Guangming New District (simplified Chinese: 光明新区; traditional Chinese: 光明新區; pinyin: Guāngmíng Xīn Qū), is one of seven districts in the city of Shenzhen. The district, bordering the city of Dongguan in the Northwest of Shenzhen, was created in 2007 by dividing parts of Bao'an District.
A major landslide occurred in Hengtaiyu Industrial Park, Guangming New District, on December 20, 2015. As of 21 December, it results in one death, 76 people missing and 16 hospitalizations. Waste materials generated from nearby construction works piled up into a hill which collapsed and consequently destroyed 33 buildings, the mud and debris covered an area greater than ten hectares (25 acres).
