Bao’an District has entered into a new development stage of constructing “Coastal Bao’an, Famous Industry City, and Dynamic Region”. It will be an important part in Shenzhen City taking part in the competition of Pearl River Delta with other cities, with its favorable geographical location linking gold corridor of Guangdong and Hong Kong, and backbone heartland of Pearl River Delta.

As the northwest gateway of Bao’an District, Shajing Sub-district is located in the freshwater outfall of Pearl River to the sea. With its advantageous location and the cultivation techniques accumulated for hundreds of years by the oyster farmers, big and delicious “Shajing Oysters” are cultivated there. Nowadays, “Shajing Oysters” have been a famous cultural name card for Shenzhen, as well as a well-known national brand home and abroad, which have formed a unique “Oyster Culture” and make Shajing named as “land of Oyster”. Since 2004, Shajing Sub-district has held “Golden Oyster Festival” for many times which have been upgraded as a Guangdong provincial tourism and culture festival from 2007 and helps exhibit “the Oyster Culture” to people more widely. Besides “the Oyster Culture”, there are also many other intangible cultural resources, such as the ancestral culture, family school culture, and well culture, etc. Therefore, Shajing is a historical place with rich intangible cultural resources. As the cultural center of Shajing, West Shajing Central Area and East Waterlands Resort Area, with Shajing Street and Xinxu Street passing through, and where a large number of historical relics and styled architectures distributed, are the key areas for Bao’an to build a local cultural name card. But the surroundings, mainly urban villages and old industrial zones, are characterized by poor qualities of space, low public services capacities, and poor functions which need to be improved urgently. In order to bring the function of Shajing as a characteristic local cultural name card into play, it is going to start the functional improvement and urban transformation of West Shajing Central Area and East Waterlands Resort Area with the planning and construction of Shajing Golden Oyster Food Culture Town as the positioning, according to the instruction of Bao’an District Committee and Government.
