1. A Sanctuary of Serenity and Artistic Mastery Unlike many historical temples, the Jade Buddha Temple is renowned not for its age, but for its world-famous spiritual treasures. Built in 1882 to house two exquisite jade Buddha statues brought from Burma, it remains a deeply active monastery and a haven of peace amidst the urban bustle. The Jade Buddha Temple offers a unique combination of breathtaking artistic beauty and a deeply tranquil, working monastic environment. It's a must-visit for those seeking a moment of reflection and to witness one of Shanghai's most cherished cultural gems.

This magnificent mile-long waterfront promenade showcases a stunning collection of 52 grand buildings from the 1920's and 1930's, once housing the world's greatest banks, trading houses, and clubs. This is why it was known as the 'Wall Street of the East.' It's the perfect symbol of Shanghai itself: a city forever looking forward, but built upon a rich and powerful history.

About Shanghai

Shanghai är Kinas bländande finansstad vid Huangpufloden, där en kolonialtida strand möter en futuristisk silhuett och gamla gränder gömmer tehus.

Bund, en flodpromenad kantad av ståtliga banker och hotell från början av 1900-talet, vetter mot tornen i Pudong över vattnet, bland dem Oriental Pearl Tower, Jin Mao Tower och det vridna Shanghai Tower. Vyn är som mest dramatisk efter mörkrets inbrott, när båda stränderna lyses upp och flodbåtar glider mellan dem.

Top-ranked sights in Shanghai: The Bund (Waitan), Yu Garden (Yuyuan), Shanghai French Concession.
