A Livable, Business-Friendly, and Beautiful City

A civilization may thrive if its natural surroundings thrive and will suffer if its natural surroundings suffer. A good natural environment is the most equitable public good and the most inclusive benefit for the people. Shenzhen is committed to developing a spatial layout, industrial structure, production mode, and lifestyle that conserve resources and protect the environment. It ranks among the top large and medium-sized cities in China by such metrics as air quality, energy consumption per unit of GDP, and per capita park green space in built-up areas. A better natural environment has become the backdrop for the city’s modernization. Moreover, compact urban development and the creation of sound and people-centered public service facilities lay the physical foundation for Shenzhen as a modern, livable, and business-friendly city.
