Free Sky Observation Deck: Your Ultimate Guide to Shenzhen’s Pinnacle View

As Shenzhen’s tallest building and a global landmark, Ping An Finance Centre houses Free Sky Observation Deck on its 116th floor. The 547.6-meter-high venue features the world’s highest cantilevered glass viewing platform, certified by Guinness World Records, delivering an exhilarating floating-in-the-clouds experience.

Reach the deck in just 55 seconds via the multimedia OLED observation elevator, which operates at 10 meters per second. The elevator’s built-in visuals trace Shenzhen’s rapid transformation, setting the tone for your visit. Once upstairs, the 360° viewing hall offers unobstructed views of Futian CBD, Shenzhen Bay, Wutong Mountain, and even Hong Kong’s New Territories on clear days.

Immersive highlights include the 3D naked-eye zone with sky screen projections of seasonal changes and zodiac constellations, plus the VR area’s “PAFC Roller Coaster” for thrilling inter-tower rides. A green-screen photo studio lets you capture unique high-altitude shots, while a café and souvenir shop provide convenient amenities.

Tickets are cheaper when booked online. Students, seniors, and disabled visitors enjoy discounts with valid IDs, and children under 1.2 meters enter free. Take Metro Line 1 or 3 to Shopping Park Station (Exit D), a 5-minute walk away. Visit around sunset for the best views—daytime cityscapes, golden sunsets, and twinkling night lights all in one trip.
