Shanghai, China’s biggest and most prosperous city oozes an atmosphere of vitality, and a dynamic which can rival New York in the United States and Paris of France in terms of modernity. Shanghai is the second largest ‘city proper’ in the world after Mumbai. In the center of China’s eastern coastline, it is one of China’s greatest cultural centers, and has a long history as a trading port and gateway for foreigners entering China. Shanghai’s gorgeous night scenery is one of the main highlights that will linger in visitors’ minds after their Shanghai travel experience.

Guilin is an ancient city on the shore of the mesmerizing Lijiang River in northeastern Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.The serene mountains, sparkling waters, and exotic rocks typical of karst landmasses in the Lijiang River basin have inspired the saying, “The landscape of Guilin is unmatched under Heaven.” Guilin was originally a vast expanse of sea until about one hundred and ninety million years ago, when, owing to the movement of the earth crust, the whole area rose and became land. The limestone bedrock, weathered and eroded by water, became today’s fantastic stone forests, peaks, underground streams and caves, thus adding truly unique features to Guilin’s already beautiful scenery.
