Zhujiajiao Ancient Town
9:30 AM – 11:30 AMExplore Zhujiajiao Water Village In centuries past Zhujiajiao (/joo-jyaa-jyaoww/) was a trading area: the many canals were used to ferry products along in little boats and barges. Boats are still very much part of the charm of the place. Small boats are ubiquitous there, functioning as a nice way to get a view of the town and experience local life. See our cruise guide on Zhujiajiao. It is recommended to take a gondola on the waterway to view the face of old town from a different angle at your pace. Your group will be 3 to 10 people, offering good flexibility. If you want some more time for taking photos, or you have more questions about the history and architecture, just let your guide know.

Across the riverside street you will see some of the most unique and wonderful buildings of colonial Shanghai. To avoid a "just-a-glance" superficial experience, when we walk on the Bund, our guide will present an In-depth introduction. On a map we label the 17 most-representative buildings and document the architecture of Shanghai. What you will get is not only a few photos of the new buildings, but also the history and historic images of its colonial past.
