About this activity
Get an insider's perspective of China's superstar city — from bustling bazaars to chic boutiques — as you witness Shanghai's imperial opulence and avant-garde architecture.
Explore one of China's finest imperial gardens, known for its attention to minute detail and classic landscape architecture.
Then browse for various crafted goods at the bazaar of Old Shanghai. Here, your guide offers insight on Chinese traditions while you have the opportunity to chat and bargain with local merchants in this coastal city.
To balance the bustle of the modern city, you will seek solace in the Chenghuangmiao (Temple of the town God), the central shrine for Taoist worship in China. Dating back to 1403, the temple's main courtyard is still active with worshippers. Next, take a unique approach to the Xintiandi district, which retains the antique charms of Old Shanghai while gentrified to international levels of chic with an impressive number of galleries, bars, cafes, boutiques and restaurants.
Meet local residents while you stroll with your expert guide through the city, a modern mega-metropolis with unique historical surprises at every turn. You'll wander along intricate alleys past shikumen-style buildings toward the famous Xintiandi entertainment district, ending with a vista over Shanghai's world-famous skyline.
