Itinerary
Your first stop will be intricately designed Yu Yuan Garden, a classic creation of the Ming dynasty, and the ancient Shanghai Old Street, which is originated in the Qing dynasty. Then you can have a rest in an ancient Chinese tea house.
After the tea, you will be driven to the People Square where you can see the City Hall and surrounding buildings from outside. If you like museums, you can visit the Shanghai Museum there.
Traveling on, you will stroll along the Xintiandi in the Former French Concession, which is considered to be one of the most charming places in Shanghai for Chinese and foreigners.
In the afternoon, you will start from the Jade Buddha Temple, a sacred 19th-century structure built during the Qing Dynasty. Marvel at the majestic architecture of the temple and see the big one-piece jade Buddha.

About Shanghai
Shanghai is China's dazzling financial city on the Huangpu River, where a colonial-era waterfront faces a futuristic skyline and old lanes hide teahouses.
The Bund, a riverside promenade lined with grand banks and hotels from the early twentieth century, faces the towers of Pudong across the water, among them the Oriental Pearl Tower, the Jin Mao Tower and the twisting Shanghai Tower. The view is at its most dramatic after dark, when both banks light up and river boats glide between them.
Top-ranked sights in Shanghai: The Bund (Waitan), Yu Garden (Yuyuan), Shanghai French Concession.
