China Travel Tours
A journey to Shanghai will unveil a complex city struggling to quickly modernize while retaining ties to its colonial past. Amid all the skyscrapers, shops and apartment complexes, there are a number of beautiful and historic sites to see. Visitors will find great satisfaction in the Shanghai Museum, Yu Yuan Gardens, and the Huangpu River Cruise. The inspired traveler will see that the real beauty of Shanghai lies in less obvious activities, such as strolling the Bund, submerging yourself in the colonial architecture in the old French Concession, or sipping tea in Shanghai's oldest teahouse. In addition to Shanghai, your tour will take you to Kunming, known as the City of Eternal Spring. While there, you will visit the cliff sculptures on Xishang Mountain and get a bird's eye view of the grand Dianchi Lake. From there, Dali will be your next stop. Dali is the traditional city of the ancient Bai people and is near the three Pagodas, on the Chongsheng Monastery ruins. Additionally, you will feast your eyes on the snow capped peaks of the famous Tiger Leaping Gorge and then continue on to Lijiang to explore its antique shops, canals and cobblestone streets.
