Shanghai's Must-see Attractions
Nanjing Road, Shanghai's 5th Ave.
We'll start our day tour with a walk to Nanjing Road. Shanghai's premier shopping street. Open-air bars, abstract sculptures, and lingering sounds from street musicians enhance evening strolls. A trackless sightseeing train provides a comfortable tour of the night-transformed pedestrian street. Flashing neon signs illuminate the magnificent buildings and spangle the night skyline of this lively city.
The Bund & River Cruise
The Bund is a waterfront embankment and has been regarded as the symbol of Shanghai for hundreds of years. It affords marvelous views across the river of the Pudong district and its numerous towers. The most famous and attractive sight which is at the west side of the Bund is the 52 various buildings of different architectural styles including Gothic, Baroque, Romanesque, Classicism and the Renaissance. At night the Bund and the surrounding skyscrapers are all lit up, making for a fabulous night on the town! All these calls are seen as we'll take the Huangpu River cruise after we walk along the Bund.
The Observatory Deck at World Financial Center
Shanghai World Financial Center rises above Pudong and offers elevated city views. The itinerary includes an observation area on the 97th floor and a 55-meter glass corridor on the 100th floor. Confirm the observation facilities included in your program.
Yuyuan Garden
Yuyuan Garden is a famed classical garden, and even though it may be small, it contains numerous pavilions, halls, rockeries, ponds and cloisters, and all have unique characteristics. There are six main scenic areas in the garden: Sansui Hall, Wanhua Chamber, Dianchun Hall, Huijing Hall, Yuhua Hall, and the Inner Garden. Each area features several scenic spots within its borders.
