5D4N Shanghai Sensation (2 to go)

Validity: 01 Jun 2007 - 30 Sep 2007

Tour Code : TSHA-SEN-SQ-A01N
 
Itinerary :

Day 01: Singapore / Shanghai (Meal on Board)
Assemble at Singapore Changi International Airport for departure flight to Shanghai. Upon arrival, transfer to hotel.

Day 02: Shanghai / Xintiandi Shikumen / Cheng Huang Mao / The Bund (Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner)
Xintiandi Shikumen: As a re-creation born out of the sprawls of Shikumen housing, which is the architectural symbol of Shanghai in the 20th century, Shanghai Xintiandi is an urban tourist attraction imbued with the city's historical and cultural legacies. Shanghai Xintiandi's Shikumen attraction was created by converting residential blocks into a multifunctional dining, retail and entertainment center flowing with restaurants, boutiques, cafes and bars of an international standard.
Cheng Huang Mao: The temple, or Cheng Huang Miao, is only a short distance from Yu Yuan. Once every city and large town possessed a temple to the town gods, but few have survived.
The Bund: The Bund (Wai Tan) waterfront area is a sweeping area along the Huangpu River that became the center of Shanghai's foreign business establishment and the symbol of Shanghai's identity as a modern city. The name "bund" is derived from an Anglo-Indian term meaning "muddy embankment," but after the 1920's the area became a showcase for foreign enterprises, with impressive Western-style banks, trading houses, hotels, consulates, and clubs filling the shore, with promenade along the river. British, French, American, German, Japanese and Russian facilities were built here, in styles ranging from Neo-Classical to Art Deco, giving the area a pronounced European flavor. Foreign enterprises and facilities were forced out after the Communist victory in 1949, and many of the buildings were occupied by government offices and banks. More recently many of the stately old buildings have been renovated in recognition of their status as historical and tourist sites.

Day 03: Shanghai / Pudong New Area / Shanghai Oriental Pearl TV Tower / People's Square (Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner)
Pudong New Area: Located east of the Huangpu River in an area that was devoted to farms and rice paddies little more than a decade ago, the Pudong Special Economic Zone occupies an area larger than old Shanghai itself. Designed to be the Wall Street of Asia, Pudong is the finance and business center of Shanghai, and headquarters for most of the multinational corporations and international banks active in Shanghai. Linked to the older Puxi part of the city by two cable bridges, the Yangpu and Nanpu, supposedly the 2nd and 3rd longest in the world; a new pedestrian tunnel; and the city's second metro line, Pudong houses dozens of new skyscrapers, though much of the district is still empty. The new Pudong International Airport opened in 1999. An eight-lane Century Boulevard provides a main ground transportation artery, and large expatriate housing developments are built or planned for outlying areas.
Shanghai Oriental Pearl TV Tower: It was completed on 1 October 1994. It is 468m high, being the highest in Asia and the third highest in the world. It stands opposite to the bund on the west bank. The architectural modeling of the tower is unique, expressing the flavor of oriental culture. The tower consists of 11 spheres, different in sizes and arranged at different levels, hanging from the sky down the green lawns. The body of the tower is formed of two huge glittering spheres and one small delicate sphere; the sightseeing level in the upper sphere is 45m in circumference, 263m high, offering a bird's-eye view of the city. In the upper sphere at the 267m level, there is a revolving restaurant, a disco ball, a piano accompanied bar and at the 271m level there are 20 KTV private rooms. The space cabin is at a level of 350m, containing a sightseeing terrace, a meeting hall and a coffee room. Hotel in the Air is in the five smaller spheres with 20 guest rooms. The lower sphere contains a space city. There is a science fiction city inside the tower pedestal. The Oriental Pearl TV Tower combines sightseeing, catering, shopping, recreation, accommodation, broadcasting and TV transmission into one body. It has become a symbolic architecture and a favorable spot for tourists in Shanghai.
People's Square: Located at the very center of the city, People's Square is a garden-type open space surrounded by buildings and facilities for administration, cultural activities, transportation and commerce. On its north is the People's Mansion, to its northwest the Shanghai Grand Theater, to its northeast the Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Hall, and to its south the Shanghai Museum. Flanked on both sides by 17m wide green belts, People's Avenue goes across the center of the square. The total green areas in the square reach 80,000 square meters. It is an oasis in the city.

Day 04: Shanghai Free at own leisure / Nanjing Road (Breakfast)
Shanghai has been famed as "the Shopping Paradise" and "the Oriental Paris" in history. Nanjing Road, China's No.1 Commercial Street is a must for all visitors; Huaihai Road, an elegant and cultural commercial attracts thousands of young people who search for the latest fashion trends, and Sichuan Road, a popular commercial street, is specially favored by the working classes. In addition, Hundred-year-old stores and shops that sell local special products and are well-known at home and abroad can be found in good locations. Shanghai is also famous for its great variety of local special products and artistic handicrafts.
Nanjing Road: Nanjing Road is Shanghai's busiest street. It starts at the Bund, south of the Peace Hotel, and runs west. It is the city's main shopping area with department stores, small shops, restaurants, theaters and cinemas lining up the street. To the south of Nanjing Road is the Renmin (People's) Park. To the west is the Municipal Library, which was built in 1894.

Day 05: Shanghai / Singapore (Breakfast)
