"LuoHu Commercial City"  is the first major shopping center / district you'll find as soon as you cross the border into Shenzhen from the train. As you exit customs you'll walk out into a huge outdoor courtyard. If you go ahead then off to your right you'll find the entrance to the shopping center. It's not obvious to spot at first so just watch for where people are entering and exiting. The mall is in a sleek blue glass building at the exit of the Chinese border crossing.

The center itself is five levels high and apparently the quality of goods improves with the higher the level. Level five is where all the tailors and clothing shops are, and there are a maze of them. The center also sells knock-off copies of electronics, camera and computer related gear (complete with copy-cat labels).  The center also sells jewelry, toys, bags, shoes, cellphone accessories and so on. You need to bargain hard (about 1/3 of the original price and expect that everything is fake, especially Gucci, Chanel etc) Also be aware of pickpockets everywhere!

How to get there?

Address:  Luohu border crossing

Subway is most convenient if you are already in Shenzhen. Just take the subway till the end of the line.
