Summary: For many tourists, Beijing and Shanghai, those two ancient but fashion cities are the main destinations of China - for their unique and self-contradiction charm. Beyond the “concrete jungle”, Beijing presents its royal manner thoroughly. Its majestic Great Wall, dignified Forbidden City and grand Summer Palace are telling you the ancient glories of this time-honored city. While in Shanghai, Yu Garden and Jade Buddha Temple, hidden in the shadow of the skyscraper, recall the memories of their past days. But as life still goes on, a brand new Shanghai is waiting – take a visit to the People’s Square and the “Xintiandi”, to compare the ancient and the new.
