深圳比香 港更干净吗

Shenzhen has gone through something of a massive renovation in the last ten years. For a long time Hon g Konger’s would often regard Shenzhen as a crime ridden dirty factory town notorious for scams, thieves, and prostitution. It was common for Hong Ko ng businessmen to have “second wives” or mistresses residing in the city.
深圳在过去十年里经历了一场大规模的改造。在很长一段时间里,香 港人通常认为深圳是一个到处是工厂的脏乱差城市,以诈骗、盗窃而臭名昭著
The city has embarked on major construction and renovation projects which have dramatically altered the landscape of the city. Tree-lined Boulevards with bicycle lanes predominate much of Nanshan area. Downtown Futian resembles the look and feel of many downtown North American Cities. Green leafy suburbs with posh real estate developments litter the outer districts. Mini Beach resorts line up along the coasts of Dapeng and Yantian districts. The overall cleanliness has improved dramatically with convoys of street cleaning trucks and armies of maintenance staff completing gardening and renovation projects. Not to mention the electric tax’s and buses that roam the streets.
深圳这个城市已经完成了重大的建设和改造工程,极大地改变了城市的面貌。
南山到处是林荫大道和自行车道。
福田市中心的外观已经可以与许多北美城市的市中心媲美了。
绿树成荫的郊区和如火如荼的房地产开发项目散落在郊区。
在大鹏新区和盐田区海岸线上排列着小型海滩度假胜地
随着街道清洁的车队和大批的维修人员完成了园艺和翻新工程,整体的清洁情况得到了显著改善。更不用说在街上穿梭的电动出租车和公共汽车了。
With these efforts the city’s authorities intend to project the image of Shenzhen being China’s high-tech capital and the future in terms of the development and progress of China. As for Ho ng Kong the current attitude amongst the populace and the government is one of complacency.
通过这些努力,深圳打算把自己塑造为中国高科技之都和未来的形象之都。至于香 港方面,市民和政府目前是自满自大

深圳比香 港干净多了
Dieter Mannekaert, lives in Hong Kong (2006-present)
Had you asked in 2006, I would’ve said, well… maybe not. Arriving in SZ from HK usually meant Lowu Luohu and Lok Ma Chau/Huang Gang, which were pretty creepy and dirty – although they’re better now. So the first impression was in the general neighbourhood of WTF.
如果你在2006年问我这个问题,我会说,也许不是。
以前从香 港去深圳,那里很恐怖很脏的,现在好多了。
But project Shenzhen has moved forward and FAST. I myself don’t recognize, at times, the Shenzhen city I first saw in 2006. And it’s not just the buildings. All buses and taxs have switched to electric. The air is so much better now.
然而,深圳的建设极为迅速。有时候,我自己都认不出2006年我第一次看到的深圳了。不仅仅是建筑,所有的公共汽车和出租车都换成了电动汽车。现在空气好多了。
Meanwhile, HK can be downright dirty, including downtown. The older the hood, the dirtier it is. The buildings are dumps, the aircons leak onto the pavement, I’ve seen rats the size of small fogs in Central… I live in a clean part of town, because it was redeveloped from scratch in the 1990s. And it still looks like the poor cousin of Shenzhen I can see from my windows.
对比起来,香港可能会非常脏,包括市中心。引擎盖越旧,越脏。建筑成为了垃圾场,空调漏水漏到人行道上,我在市中心见过青蛙大小的老鼠。
我住在城里一个干净的地方,那里是上世纪90年代从头开始重建的。
It’s not all rosy and nice in SZ, of course, but things have improved so much…
当然,深圳的一切也不是都那么美好,就是情况已经有了很大改善
This is what greets you when you arrive in Shenzhen.
当你到深圳的时候,你看到的是这样的!

It depends where you go to. Basically “Guannei/关内” is cleaner than Ho ngkong and “Guanwai/关外”. (关内=Urban area of Shenzhen; 关外=suburb area of Shenzhen, in which 关=border checkpoint sites, which had been abandoned for 20 years or so)
看你去哪里喽。一般来说,关内比香港和关外更干净
Some exceptions in Guannei/Urban area: Meilin (梅林), ili (西丽), Nantou (南头), Songshan (松坪山), Baishizhou (白石洲), Guangxa (岗厦). But it’s getting cleaner day by day.
关内有些地区例外,比如梅林、西丽、南头、松坪山、白沙洲、岗厦,不过这些地方也越来越干净了
Dirty zones in Guanwai/Suburb area: Sanhe (三和), Fanshen (翻身), and a lot.
关外比较差的地方是三和、翻身等
Again, if you go to Coco Park, it’s definitely cleaner than lots of area in HK; And if you go to Harbour City in Tsim Sha Tsui (尖沙咀) of HK, you don’t find dirty zones either.
如果你去可可公园,那里肯定比香港的很多地方干净;如果你去香港尖沙咀的海港城(尖沙咀),你也找不到脏的地方
My last time to HK was 2015 and my last visit to Shenzhen was in July, 2020, Shenzhen changes every day, so my memory might be out of date.
我上次去香港是在2015年,上次去深圳是在2020年7月,深圳每天都在变化,我的记忆可能已经过时了。
Rob Harris, Lived in China 7 years; extensively studied their literature
The last time I went to Shenzhen was 2012, and the answer was “oh good God, absolutely not by any measure!” Crossing the border from H ong Kong into Shenzhen was like step through a portal from Park Avenue to Somalia.
My friends who live there say the situation has changed.
我最后一次去深圳是在2012年,答案是:哦,天哪,绝对不是!
从香 港跨过边境进入深圳,就像从公园大道(Park Avenue)进入索马里一样。不过,我住在那里的朋友说现在已经今非昔比了。
Thomas Lee, Multinational Senior Executive
Sadly, the answer is : YES.
These are common in H ong Kong :
遗憾的是,答案是肯定的。这些在香 港很常见
