Luxury Holidays to Shanghai

Shanghai is in Eastern China and situated at the mouth of the mighty Yangtze River. It is China's financial centre and home to amazing restaurants, trendy bars, boutique shops, and some pretty incredible cultural sites - a wonderful addition to any luxury holiday to China.

What to expect from a Luxury holiday to Shanghai

Shanghai has had a unique and tumultuous history, growing in international importance in the 19th century. In the early 20th century the city became a bridge between the east and west and its reputation grew as Asia’s financial hub. Remnants of its colonial past are still evident throughout Shanghai today, giving it a very different feel from other Chinese cities.

It is a very popular tourist destination for foreigners and domestic travellers alike, offering beautiful landmarks such as the iconic Bund, the wonderful French Concession, and the beautiful Yuyuan Gardens. The booming business district of Pudong, with its landmark Oriental Pearl TV Tower, makes for great photographs, and it’s incredible to think that this whole area was farmland not that long ago.
