Hello everyone,

1) Could anyone here render me the comprehensive guide on how to get Senzhen (SZ) from Hong Kong (HK)?

2) My second worried is how shall I obtain the visa my myself? B'cos I will go to HK on 9 March 05 and plan to enter SZ on 10 March 05 either by train or bus. Could I get my visa at the border myself?

Thank you for your help and advise.

Best regards,
chaifs

How to get to Shenzhen from Hong Kong: you can take both KCR or bus.You can apply for the visa when you are in Kong Kong.

For the visa details, you can ask LESAIGNEUR, he is a French who now lives in HK, and know everything about HK.^_^

Hi kelvin,

Thank you for the generousity extended to me and I will write to you shortly after this.


Hi ANTHEA,

I also need to thank you for your precious info.. Could you tell me where to catch the bus, if I were to take bus? Have you heard of any van (12pax) which also provide such a service to Shenzhen and it is a little bit more comfortable?

Rgds,

You could get a 5 days visa for [Shenzhen only]at the Lo Wu border crossing.

Hello LESAIGNEUR,

I am glad to receive your response. If you don't mind and allow me to ask further.

1) How long will it take for one to get the 5 days visa at the Lo Wu border? If it is always long queue than I would have to go there earlier.

2) How about the question I posted to ANTHEA earlier on? Sound like this, Question : Could you tell me where to catch the bus, if I were to take bus? Have you heard of any van (12pax) which also provide such a service to Shenzhen and it is a little bit more comfortable?)

Thank you.

Hello LESAIGNEUR,

As I'll stay in HK for quite a while. Which shopping centre is highly recommended by you in term cheap and genuine product of Sony Camcorder accessaries?

When is the best time to go to The Peak?

Where to find a famous bookstore in HK?

Where to find a well known bible related store?

I hope you can assist me in this. Thank you.
