A brief introduction to Shanghai

Boasting more than 1,000 modern high-rises alongside ancient Chinese architecture, Shanghai is a bustling metropolis that perfectly weaves the old with the new.

Start your trip by visiting the city’s famed waterfront – the Bund, where you can enjoy stunning views of the city’s picturesque skyline. Gaze up and marvel at some of the world’s most well-known buildings and skyscrapers, including Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and the Jinmao Tower.

If you fancy delving into the historic side of the city, there are plenty of ancient temples to visit, including the City God Temple. Nearby is Yu Garden, which is home to the Exquisite Jade Rock, a 3.3 metre tall boulder that was believed to be a gift for the Huizong Emperor in the 1100s.

The French Concession is also a must-visit area while in Shanghai. This district is filled with tree-lined streets, cosy cafes, and artsy boutiques, and is renowned for its wide range of shops and restaurants.
