What makes a city more welcoming to international visitors? For Venezuelan content creator Rafael, Shenzhen's answer lies in technology.
As the city prepares to host the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting, he takes a closer look at how smart solutions are making travel around Shenzhen easier for overseas visitors.
From tapping international bank cards for metro rides, to English-language bus information and AI-powered translation devices, everyday journeys have become far more accessible. More than 7,000 smart translation devices have been deployed at key locations across the city, and over 5,000 taxis are equipped with AI translation tools supporting more than 140 languages.
At Shenzhen Airport, multilingual AI assistants and service robots are also helping visitors find their way around. For business travelers, tourists and APEC delegates alike, these innovations show how technology can turn small conveniences into a warmer welcome from this international city.
