Kunsthal (Art Hall) KAdE doesn’t have a collection of its own, but it puts on a new exhibition every few months on modern art, architecture, design and everything visual. The art hall is located in the Eem House and has a special atmosphere that lovers of architecture will certainly appreciate.

Recharge your batteries with a traditional Arab bath experience — rotating between hot and cold pools, steam rooms, and optional massages. The space is calm and atmospheric, with arches, mosaics, and soft lighting that make it feel miles away from the city, even though you’re right in the centre. Good spot for a proper reset after a long day of sightseeing.

Around 90 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Shenzhen, Dapeng Fortress stands as a time capsule from the Ming Dynasty. This 600-year-old walled military village was built to protect the region from pirates, and much of its original structure remains intact. Walking through the fortress, you’ll encounter ancient fortifications, narrow alleys, and sturdy watchtowers. In 2007, Dapeng Fortress was recognised as part of UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage for its cultural significance. Today, it’s a place where you can step back into history, explore the centuries-old architecture, and imagine life as it was when pirates roamed the waters just off the coast.
