Highlights

Important:This tour is TIP-BASED,the amount you paid at booking is only to reserve the spots, each person gives the guide at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate, the RECOMMENDED TIPS:150-300yuan(20-40usd/Euro) per person,depending on satisfaction with the tour. What better way to explore this great city than by having an indigenous inhabitant tell you stories about the history and evolution of this great city! Born and lived all my life in Shanghai, went through the bad and good times,still finding new inspirations. Traveled to multiple countries, Wish to share my native city and help people discover the best-kept secrets that have made me love this city myself! The French Concession is the area of Shanghai that French government administered from 1849-1943. The tree-lined avenues and the many fine old houses still retain an air of the "Paris of the East". In particular, the many wrought iron fences and stair railings will look alike Paris.

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.
