The Yu Garden

SHANGHAI

SHANGHAI, means "by the sea" in Chinese, one of the world's largest cities with a population of 16 million. As the gateway to the Yangtze River, it was forced to open by the British in the First Opium War, this once sleepy fishing and weaving village was gradually changed into a colonial city. Dynamic is the best word to describe today's Shanghai. Having benefited a lot from China's opening policy and economic reforms, especially the opening of the Pudong Special Economic Zone since 1990, Shanghai is now an important base for industry and commerce, science and technology in China. It is well known as "Pearl of the Orient."
In this dynamic city, you can stroll along the Bund to feel the unique glamour of Shanghai, walk through the classical Yuyuan Garden, visit the Shanghai Museum, soar to the 88th floor of the Jinmao Building to see the stunning view of Shanghai and get lost on the villa-lined backstreets of the historic former French Concession.
