• Qibao Old Street - As the sole ancient town within greater Shanghai, boasting a history of over a thousand years, Qibao is more than just a relic of ancient Chinese urban development. It transports visitors back in time through its rich history, culture, architecture, and local community. The town’s name is derived from the Qibao Temple. A wide array of snacks in Qibao Ancient Town will catch your eye as you stroll through the old town’s streets. Visitors will savor Shanghai’s traditional snacks and immerse themselves in the local lifestyle.
• Shanghai Zoo (Shanghai Dongwu Yuan) - Shanghai Zoo is a large, state-level zoo. It features not only animals native to China, such as giant pandas, golden monkeys, South China tigers, Manchurian tigers, Yangtze alligators, and elks, but also animals from around the globe, including giraffes, kangaroos, penguins, hippopotamuses, and sea lions. Visitors will explore the giant panda area in the Carnivore zone, which is fan-shaped and includes both an indoor exhibition area and an outdoor playground. The playground is adorned with trees, lawns, artificial mountains, and pools, providing a delightful environment for the giant pandas.
• Former French Concession - The Former French Concession in Shanghai offers a stark contrast to the bustling, modern metropolis filled with skyscrapers. It is a serene area with numerous European-style villas and early 20th-century buildings. This location is ideal for learning about the city’s history and unique charm while escaping the city’s hustle and bustle. Over time, the boundaries of this area have become indistinct.
• Xintiandi - Xintiandi is a tourist destination that preserves Shanghai’s historical and cultural essence while blending Chinese and Western influences. It is divided into northern and southern sections, with the south featuring modern architecture and the north showcasing Shikumen old buildings. This area, a mix of Shikumen and modern styles, has become a trendy pedestrian street in the city’s heart, representing the leisurely lifestyle of the city’s new generation. Outdoor cafés, bars, and romantic restaurants are abundant.
• Oriental Pearl Tower (Dongfang Mingzhu) - The Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower, located in Pudong Park in Lujiazui, stands at 468 meters (1,536 feet) and is the world’s sixth and China’s second tallest TV and radio tower. Its unique architectural design makes it one of the most captivating attractions. Visitors will explore the Municipal History Museum situated in the tower’s base. Double-decker elevators, accommodating up to fifty people and traveling at seven meters per second, transport visitors up and down the tower. During the swift ascent, elevator attendants provide an introduction to the TV Tower in both English and Chinese. The breathtaking city view from this height is truly awe-inspiring.
• Huangpu River - The Huangpu River separates two iconic yet distinct Shanghai landscapes: the modern skyscrapers of Pudong and 26 diverse architectural styles on the west side. At nightfall, visitors will embark on a one-hour cruise along the Huangpu River to enjoy the light show and stunning night views on both riverbanks, including the Bund, the Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and Jin Mao Tower.
