Overview

Escape Shanghai for an unforgettable day at Shenxianju, one of eastern China's most spectacular mountain destinations. After early hotel pickup, take a high-speed bullet train to Xianju, followed by a private transfer to the scenic area.

Discover dramatic volcanic peaks, mist-filled valleys and Avatar-style landscapes reminiscent of China's famous mountain scenery - all accessible from Shanghai in one day without a domestic flight or overnight stay.

Ride the cable car and use convenient escalators to reach the main scenic areas with less strenuous climbing. Explore spectacular cliffside trails, cross the iconic Ruyi Bridge, visit Lotus Platform and admire Guanyin Peak while enjoying breathtaking views above the valleys.

After 4–5 hours of exploration, return by bullet train to Shanghai, where your driver will transfer you back to your hotel.
