    Next, we will visit Yu Garden, the foremost of Shanghai's five classical gardens. It features winding paths, elegant rockeries and koi swimming in ponds. Jade stones and dragon-shaped walls add to its tranquil and peaceful atmosphere, allowing you to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. It is optional for you to visit Huxin Pavilion, where you can enjoy tea and pastries, but you should cover the cost yourself. However, since Yu Garden is closed every Monday, please message us in advance if your tour falls on that day and we will adjust the itinerary for you.
