In the morning, meet your tour guide at your hotel lobby and then start your Shanghai tour at the People’s Square, a spectacular garden-type open space in the heart of the city surrounded by buildings and facilities for administration, cultural activities, transportation, and commerce.
Next, be guided to visit the City Planning Exhibition Hall at People’s Square, the best and most visited museum in Shanghai which showcases the ever-changing face of Shanghai and is an essential visiting point for those interested in the evolution of the city.

Then, go to the Nanjing Pedestrian Road. The road stretches from the Bund east towards Hongqiao, with Shanghai’s center point People’s Square in the middle. Now Nanjing Road has turned into the number one site for shopping in the city. Wander from the eastern end of Nanjing Road to the Bund.
The Bund is one of the most famous landmarks in Shanghai. Standing on the bank of the Huangpu River, the 52 various buildings of different architectural styles including Gothic, Baroque, Romanesque, Classicism, and Renaissance are a symbol of Shanghai’s past.

After lunch, continue your Shanghai day trip to the new development zone in Pudong – Lujiazui Finance & Trade Zone. Take the elevator to the 88-storey Observation Deck of Jinmao Tower to have a bird’s-eye view of Huangpu River.
After that, head to Xintiandi – something like Lan Kwai Fong in Hong Kong and Clarke Quay in Singapore. Xintiandi is a fashionable pedestrian street composed of Shikumen and modern architecture style. At the end of the one-day tour in Shanghai, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Shanghai.
