Flights to Shanghai
Located where the Yangtze River meets the East China Sea, Shanghai is a global financial center, home of the world’s busiest container port, and a city of 24 million residents.
The architectural wonders of this densely-populated metropolitan area are renowned. History buffs will admire the colonial-era buildings that line the waterfront promenade in The Bund and the traditional pavilions, towers, and altars at the City God Temple. Contemporary architecture fans will marvel at the futuristic spire of the Oriental Pearl Tower and the modernist 121-floor Shanghai Tower skyscraper.
Old Town Shanghai is the heart of the city’s origins and where Chinese traditions hold fast. Visit temples, enjoy a tea ceremony, and shop the bazaar for kites, jade jewelry, and chopsticks.
There are also several outstanding cultural institutions that beckon, including The China Art Museum, the Shanghai Natural History Museum, the Propaganda Poster Art Center, and the Power Station of Art.
