About our Location – Shekou
Shekou (literally “Snake’s Mouth”) is an area at the tip of Nantou peninsula in Shenzhen and facing Lau Fau Shan of Hong Kong across Deep Bay.
It was formerly a customs station in Bao´an county and now belongs to Nanshan district of Shenzhen. On 31st January 1979, it became Shekou Industrial Zone developed solely by China merchants of Hong Kong, earlier than the formation of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone.
Since the 1980s, after foreign oil majors obtained concessions for oil exploration in the South China Sea, Shekou started serving as a base for a small contingent of foreign oil platform workers, since qualified personnel were not available locally. As a result of this first mover advantage in catering for mainly western tastes in housing, food and drink, entertainment and schooling, at a time when no alternatives were available in the area, Shekou gradually became home to the majority of the expatriate population working in and around Shenzhen.
In 2003, the local government, seeking to capitalize on the foreign flavour of the town, invested in a complete make-over of Sea World, turning it into a western-style entertainment area centered around the grounded Minghua (明华) ship, a 14.000 ton, 168 m long vessel built in 1962 as French president Charles De Gaulle´s private yacht, and purchased by China in 1973.
