Shanghai has grown from a provincial city into an international metropolis on par with New York and Paris in just ten years. For anyone who is interested in the history of modern China, Shanghai serves as an ideal starting point. Regarded as the 'Oriental Pearl', the city has a unique and important place in modern China and its rich heritage is worthy of exploration.
Shanghai, literally known as ‘a port on the sea’, is founded 700 years ago. It is located in the East of China, near Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces. Shanghai is one of the world’s largest seaports and China’s major industrial and commercial center.
As one of the historic and cultural cities in China, Shanghai has over 70 sites of historical interest and cultural relics under the protection of the state and municipal governments, which best represent the distinctive characteristics of Shanghai regional culture.
