Shenzhen and Hong Kong - Aug, 2018

A lot of my IoT related Startups friends told me that they are creating and assembling parts in Shenzhen. And, in my favorite podcast #rebuildfm, the guest said that 1-day trip to Shenzhen from Hong Kong was nice. Staying in Hong Kong. Why not? Just go there.

I took MTR to Lo Wu (Sheung Wan->Central->Mong Kok->Kowloon Tong->Lo Wu).

Immigration. There are two check points. Leaving from Hong Kong and entering to China. As a foreign passenger, procedure was manual and it took some time (it depends as same as at the airport).

Anyway, let's go to the Electronics market. I withdraw RMB with my credit card and purchased the ticket coin.

It's a great place to visit for computer geeks! Didn't buy anything though :P

Actually, I'm not so dedicated computer person.. My hobby is playing sports or hanging out with friends.. Then, I thought that Solutions Architect role is fit for me.. I just want to contribute to my customers in tech rather than creating innovative something..

At the food court, staff asked me WeChat Pay barcode but sorry I didn't have.. Paid with cash. Not oily and some vegetables. Side dish kimchi and pickles were nice.

Anyway, I had fun visiting variety shops.

Then, moved to the fashion town Laojie by using subway again. Subway in Shenzhen is convenient.
