Default Do I need a Visa?

My family wants to go to Hong Kong this May. I know we don't have to get a Visa to do this. But we want to go to Shenzhen too. Do we need a Visa to go there?

Your replies will be appreciated.

Yes, you will need a visa to get into mainland China.

Found this article:

Obtaining a visa for China in Hong Kong

Q: Hi, can you tell me whether it is possible (for a European citizen) to obtain a visa for mainland China in Hong Kong? Where? And how long does it take?

A: It is relatively easy to get a China visa in Hong Kong (HK$ 180- 600, it depends on the kind of visa). Most of the travel agencies in Hong Kong provide this service, (1 or 2 days) a bit of service charge is probably worth the hassle to go to the authority yourself.

You can also apply for the visa yourself at the consulate; it is cheaper (prices start at HK$ 100), but it usually takes longer.
