Shenzhen Tian Gong Que Space Park 2026: 21 Themed Experience Zones, Real Rocket Debris (Luohu Sungang, Tickets and Transport)

The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area finally has its own space-themed park. Located in Sungang, Luohu, Shenzhen, the "Tiangong Que Space Science Exploration and Art Museum" (Tiangong Que Space Park for short) officially opened on 10 September 2026. It is the Greater Bay Area's first immersive space exploration centre built around "space technology + digital art + space culture". The venue covers more than 3,800 square metres and is planned around 21 themed experience zones, and it became a new hotspot for Shenzhen parents and children the moment it opened.

This guide sets out clearly: the address, metro exit, tickets, opening hours, what there is to do inside, what ages it suits, and the places around Sungang you can visit along the way, so you can plan a half-day trip the moment you cross the border at Luohu Checkpoint.

1. What is Tiangong Que Space Park?

Tiangong Que was created by Star Space (Beijing) Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd., and its focus is "hardcore space technology you can touch and feel". Unlike traditional static space exhibition halls, it takes you through a mission-based route: on entry you become a "trainee astronaut", collect a mission handbook, and follow the path of rocket launch → satellite orbit insertion → space station life → lunar exploration → Mars expedition.

There are three must-see core exhibits:

• Genuine rocket debris: the real thing, bearing the original scorch marks from an actual spaceflight mission, viewable up close.
• 1:1 replica of the Tianhe core module of China's space station: a complete recreation of the astronauts' living and working environment in orbit, where you can also simulate operating the instruments inside the module.
• Shenzhou 7 extravehicular spacesuit: a spacesuit once used on an extravehicular mission, with its life-support system displayed on site.

There are also other special zones such as the lunar base "Guanghan Palace", a panoramic magic-light dome cinema (which simulates the physical sensation of weightlessness in space and planetary landings), and a satellite command and control centre (where teams work together to simulate the whole launch process). The venue designs its talks and missions by age: younger children start with hands-on experiences, while secondary school students engage with more complete engineering principles.

2. Address, transport, opening hours and tickets

A reminder: tickets are divided into adult day passes, concession tickets and parent-child tickets, and who qualifies for concessions and on which dates is subject to what the ticketing mini-programme shows in real time. The venue allows multiple entries on the same day, so you can spend half a day there with children, go out for a meal and come back in.

3. Which checkpoint is the smoothest to cross at?

All three main checkpoints will get you there, but Luohu Checkpoint is the most direct:

• Luohu Checkpoint: from Luohu Station take Metro Line 1 to Grand Theatre Station, change to Line 7 to Hongling North Station, about 20–25 minutes in total.
• Futian Checkpoint: from Lok Ma Chau Station take Line 4, change to Line 7 to Hongling North Station, about 35 minutes.
• Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint: from Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station take Line 13, then change to Line 9 to Hongling North Station; the journey is longer (about 50 minutes), so it is best combined with an itinerary in Nanshan.

Sungang itself is a well-established commercial district not far from Luohu Checkpoint, so the ideal plan is: cross at Luohu → go straight to Hongling North → visit the space centre → eat and shop around Sungang along the way.

4. Half-day family route in Sungang (space centre + surroundings)

Besides the newly opened space centre, Sungang has several spots you can visit in a day, enough to put together a half-day trip. The space centre itself is an indoor venue, so it works just as well on a rainy day, and with the surrounding malls and restaurants, an afternoon there is very comfortable.

Sungang Mixc Food Market (Luohu, Exit A, Sungang Station, Metro Line 7)

A food-themed mall under China Resources Mixc Lifestyle, with plenty of restaurant choices; it is the handiest place to eat after the space centre, and Sungang Station is only one or two stops from Hongling North Station.

Sungang Art Exhibition Centre (Luohu, Sungang Station, Metro Line 7)

A long-established Shenzhen wholesale market for handicrafts and home decorations; worth a wander if you want cheap homeware and ornaments. At wholesale markets, remember to compare prices first.

Honghu Park (Luohu, Honghu Station, Metro Line 7)

A free park with a large lotus pond and green spaces; perfect for an autumn stroll and for letting children burn off energy, and only one metro stop from Sungang Station.

5. Practical tips

• The space centre is an indoor venue, so it works just as well on a rainy day and is a good choice for wet weather in Shenzhen.
• Weekends and holidays are busier, so it is best to arrive when it opens (09:00), or go on a weekday for the most comfortable visit.
• Pick up the mission handbook on entry and follow the route; children get much more involved that way.
• The dome cinema and some interactive zones have queues, so check the day's schedule as soon as you arrive.
• Opening hours, ticket prices and who qualifies for concessions are subject to the latest announcements from the "Shenzhen Tiangong Que Space Park" WeChat mini-programme and official channels.

6. How is Tiangong Que different from other Shenzhen parks?

Shenzhen already has large theme parks such as Happy Valley, Window of the World, Splendid China and the Safari Park, but these focus on rides and large-scale scenery, mostly outdoors. Tiangong Que takes the "indoor science education + immersive experience" route: smaller in scale but more focused in theme, more like a space exploration centre you can walk through, play in and learn from. For families interested in space, or looking for an indoor spot for children (rain-proof and heat-proof), it suits better than a ride-based park.

What else is there to eat nearby?

Sungang has a dense cluster of restaurants: Sungang Mixc Food Market focuses on speciality dining and is the most convenient place to go after the centre; for cheap stir-fries and noodles, the street shops around Sungang Station and Hongling North Station also offer plenty of choice. For late-night snacks, heading back from Sungang towards Luohu, chain supper spots such as Muwu Barbecue and Li Xiaotai Barbecue stay open until the early hours, so you won't go hungry even if you're out late.

7. Nanshan add-on: Shenzhen Space Museum (Zhongjian Aerospace)

If the children still want more after Tiangong Que, Nanshan District has another space-themed attraction, the "Shenzhen Space Museum" (operated by Zhongjian Aerospace). It sits at the opposite end of the city from Tiangong Que, so you can pick one depending on which checkpoint you use:

• Shenzhen Space Museum: 13 Haiyuan 2nd Road, Shahe Subdistrict, Nanshan District. The venue has 4 floors covering more than 100 exhibits, two-thirds of which are interactive: Floor 1, "Stargate", introduces astronomy for beginners; Floor 2, "Heavy Equipment of the Heavens" and "Tracing the Stars", displays Long March rocket models and deep-space probes; Floor 3, "Flying Heroes", has astronaut training experiences, a space station model, a "Moon Walk" and "Mars Rover Driving"; Basement 1, "Space Club", has rocket assembly workshops and educational courses. The museum also has a dome projection system.
• Tickets and booking: about ¥198 per person, purchasable via the "Zhongjian Aerospace" WeChat mini-programme; some VR experiences require separate booking, and flash photography is not allowed inside.
• Transport: Exit E, Shenzhen Bay Park Station, Metro Line 9, or Exit D, OCT Station, Metro Line 1, then walk; drivers can park at the OCT Harbour shopping centre car park. From Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint it is only a few metro stops, making it the most convenient of the three checkpoints.
• Pair it with: right next to the Space Museum are the OCT Harbour shopping centre and the Ocean Dream Museum, so after the museum you can stay for a meal and a water show, which fills an afternoon; those arriving via Luohu or Futian Checkpoint should allow an extra 40–50 minutes of travel.

A reminder: Tiangong Que (Sungang, Luohu) and the Shenzhen Space Museum (Nanshan) are two different venues, so don't tap the wrong one in Amap. Doing both in one day would require a full day, so it's best to choose one: enter via Luohu Checkpoint → Tiangong Que; enter via Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint → Space Museum. Tickets, opening hours and booking arrangements on both sides are adjusted from time to time, so check the latest announcements on the official mini-programmes before you set off.
