Etymology
The spelling is borrowed from Chinese. Sen is not an expected on-reading of 圳 and may derive from 川's on-reading of sen.
Also, the character "圳" isn't included in the first Japanese encoding system, so the city name is commonly written as 深セン.
Proper noun
深圳 (hiragana しんせん, rōmaji Shinsen)
