What makes One-Day Shanghai City Tour: Yuyuan Garden, Xintiandi and Huangpu River Cruise a unique experience ?

Time: 8:30am – 10am

This huge hall displaying miniatures of the city is an amazing place to visit. You can see the modern skyscrapers currently in existence as well as those planned for the future. Under the theme “City, Humanity, Environment and Development”, urban planning is an interesting and engaging topic throughout the world, relevant to city dwellers from any country. This unique glimpse of the present and future Shanghai can provide much food for thought, as well as enjoyment and a good overview of this often overwhelming city.

Time: 10:30am – 11:30am

Yuyuan Garden was first created in 1559 during the Ming Dynasty by Pan Yunduan as a private oasis for his father, the minister Pan En, in his dotage. The garden was the largest and most prestigious of its era in Shanghai, but unfortunately its great expense helped bankrupt the Pans.

Time: 14:00 – 14:30

After lunch, wander around at your leisure in the warren of streets hosting a variety of shops near the Yuyuan Garden.

The outdoor bazaar at Yuyuan Garden sells various souvenirs, arts and crafts. This area is liberally and colorfully decorated with Chinese lanterns and with animated life-sized figures (clockwork fantoccini) representing traditional Chinese lifestyle. Here, you can pause and have a taste of some interesting and typical Shanghai street food, while you take in the sights.

Time: 15:00-17:00

You will be taken to Xintiandi (Shikumen)— this is a must-see place you should find time to include when visiting Shanghai.

Xintiandi is famous because of its history and ancient beauty. Art exhibitions and other cultural activities are often organized to attract tourists and locals alike. It is recommended you take a seat and decide which is original and which is new over a cup of coffee after your walk .

Time: 18:00 – 18:40

Take a 40-minute cruise at around 6 pm, when the buildings on both sides of the Huangpu River are lit up, and see some fabulous sights – 19th century architecture on one side rubbing shoulders with 21st century skyscrapers on the other.
