Shenzhen (Chinese: 深圳)([ʂə́n.ʈʂə̂n] ( listen)) is a city in Guangdong province, China. It is just north of Hong Kong. It has a subtropical climate.

People speak Mandarin and the Guangzhou dialect of Cantonese in Shenzhen.

Until recently, Shenzhen was a fishing village with just over 30,000 people. In 1980, under the leadership of Deng Xiaoping, Shenzhen became one of China's Special Economic Zones (SEZ). It was in this city where China first experimented with capitalism. Since then, its population has grown to about 10.6 million people.
