Zhujiajiao is the water town I recommend from Shanghai, and these half-day trips are the easiest way to see it. The village sits about an hour west of the city, laced with canals and stone bridges. Fangsheng Bridge, the big five-arch span, dates to the Ming dynasty.
Hailed as an extraordinary journey, the Zhujiajiao Water Town and Shanghai City Private Day Tour promises an enchanting blend of history, culture, and culinary delights.
