The programme

After leaving the port you will drive to city centre and drop off at Yuyuan Bazaar. Yuyuan Market, or Yuyuan Bazaar, is located next to the Yuyuan Garden. Originally there was just a temple (the City God Temple) that was built in the 15th Century. Today the area is also home to a lively market that specializes in traditional Chinese arts and crafts. You can pick some antiques, silk fans, bamboo articles, shell carvings, paintings, or you can try by your own some Shanghai Xiao Long Bao (Soup Dumplings), vegetarian buns or chicken soup to experience a little of the Shanghai culture. It is surely pleasing, and you will get back home with great souvenirs. Your tour will continute to the Bund, the Bund, Zhongshan Road is a wide avenue along the Huangpu River. The newly renovated promenade between the Wusong River and the Old Town is known as The Bund, the former “ Wall Street “ of the foreign powers. The name itself reflects those colonial days: “Bund” is an Anglo-Indian word meaning embankment or quai. On the west side of the Bund, people hurry along, darting in and out of office buildings, while the side that fronts on the river is used for strolling and recreation. In the evening, the esplanade that traces the water line is dotted with young couples walking hand in hand and whispering quietly to each other. Then return to port by coach.
