Program details
This half- day tour will take you to the must-see sites of the city. From the waterfront of the Huangpu River on the Bund to the classic Yuyuan Garden in the old district. Feel the French atmosphere in the French Concession district and pick up some handcrafts in the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Store. The tour concludes in Xin Tian Di area where you can enjoy a drink at one of the many stylish bars.
Begin with a visit to the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront, well known for its grand display of colonial- era architecture, where you'll enjoy the wonderful view of both sides of the Huangpu River. Then you will head over to the Yuyuan Garden, a classic creation of the Ming Dynasty. These manicured and beautifully landscaped gardens are awe-inspiring and provide a wonderful antidote to the busy city streets outside their walls. Streets such as the Shanghai Old Street which had its origins in the Qing Dynasty and retains some of the architecture of this era with upswept eaves and traditional use of colour with red poles, pink walls and black roofs.
Afterwards you drive around in the former French Concession which still feels like the ‘Paris of the East’ with its Tudor mansions and tree-lined avenues. Take the opportunity to buy a souvenir at a stop by the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Store. End the tour in the stylish nightlife district Xin Tian Di where you can rest in one of the many boutiques, pubs, and restaurants. You are free to have a couple of drinks at a venue of your choice, or head back to your hotel with the group.
