Step into this classical Jiangnan-style garden from the Ming Dynasty and travel back to the elegance of old Shanghai. With its exquisite pavilions, winding bridges, serene ponds, and intricately crafted rockeries, every corner reflects the artistry and poetic charm of traditional Chinese landscaping. It’s a tranquil oasis in the heart of the city, offering a glimpse into the leisurely life of ancient scholars.

Oriental Pearl Tower (Dongfang Mingzhu)

Ascend this iconic Shanghai landmark and enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the Huangpu River from the city’s highest vantage point. On one side, the historic Bund showcases a century of architectural heritage; on the other, the Lujiazui financial district dazzles with its modern skyscrapers—where history meets the future. Dare to step onto the transparent glass-bottomed walkway for a thrilling skywalk experience.

Shanghai Temple Of the Town God (Chenghung Miao)

This is the vibrant heart of Shanghai’s old town, bursting with authentic local culture. Pay a visit to the historic temple, then immerse yourself in the lively surrounding streets filled with traditional snacks, handicrafts, and time-honored shops. Stroll across the Zigzag Bridge, admire the Mid-Lake Pavilion, and experience the bustling energy of old Shanghai at its most genuine.

The Bund (Wai Tan)

Known as the “Museum of International Architecture,” the Bund is a living testament to Shanghai’s modern history.

Across the Huangpu River, the futuristic skyline of Lujiazui, with landmarks like the Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai Tower, and Jin Mao Tower, creates a striking contrast of old and new, day and night
