- The Bund - Your tour guide will meet you at the airport exit at 08:30 a.m. or upon your flight’s arrival. You will then be transferred to the Bund to begin the exciting Shanghai Private Tour. The Bund, a renowned waterfront on the west bank of the Huangpu River, is considered a symbol of Shanghai. It showcases the city’s blend of historical charm and modern vibrancy, making it a must-see attraction. Here, you’ll see 26 buildings of various architectural styles, including the Peace Hotel, Shanghai Customs House, and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. You’ll also encounter the Sculpture on the Bund, Monument to the People’s Heroes, Huangpu Park, and Waibaidu Bridge, along with impressive high-rises across the river. Next, we’ll head to Pudong New Area to enjoy panoramic views of Shanghai from the Shanghai World Financial Center. - Shanghai World Financial Center - Located in the heart of Lujiazui in Pudong, adjacent to Shanghai Tower and Jin Mao Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center (SWFC) is currently the city’s second tallest skyscraper. Its exterior resembles a bottle opener, which is also its nickname. For visitors, it is a popular attraction featuring sightseeing observatories and the Park Hyatt Hotel. The three observation decks on the 94th, 97th, and 100th floors offer unique experiences, with the 100th floor being the highest observatory in the world, featuring transparent glass-walled walkways. Afterward, you’ll be transferred to Yuyuan Old Street to enjoy traditional Chinese dim sum, Xiaolongbao, for lunch. - Yuyuan Old Street - Historically known as Miaoqian Dajie, Shanghai Old Street is a historic business street that combines tourist attractions, shops, entertainment, and cultural exhibits. Its rich commercial background and social appeal stem from being home to the city’s earliest bank, gold shop, jeweler’s store, wine shop, and tea house. Exploring the old alleys of Shanghai offers a glimpse into the city’s traditional culture and the daily life of its residents. Next, you’ll visit the classic Yu Garden. - Yu Garden (Yuyuan) - You’ll then tour Yu Garden, originally built in 1559 during the Ming Dynasty by Pan Yunduan as a comfort for his father, Minister Pan En, in his old age. Construction was delayed for nearly twenty years due to Pan Yunduan’s appointment as governor of Sichuan. Despite its small size, Yu Garden features all the elements of a classical Chinese garden, including pavilions, halls, rockeries, ponds, and cloisters, each with unique characteristics. The garden is divided into six areas, each with its own style. Next, we’ll transfer to the South Bund Soft Spinning Material Market. - South Bund Soft Spinning Material Market - Known as the Shanghai “Fabric Market,” this market is home to hundreds of tailors and seamstresses and is the top destination for bespoke clothing in the city. Many visitors to Shanghai recommend the South Bund Spinning Material Market as a must-visit. Here, you can choose from a variety of fabrics and work with a tailor to create custom clothing. The market’s shops often use multiple languages on their billboards, as 80% of the customers are foreigners. The market’s focus on tailoring meets the needs of both Chinese and international customers, offering unique clothing options. - China Art Museum - Housed in the former China Pavilion of the Expo 2010 Shanghai, an upside-down red pyramid, the museum is worth visiting for its architecture and city views alone. It showcases masterpieces by modern and contemporary Chinese artists, with works spanning various periods and numerous temporary exhibitions, including international touring shows. The museum’s highlight is a multimedia replica of the famous painting ‘Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival,’ which vividly depicts life across different social sectors a thousand years ago. We’ll then visit the site of the Shanghai Expo 2010, a park with various exhibits on Chinese culture. Finally, you’ll enjoy a comfortable transfer back to the airport or your nearby hotel. Cherish your memories and bid farewell.
