UpperHills深业上城

Futian mall with a rooftop village of low-rise shops and sky bridges into two parks

UpperHills (深业上城) is the mixed-use complex by Shum Yip Group on Huanggang Road in Futian, opened in 2018 between Lianhuashan Park and Bijiashan Park. Below the office towers sits a conventional mall, but the part people come for is on the roof: a 'LOFT town' of more than 20 three- and four-storey buildings arranged like a small village, painted in reds, oranges and yellows with a nod to Mondrian.

The rooftop streets hold around 90 shops, cafés and restaurants, and two elevated walkways, about 700 metres together, link the complex to both parks to form roughly a kilometre of car-free route. That makes it an easy place to combine a walk up Lianhuashan with lunch and some shopping, and on weekends the plazas fill with pop-up markets and food events.

It is also one of Shenzhen's denser clusters of 'firsts': the world's first MUJI three-in-one (store, MUJI Diner and MUJI Hotel), a Galeries Lafayette, a Sony Store and the Mandarin Oriental. By March 2025 the developer counted more than 360 brands across the project.

Time needed

2–4 hours, more if you add a park walk

• Pair it with Lianhuashan Park: walk up to the Deng Xiaoping statue in the morning, then cross the sky bridge to the rooftop for lunch.
• Weekends are busiest and most likely to have markets; weekdays are calmer if you are bringing small children.
• The cinema is cheap by Hong Kong standards, and CINITY tickets sell out first for big releases, so book ahead on Maoyan or Taopiaopiao.
• Galeries Lafayette member points work in Shanghai too, but vouchers do not transfer between the two stores.
