2. Shanghai Museum. Shanghai Museum is located in People's Square near Nanjing Road. Because of its unique architecture (circular building on a square foundation) and extraordinary scale, it is hard to miss it. You really shouldn't skip this historical treasure. This huge museum is often called one of the best museums in China, with a collection of various cultural relics (more than 65,438+0,000,000 pieces), depicting the history of this country. Highlights include gorgeous calligraphy, exquisite jade carvings, Millennium bronzes and traditional China costumes.
3. Zhujiajiao. Zhujiajiao in Venice, Shanghai is located 29 miles west of the city center. This ancient water town reached its peak in the Ming Dynasty, when its success as a commercial center led to the construction of its picturesque waterways. The area is still made up of many canals, and bridges connect tourists to dozens of charming narrow streets. Looking forward to finding a small cafe in the alley, a friendly crew providing amusement facilities, and a cave shop wearing souvenirs. Although recent tourists find Zhujiajiao's stroll lovely, commentators strongly recommend going this week, because the big crowd on weekends may hinder the experience.
4. Shanghai World Financial Center. Shanghai World Financial Center, like a giant bottle opener, is one of the tallest buildings in the world, shining in the sky. This building competes with the Oriental Pearl TV Tower for the best aerial view, showing a series of descriptions of digital Shanghai and the rapid development of the city. And that's only on the ground floor. Take the 49-second elevator, one of the fastest elevators in the world, to the 94th and 97th floors, where you will enjoy amazing panoramic views of the city. However, the real bright spot is on the 100 floor. Here, the Sky Trail-the highest observatory in the world-makes guests marvel at this China metropolis 65,438+0,555 feet above the ground.
5. Yu Garden. Yu Garden, covering an area of 5 mu, is the most respected green space in this city, and its history can be traced back to16th century. It took nearly 20 years to complete the garden. The original purpose was to become the private garden of Pan, an official of the Ming Dynasty, and his family. However, the garden finally suffered some blows and was once again occupied by Britain during the Opium War and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement. Despite the chaos, the garden is still intact. Today it is a beautiful leisure place and many people like it. Here, you will find six major scenic spots and 30 exhibition halls, including ornate buildings, such as decorative bridges and colorful pagodas, and private enclaves separated by "dragon walls" (partition walls with stone dragons at the top).
