Literal meaning"Blessed fields"

Futian District(simplified Chinese:Phúc điền khu;traditional Chinese:Phúc điền khu;pinyin:Fútián Qū;Jyutping:fuk1tin4keoi1) is one of the nine districts comprising the city ofShenzhen,China. The district is home to the government and Municipal Committee of Shenzhen, as well as one of the city'scentral business district(CBD).

Name[edit]

There are two theories concerning the origin of the district's name:

  • From an inscription dating to theSong Dynasty(960–1297) which reads: "Lakes and mountains are blessed with fertile farmlands" (Hồ sơn ủng phúc, đồng ruộng rực rỡ).
  • Written records showing that people from Shangsha Village built houses in Songziling in 1192; their farmlands were cultivated in lattice shapes, which in Chinese is a homophone for "Futian" meaning "blessed fields".

History[edit]

Luohu Districtwas established in April 1979, one month after Shenzhen was promoted to city status. Futian, and another area called Fucheng (Phụ thành), became communes within the Luohu District.

Futian became part of the ShenzhenSpecial Economic Zoneafter it was designated in 1980. It then became a subdistrict under the district of Shangbu (Thượng bước).

Futian, along withNanshan,was promoted to district status in October 1990. The Shangbu district, which had governed the Futian subdistrict the previous decade, became a part of the Futian district. The district government was established onShennan Middle Road.

Rapid urbanization occurred in the late 20th century; the agricultural land which once made up a vast majority of Luohu had shrunk to an area of only 12.26 km2(4.73 sq mi) by 2003.[1]

Economy[edit]

As of 2022, the nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Futian District is 551.45 billion CNY (76.4 billion USD), second in the city behind neighboring Nanshan District. This figure is the third highest of all districts belonging to municipal-level cities in China. The Central Business District (CBD) of Shenzhen is a planned development project that began in the early 1990s. Located within the Futian district, it comprises an area of 607 hectares. The four sides of the district are delineated by Binhe Dadao, Lianhua Road, Xinzhou Road and Caitian Road.

Many office high-rises and government buildings are located in the CBD, some of which are prominent buildings in Shenzhen, such as theShenzhen City Hall(Civic Center), Shenzhen Library,Shenzhen Concert Hall,Shenzhen Development Bankbuilding and the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center. Located directly north of the CBD is Lianhuashan Park.

There are numerous skyscrapers in the CBD such as theSEG Tower,the Shum Yip Up Hills Twin Towers,China Merchants Bank Tower,the twin towers ofEast Pacific Center,and the 599 m (1969 ft)Ping An Finance Center,which is thesecond tallest building in Chinaandthe fourth tallest in the world.
