities in Guangdong, the ticket office is at the 1st level of LuoHu Commercial Centre.

Disco: FACE, COLOURS, MICHELLE House. Restaurants: a lot of them are pretty good. go for the big ones if you're not used to dining in small shops. Prices are reasonable.

I was in Shenzhen so many times but it is not interesting place for vacation, it is just for business. If you want to take a rest the better choice is Zhuhai or Foshan.
