Shanghai in €480s-€580s rtn

With towering skyscrapers, an endless supply of bright lights, and an iconic skyline, it's easy to see why people flock to Shanghai.

But you don't have to just experience the hustle and bustle because there are so many tranquil places nearby you can take a day trip to. 

You'll find some recommendations for the best ones here, but it's the emerald waters, beautiful pagodas, and stunning natural scenery that makes Hangzhou West Lake our top pick :-)
