Happy times ahead: Explore Pudong’s most beautiful countryside by metro
Where should parents go on the weekend? Where should students go during the winter break? From late December to the end of January 2014, Metro Line 16 will take you on a journey between the Jiangnan water towns and the modern city. Several discounted one-day tour routes include must-visit spots in Pudong’s suburbs such as Xinchang Ancient Town, Shanghai Wild Animal Park, Strawberry Farm, China Maritime Museum, Dishui Lake, and Nanhui New Town—don’t miss them.
In addition, from New Year’s Day to Chinese New Year, a “Pudong New Year Flavor” map will cover ten major commercial, tourism, and cultural venues in the Linyang-Huamu area, including the Himalayas Center, Kerry Parkside, Lianyang Plaza, Big Thumb Plaza, Old Shanghai Tailor Street, Century Park, Science and Technology Museum, Shanghai Oriental Art Center, Pudong Library, and Long Museum. Their special Lunar New Year events will be highlighted. Along Fangdian Road, there will also be interactive discounts at malls, hotels, cinemas, and parks. Colorful lanterns, Spring Festival couplets, and a strong festive atmosphere will offer residents and visitors alike a culturally rich New Year celebration with distinctive Pudong characteristics.
