List of tallest buildings in Shenzhen
, a major city and Special Economic Zone in Guangdong, China, is home to over 283 completed skyscrapers, making it the 2nd largest concentration in the world after neighbouring Hong Kong. The tallest building in Shenzhen is the Ping An Finance Centre, upon its opening in 2017. It is also currently the fourth tallest in the world. The second and tallest fully completed building in the city is the Kingkey Finance Tower. The third tallest building is Shun Hing Square, which stands with 69 stories. It was the tallest all-steel building in China at its completion in 1996. Shenzhen's high-rise building boom shows no signs of slowing down, with numerous proposals for skyscrapers taller than.
Skyscraper construction started in Shenzhen in 1978, at a time when the tallest building in the city was five stories tall. In the next decade, 300 high-rises were erected in the city, including the Guomao Building. It was the city's first skyscraper and was the tallest building in mainland China upon its opening in 1985. As Shenzhen's highrise construction boom progressed into the 1990s, the skyscrapers erected in the city became taller. In the decade spanning from 1996 to 2006, 18 buildings taller than were completed. The tallest of these is the Diwang Building, the city's first building to exceed in height. Most of Shenzhen's skyscrapers are concentrated in the Luohu, Futian and Nanshan districts. Shenzhen's skyscraper boom is attributed to its status as one of the fastest growing cities in the world.
