Your guide will share the area's rich history.

After morning sightseeing, enjoy a recommended local lunch arranged by your guide.
In the afternoon, visit the century-old Jade Buddha Temple to see exquisite jade statues from Burma and explore various temple chambers while learning about religious culture.
Then, head to Pudong Island and walk the skybridge amid futuristic skyscrapers. View landmarks including Shanghai Tower, Oriental Pearl TV Tower, and Jinmao Tower. Take the world's fastest elevator to Shanghai Tower’s top observation deck for expansive city views.
