Shanghai Travel
From the historic charm of the Bund to the soaring towers of Pudong, Shanghai uniquely combines old and new like no other city along the famous trade route. Walk along the Bund for sweeping views of the skyline, then dive into the futuristic world of the Shanghai Tower and Oriental Pearl TV Tower across the river. Explore Yu Garden, a classic example of Ming-era landscape design tucked within the bustling Old City.
Wander the leafy lanes of the Wukang Roda, filled with art deco architecture, stylish cafés, and hidden boutiques. Step back in time at Jing’an Temple, nestled among modern skyscrapers, or visit the Shanghai Museum in People’s Square for a deep dive into China’s cultural heritage. Whether Shanghai is a stop on a wider journey or your main destination, we’ll craft a trip that reflects your style and pace—helping you experience both the icons and the quieter corners that most travelers miss.
