A Brief introduction to Shanghai
A captivating blend of old and new, Shanghai is one of China’s most modern metropolises and boasts over 1,000 high-rises, beautiful ancient temples, and scintillating Art Deco architecture.
We recommend starting your trip with a visit to the Bund, where you will be able to enjoy gorgeous views of the city’s breathtaking skyline. While here, you can see some of the world famous skyscrapers Shanghai is known for, including the Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and the Jinmao Tower.
To delve into the city’s intriguing history, visit landmarks such as the City God Temple of Shanghai and the adjoining Yu Garden, which was built almost 500 years ago during the Ming Dynasty. This iconic attraction is also home to the Exquisite Jade Rock, a 3.3 metre high boulder that was said to be a gift for the Huizong Emperor in the 1100s.
For a bit of culture, the French Concession is a must-visit as it is brimming with tree-lined streets, quaint cafes, and trendy boutiques.
