Ping'an International Financial Center

At nearly 600m height, its a true wonder of architecture, the 2nd tallest building in China and the 5th tallest in the world. You can go into floor 115 which, at more than 547m, is the tallest sky floor observation deck in the world. You have to book an entry ticket before which lets you enter at any time during the selected day. I booked on Trip.com app and paid around 190 yuan. Its recommended to book at least a day before your visit. The tour of the building was very memorable, experiencing the superfast lift and admiring the breathtaking view was worth every cent. There is also a little souvenir shop at the top, you should make use of that as its very hard to find any souvenir (like fridge magnets or post cards) anywhere else in the city.

The Free Sky observation deck is worth a visit if you are in the area. Tours are in chinese, explaining the nearby landmarks, the establishment of the financial center. There are also art exhibits and AR glasses as part of the experience.

This location is a must visit if you're in Shenzhen. The building is 599m tall (observation deck is at 547m). It obviously helps to go when the weather is good. The views from the top are spectacular.

Ping An Finance Center feels absolutely massive when you’re standing at the base. Looking straight up is almost dizzying — it’s so tall and powerful that you can spot it from far away, long before you arrive. Seeing it in person really puts the scale of the city into perspective.

Ping’an International Financial Center 平安国际金融中心 stands in Shenzhen like a giant glass question mark asking, “How tall is too tall?” Spoiler: Shenzhen says “just a bit taller please.” This skyscraper soars above the city skyline with the casual confidence of someone who knows they own the view. At 599 meters tall with 115 floors, it is the 4th‑tallest completed building in the world and 2nd-tallest in China, just behind Shanghai Tower. It dominates every angle, reflecting sunrises and sunsets back at the city like a very reflective middle finger to gravity. Inside you’ll find offices, observation decks, and luxury elevators that move with the urgency of rush hour ambition, and windows so big you can watch clouds make decisions about their career paths. Walking around the base feels like orbiting a shiny future where concrete meets ambition and everything seems possible until the elevator doors open and remind you that yes, you are still in a building and not actually in the clouds. Not exactly a secret spot or hidden gem. But if you appreciate modern architectural bravado, dizzying heights, and views that make your knees gossip with your brain, Ping’an International Financial Center quietly laughs at all other buildings and delivers a vertical experience that Shenzhen proudly calls its own.

Damn, what a great experience, everything I saw was really beautiful, I highly recommend going, but if you've already been to other towers in China, it won't be much different, there are a lot of things up there You can buy food, photos, souvenirs, and there's even a robot that makes coffee generated by AI, but the prices, like every tourist spot, are higher for Chinese standards, but nothing that will weigh on your budget

Ping’an is the current world No.5 tallest skyscraper in the world at 599m. The observatory is at level 116 and 117/118 is a restaurant. The observatory boast majestic views of the Shenzhen city and it also holds a Guinness world record for the highest glass floor cantilevered observation deck. Entry price was relatively okay at SGD32 per pax and the lift takes about 1 min to reach level 116. Overall, it was a good experience exploring the attraction and admiring the city views.

Beautiful. Went to eat at Inakaya on 115th floor. Sushi was good for China. Stop by Japanese restaurant on 115th for lunch or dinner. Great view and good fish there.
