This is modern Shanghai. It features some of the tallest buildings in the world along with their observation decks - Jinmao Tower Shanghai Tower, World Financial Center. The area also includes some of Shanghai's top malls (Brand Mall and IFC), an iconic Apple Store, the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, museums and more.

This garden dates back to 1559 during the Ming Dynasty. A classic Chinese Garden rich in history, you'll see a wide range of halls, statues, rock structures, water features as well as the famous Grand Rockery and Exquisite Jade Rocks.

Confucius Temple

​The Confucius Temple was founded during the Yuan Dynasty, when Shanghai was just a small fishing village. It was also the most prestigious learning institution, combining a spiritual temple with a top-rated school. A beautiful and serene site of gardens, halls, statues and an amazing complimentary tea ceremony.

Traditional Tea Ceremony

Chinese tea culture refers to how tea is prepared as well as the occasions when people consume tea in China. Tea culture in China differs from that in European countries like Britain and other Asian countries like Japan, Korea, Vietnam in preparation, taste, and occasion when it is consumed. Tea is still consumed regularly, both on casual and formal occasions. In addition to being a popular beverage, it is used in traditional Chinese medicine as well as in Chinese cuisine.

Former French Concession

​This bustling, lifestyle center in Puxi consists of traditional mid-19th century shikumen ("stone gate") houses on narrow alleys, book stores, cafes and restaurants, and shopping malls. Xintiandi has an active nightlife on weekdays as well as weekends. It is also the most expensive place to live in China and is home to the Chinese elite and executive expats.

​The Bund

The Shanghai Bund has dozens of historical buildings, lining the Huangpu River, that once housed numerous banks, trading houses and consulates from all over Europe, Asia and the United States. The area highlights Shanghai's western influence in architecture and culture and today offers a beautiful walkway along the Huangpu River while learning about Shanghai's history.
